26/3/20. Rember when doing simple things such as taking the bins back in after they're emptied to WASH YOUR HANDS. Bin Men touch up to 2000 bins each day so take care.
28/3/20 I'm indebted to Templehill Dental Surgery for the following :-
With the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, we are still closed and unable to see any patients until the Chief Dental Officer advises us otherwise. We are still operating a dentist rota on our phones who will reply to any messages between normal opening hours. However, here’s some advice if you have dental Problems at the moment.
There are a lot of conditions that don’t require urgent attention. Here’s a list of common problems we see and what you can do to help.
Toothache
Regular painkillers if you need them. Good oral hygiene with a fluoride toothpaste and reducing your intake of sugary foods will help ensure any decay won’t get worse
Bleeding after extractions
Apply pressure to the socket. Bite on a clean handkerchief or cloth – not tissue paper, for 30 minutes. If this doesn’t work call the practice.
Pink saliva and a little bit of oozing from the socket is normal. Avoid hot drinks and alcohol. Don’t rinse your mouth for 24 hours.
Bleeding gums
These will improve if can clean your teeth and gums effectively. Brush for 2 minutes especially at the gum line and don’t forget to clean between the teeth with floss or interdental brushes. Corosdyl mouthwash may help but prolonged use can cause staining.
Dentures rubbing or loose
Use of a denture adhesive, like Fixodent or Polygrip may help. Seabond denture pads may make the denture more comfortable and stable. If there is a sharp edge an emery board can be used to smooth down.
Lost crown or veneer
Toofypegs can be used to restick lost crowns or veneers at home. Good oral hygiene will help stop the tooth becoming decayed
Ulcers
Bonjela on the area that is painful before meals in particular.
Take painkillers if necessary
Rinse with saltwater to prevent infection
Use difflam mouthwash which you can get from the pharmacist.
Sensitive teeth
Teeth can be sensitive to hot and cold foods/drinks due to receding gums, large fillings or decay. Toothpaste for sensitive teeth can help apply to the teeth and leave overnight after brushing. Avoid sugary and acidic foods and drinks which may make things worse.
Lost filling/broken tooth
Emergency dental kits can be bought at the pharmacists to patch up tooth at home and are also available on Amazon. Take painkillers if required. Again good oral hygiene and low sugar intake will help.
Painkillers
Adults (Over 16)
Paracetamol 1g (2x 500mg) 4 times daily
Child doses – follow the advice on the pack. If you are unsure what you can take, check with your pharmacist
If you have a dental emergency which you cannot manage alone, please give us a call on 01292 313 447 between 9-5, Monday to Friday or NHS24 on 111 at weekend and evenings.
