It is understandable that the excitement of pregnancy keeps you busy in many ways. A simple word of caution is recommended here: This is an especially important time to look after your dental health.

Actually, some would suggest that this is the time to really pay attention to overall health and well-being. There is an old saying about the number of teeth missing being equal to the number of children a mother gives birth too.

Though certainly not one-hundred percent accurate, there may be a kernel of truth in this. The fact is that women are more likely to develop gum health problems during pregnancy. Hormones have a great role to play in this scenario.
If you are a mother-to-be, pay special attention to your oral health. Do not be content with just brushing and flossing. Consider using a a good oral irrigator.

Another excellent product to consider would be an oxygenated, ph balanced mouthwash. There are many mouthwashes on the market but very few that harness the power of oxygen with a proper pH. The importance of this should not be overlooked.
Chew xylitol gum. Xylitol has been used in Finland since WWII and they have found that the incidence of dental disease is lower as a result. Xylitol is fine for human consumption but keep it away from pets.

Make sure there is someone looking at your gums a little more frequently during pregnancy – just to make sure that problems are not creeping in. As mentioned before, the probability for developing gingivitis / gum disease increases during pregnancy. If you do not know what you are looking for, then you need someone who can help. Besides, it is not so easy for a person to examine her own mouth.
Ask your practitioner about your pocket depths and how they relate to the health of your gums and teeth. Next, learn more about this topic from the next links.

Halitosis has really become an issue for people who practice proper hygiene. With all the products available in the market today, having unhealthy gums and teeth when paired with foul smelling mouth odor is a mortal sin.

You have to understand that there are different reasons for having halitosis and one could be due to dental problems. Several other reasons could be the medications you take for a certain condition and the kind of foods you eat.

These causes of bad breath are reversible. When dental problem is the issue, your dentist is always within reach – it can be costly to pay a visit to a dental pro but it becomes your best option when you have multiple decaying teeth. Try therabreath products – they are oxygenated and pH balanced.

With the issue of foods like garlic and onion – it will clear overnight. Many dentists advise the use of alcohol-free mouthwash for a safer and more effective rinse. A portable oral irrigator may be helpful – it’s easy to carry and can be placed in a purse or convenience bag.

Sinusitis could also be a cause of halitosis as the airway is affected. The person needs to breathe through the mouth, it adds up to the drying up of the oral cavity and thus become a breeding ground for anaerobic bacteria. The mucous also never clears up so it encourages the bacteria to multiply and later on lead to abscess or pus formation.

Can you imagine how that would manifest when the only exit for that smell is your mouth. It could really be repulsive but you become helpless the situation is out of control. It is time to consult your medical professional to correct your sinusitis problem. Halitosis can still be reversible at this point but the treatment may be more complicated.

Many people have some form of gum disease, perhaps as many as 80% of people living on this planet.

The mayo clinic states that by age 65 – 95% of people have some form of gum disease.

However, this does not have to be the case. There is nothing wrong with going to get your teeth cleaned every three months.

What you do at home is far more important, however.

The reason why is because the plaque that houses the harmful bacteria builds up every day. Therefore, to effectively stop the progression of gum disease, you must disrupt this plaque every day.

The longer the plaque is left intact, the more of the ‘bad’ or anaerobic bacteria will grow. The more they grow – the more toxic waste products they dump onto your teeth and gums.

These waste products can contribute to both cavities and gum disease.

If brushing and flossing alone were effective then it stands to reason that up to 80% of the population would NOT have some form of gum disease.

Therefore, it also stands to reason that you need more than just brushing, flossing and using a mouth rinse to prevent the progression of this disease to more serious forms.

The anaerobic bacteria that cause these problems do not like oxygen – therefore use an oxygenated mouthwash.

The anaerobic bacteria do like an acidic mouth – as is created by eating acidic foods and not taking steps to adjust your mouth pH afterwards. A pH balanced mouthwash will help with this as will chewing xylitol gum.

There are many additional things you can do to aid your dental health. Your dentist is correct, many much more serious disease have been linked to periodontal disease. Even ancient civilizations recognized that the health of the mouth reflected the health of the body! Most people want to look at a horse’s teeth before buying him…

You can stop the progression of this disease by taking the right actions and by educating yourself about what else you can do besides regular brushing and flossing. At the early stages you can have a very, very good chance of preventing things from progressing to a more advanced stage.

Educate yourself and you can have health gums and teeth for a lifetime!

Hey, It’s me.

I just wanted to queue you in to a sale that is happening right now on products that I think are top notch.

As the author of the book: What You Should Know about Gum Disease , I am saying with confidence that, in particular, the perio therapy and aktiv-oxigen serum are powerful products that have helped me with my dental health.

In addition, for people with bad breath the K-12 products and regular mouthwash should be of interest to anyone with concerns about their breath.

I would not underestimate these products that were created by a dentist named Doctor Katz.

I believe the sale ends on Thursday (7-30-2009) sometime… just so you know.

If you have any questions at all, twitter me @davesnape or visit http://www.twitter.com/davesnape so that you can contact me.

Sincerely,

David Snape

-Stay positive always….

PS: You might try to get some additional savings by using coupon code b-fg5. I’m not sure if it will work with this sale or not, but it is worth a try.

A note from the TheraBreath warehouse…

Hi Dave -

The end of our fiscal year is almost here and that means we have to do inventory. Ugh…

Before we start counting every bottle and every tube of our critically acclaimed TheraBreath Toothpaste and Mouthwash, we thought we would make things easier on ourselves and have a massive WAREHOUSE LIQUIDATION SALE. We figured that the more we sell, the less we will have to count!

For the next 72 hours (Tuesday July 28th – Thursday July 30th) just about every formula we have in stock will be on special. Just buy 2 of any sale item, and get a third of the same item at no charge to you – not even any additional shipping and handling!

In addition, any order over $99 will receive FREE SHIPPING within the continental US*. This all adds up to a lot of savings. If you’ve been thinking about stocking up on mouthwash, toothpaste, teeth whitening supplies, or any of our other quality oral care products… now would be a very good time to do so!

Not sure how this one slipped past my radar until now, but it happens sometimes. I always try to tell you about the good deals out there.

There is a sale right now, buy 2 get one free. Here are the products that are on sale:

You can get some good deals now, but the sale is ending soon.

Specifically for gum disease, look for anything labeled Perio Therapy -

These are the gum disease fighting mouthwashes and toothpastes.

What is special about them?

They have pecially formulated oxygenated compounds.

If you have read my book, then you already know about the Perio Therapy formulas.

If not – The bacteria responsible for gum disease are anaerobic in nature. Oxygen kills them.

There are very few mouthwashes on the market that have oxygenated compounds in them. Perio Therapy is one of them.

Perio Therapy formulas also contain other powerful ingredients such as zinc and pyrophosphates – pyrophosphates are for stopping / reducing plaque build up.

And you’ll be happy to know that Therabreath sells my book as well. (though it is not part of the special)

Check out the Perio Therapy and other products on special at:

http://tinyurl.com/cka9c8 <–

Hint: They have lots of bad breath fighting products too – including those for fighting your dog’s bad breath!

But hurry, the counter on their website says the sale ends in less than 14 hours at the time I sent this message was posted (11:33 AM 4/30/2009)

Let me know if you have any questions!

Tip: Try using one of the coupons at http://www.therabreathcoupon.com to increase your savings further.

I’m not 100% sure that works, but I think it might… Can’t hurt to try.
