Hygienists Love Enamelast 3 RDHs Share Their Reasons Why

Hygienists Love Enamelast 3 RDHs Share Their Reasons Why

Fluoride varnish can play a major role in preventive treatment—but bad flavors, unsavory textures, uncomfortable thicknesses, and off-colors of many varnishes have given countless patients not-so-pleasant experiences.

“ไม่เคยมีใครบอกว่ารสชาติมันแย่เลย” Mandy Faucette, RDH กล่าว “ในช่วงที่ผ่านมา ฉันมีคนไข้ [ผู้ใหญ่] จำนวนมากสนใจรสชาติที่ไม่ใช่รสมินต์ พวกเขาชอบ Walterberry™ และ Orange Cream มาก”

Faucette says pediatric patients appreciate the variety of flavors as well. “Children tend to like non-mint flavors, so they usually like the Bubblegum, Walterberry, and Orange Cream. They tend to gravitate toward those because they don’t have the spiciness of mint,” she says. “With Enamelast [varnish’s] non-mint flavors, I haven’t noticed kids saying it’s spicy at all. Even if it does end up on their tongue, they seem OK. We were using a different brand before, and if it got on their tongue, they were like, blahhh.”

“I would for sure use Enamelast [varnish] on me, because I know that it works, it’ll be palatable, and give me all the benefits I need in a varnish—plus, it’s sweetened with xylitol. I really like that,” Faucette adds.

Jeanie Gates, RDH, says flavor is a primary factor when choosing a fluoride varnish and she makes sure to try them herself before she uses them on anyone else. “Taste is a big part. If it’s awful, then no one is going to do it. So it has to taste good. But it also has to stay on [the teeth]. There are some other products that taste good too, but they’re off teeth in like half an hour.”

Enamelast varnish features a patented adhesion-promoting formula that enhances retention, providing superior fluoride release and uptake. “It’s absolutely the fluoride varnish I want used on me,” Gates says.

“Some of the other products I’ve used are very thick and yellow, they’re hard to spread and you can’t get it in the interproximal areas,” says Sheri Barton, RDH. “I like Enamelast [varnish] because you can get it into the interproximal areas near the gum line and it’s thin, so it spreads nicely.” She says it’s convenient for people who aren’t just heading home after their office visit. “It’s very thin and gives a nice clean coating, and it’s clear so patients can go back to work and not really notice it.”

Echoing Faucette and Gates, Barton gives a resounding,

“yes, definitely” when asked whether Enamelast varnish is her preferred fluoride varnish when she’s the patient. Along with the support of these three accomplished hygienists,

Enamelast varnish has been named a “Top 100 Product” by Dentistry Today and won six Reality Four Star Awards. Flavor, texture, a nearly invisible appearance, and ease of application make Enamelast fluoride varnish a favorite among patients and clinicians alike.

5 Questions Test Your Brushing Brainpower!

Prawat Junsomboon — Thu, 12 Nov 2020 08:25:06 +0000

Proper brushing is the thing that everyone should be as important as choosing a healthy diet. Besides physical health, oral health is one of the things that, when problems arise, cause the greatest suffering to people.

1. Let’s start with the brush. Which type of brush is most effective?

A regular manual toothbrush

Wrong! 0 point

A power toothbrush

Wrong! 0 point

Either one! They're both effective.

Correct! 1 point
Both manual and power toothbrushes have what it takes to get the job done! Power brushes may be helpful for people who have trouble brushing on their own or are prone to more plaque buildup.

2. How often should you replace your toothbrush?

When your dentist gives you a new one

Wrong! 0 point

Every three to four months

Correct! 1 point

Your dentist might give you a new toothbrush at each visit, but make sure you are changing them between appointments, too. The bristles on your toothbrush wear out over time and a worn toothbrush won’t keep your teeth as clean. One way to remember to change your brush every 3-4 months? New season, new toothbrush.

Once a year

Wrong! 0 point

3. How much is too much toothpaste to use?

The full length of the brush’s bristles

Correct! 1 point

Adults and children age 3 and older should brush with a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste. Children younger than 3 should use a smear of fluoride toothpaste the size of a grain of rice.

Great job! Are you sure you’re not a dentist? Keep up the good work!

Keeping your mouth—and your body—in good health comes down to a few healthy habits. In addition to brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, remember to clean between your teeth daily. Eating a healthy diet that keep sugary snacks and beverages to a minimum is not only good for your overall health, it goes a long way to fight tooth decay because sugar fuels the bacteria that causes cavities.

Light is not a bright idea in teeth bleaching

Prawat Junsomboon — Tue, 29 Sep 2020 09:26:20 +0000

Proof was given back in 2006 that the use of lights as an enhancer in the cosmetic bleaching of teeth was unnecessary and potentially harmful. But dentists are still using teeth-whitening lights.

Whitening teeth at the dentist. The manufacturer of bleaching systems claims a combination of a bleaching compound and light is the most effective. Norwegian researchers scoff at the claim. (Video: denvilledentist/Youtube)

Many Norwegian dentists offer treatment that will give you whiter teeth, but their methods vary.

