The dental carina is the part of the tooth that separates the enamel-covered crown part of the tooth from the enamel-covered root. Exposed tooth necks are created by the recession of the gum tissue, exposing the tooth neck.
Exposed tooth necks result in teeth that are particularly sensitive to cold and warm stimuli.
The main cause is:
Poor brushing technique (proper tooth brushing technique).
- Toothbrush too hard
- long-used toothbrush.
The standard toothbrush replacement is once every two months. Exposed tooth cavities can also result from poor oral hygiene, the presence of tartar, as well as a poor and insufficient diet. The receding gums increase the risk of tooth decay, and last but not least, it is a symptom of a disease called periodontitis.
The natural treatment of exposed dental cusps consists mainly in:
practicing proper brushing techniques
- using appropriate toothbrushes, toothpastes and other dental aids
- visiting a dental hygienist at least twice a year
The recommended LYSS toothbrush is one of the finest on the market with 16,360 cleaning fibres, so you don't have to worry that even with the highest fineness, every corner of your cavity won't be beautifully clean. It is also recommended to massage your gums and, above all, change your approach to eating, more fruits and vegetables and less sweets and fatty foods. In addition to natural treatments, modern dentistry offers cosmetic gum reshaping, in which the gum is surgically pulled back so that the dental cartilage covers the gum again.
