Denture Care When Travelling

You want your smile to look its best no matter where you are, and having an organized plan for denture care can ensure that it will. Choose your meals and beverages carefully, bring along your own ‘denture friendly’ snacks for flights and long drives, pack the right cleaning products and tools, and remember to stick to your daily routine for the best results. Be proactive by taking the time to see your denturist before you travel. He can ensure your denture fits properly and is functioning as it should, which can help you avoid bigger problems while away from home.

Coping with Grief

Grieving the loss of a family member or a close friend is among the most painful of human experiences. The passage of time can ease these feelings, but grief can persist indefinitely. People who are grieving may find these coping strategies helpful: Write about your feelings in a journal. Talk to others who are grieving and share stories about your loved one. Also, you may want to finish a project they started, or volunteer for a cause they cared about. Spend time with family and friends to avoid isolating yourself. Ask for what you need, whether it’s practical help or emotional support and remember to accept help when it’s offered.

Protect Teeth from Acid Damage

Dental erosion is a form of tooth wear – where enamel and then dentin is worn down. It is defined as irreversible damage to the teeth caused by chemicals (usually acids). This acid can come from outside sources (e.g., food and drink) or from inside the body. External sources of acids include fruits and fruit juices (particularly citrus), soft drinks, sports drinks, wine, and vinegar. Internal acidic sources include stomach acids (think acid reflux and other gastric disorders), as well as frequent vomiting. Dental erosion is preventable. Rinsing with a natural mouthwash or water after eating can help neutralize the acid exposed to your teeth and gums.

Ask The Expert

Q. How do I help someone with untreated hearing loss this Holiday Season?
A. Too often, people with hearing loss withdraw socially, even during the holiday season. Be sure to:
• Turn down the volume. Keep background music and TV at a softer volume so conversations are heard more easily.
• Face each other and stay close. It’s easier for the person with hearing loss to follow conversations when they can lip-read at a close distance.
• Encourage them to have a hearing test. It’s one of the most meaningful things you can do this holiday season.