Some dentists augment bleaching agents with a so-called accelerator light, in some cases this is a laser light, whereas others use the bleaching agent alone.

All boast that their method is the best.

Several advertise that their teeth whitening system has been used in TV series such as “Extreme Makeover”. These shows are from the USA, which is also where most of the cosmetic bleaching systems come from.

Norwegian scientists gave these bleaching systems a thorough investigation six years ago. They concluded that the light used was both unnecessary and possibly harmful.

Dentists we have interviewed say they trust the marketers of bleaching systems, who insist the light treatment is a must. So they continue to use special light when whitening patients’ teeth with bleaching agents. Independent product information is hard to access, as neither bleaching systems nor dental products used in Norwegian mouths are under public control.

Doubling of sales

In 2006 Norwegian researchers at Nordic Institute of Dental Materials (Niom) decided to find out whether such light has any effect in teeth bleaching.

They also observed that this cosmetic whitening of teeth was becoming more in demand. Retailers informed of a doubling in sales of bleaching agents in just a few years. Marketing efforts have been intense and directed at dentists as well as patients.

Niom wanted to study the bleaching systems – the combinations of bleaching compounds and lighting – that were being used in Norway.

No effect

The Niom researchers tested seven bleaching systems, including the Opalescence and Zoom system, which was very popular.

They bleached teeth with and without the use of light. The result was the same; teeth were whitened just as well without the light.

The only effect they registered was that the heat from the lamps made teeth drier, so they looked whiter right then and there.

The researchers reported:

“As there is no clear documentation that light enhances the bleaching result, but could be detrimental to health, we advise against the use of light in teeth bleaching.”

Can injure mucous membranes

After that, no concrete studies of side effects of light have been made in Norway according to Niom.

“It’s more of a risk consideration. Superflous use of light can cause photoallergic reactions,” explains Niom Director and Researcher Jon Dahl.

UV radiation in the bleaching light could harm mucous membranes in the mouth.

Seven years after the Niom study, many Norwegian dentists are still using bleaching light.

Never considered it

Linda Evang is a dentist and owner of a practice on Akersgata in the centre of Oslo.

None of the dentists at her office use lights in connection with cosmetic bleaching.

“We learned from the study that the light had no effect so we have never considered using light in bleaching,” says Evang.

She doesn’t know why others might opt to use it, but says that little is taught about bleaching at dental school.

“Product information and advice is generally issued by the Norwegian Dental Association and HELFO runs courses and issues information,” she adds.

HELFO is the Norwegian Health Economics Administration, a subdivision of the Directorate of Health.

Trusting producers

We have contacted a number of Norwegian dentists who offer bleaching with light as part of the process. None were willing to be interviewed.

The dentists we talked to said they were aware of the Niom report but they choose to trust the manufacturers of the bleaching systems when they say light enhances the result.

Some of these dental offices have web pages which attempt to justify their use lighting systems, for instance that the light makes the bleaching work faster.

Niom Researcher Jon Dahl says that no comparison was made of the time it took to bleach teeth with and without light, but he doubts that it could expedite the process.

“We allowed the same time for bleaching with and without light. You would think if it takes less time with light then teeth would become whiter than when no light was used, since the elapsed time was identical.”

Dental Association: Light probably inessential

The head of communications of the Norwegian Dental Association, Morten H. Rolstad, is also award of the Niom report. It was published in the Association’s journal six years ago.

He hasn’t seen any new research results on the subject and thus presumes there are still grounds for saying the use of special lights is unnecessary in bleaching of teeth.

“But we don’t give advice about products,” says Rolstad.

“There is no prohibition against using light and perhaps it gives no additional effect,” he adds.

Little independent product information

He offers no opinion about dentists who continue to use light long after it was shown to have no effect but says that it does no harm:

According to Rolstad fewer independent tests of products are being made these days.

“Niom used to have test programmes for materials used in dental treatment but these have nearly come to a standstill. Independent product information is thus less available today than it was earlier.”

“But part of being an academically educated practitioner involves being able to find and evaluate such information yourself,” says Rolstad.

Doubts that producers misguide

Dentists often have to trust product manufacturers.

“Dentists get their information from various producers and suppliers, plus they read professional journals and attend courses.”

“Sellers of equipment and products are well versed in the profession and we have no reason to think they issue misleading information,” says Rolstad.

While new medications have to be approved by the Norwegian Medicines Agency, there is no corresponding public watchdog or organisation assessing products used in dental health.

Rolstad does not think there is any need for such control.

Doesn’t want stronger controls

“Nobody has requested more control, not even the health authorities. No need for more stringent control seems to be required.”

Where can consumers get unbiased information about which kind of dental treatment is the safest and best?

“There are online portals which provide good information to consumers and this is the responsibility of the public health authorities,” says Rolstad.

However, a search using the Norwegian word for teeth bleaching – tannbleking −at the governmental health website gives no hits.

The Increased Risk of Tooth Decay in Adult Athletes & How to Prevent It

Prawat Junsomboon — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 08:19:06 +0000

Children and their sippy cups and toddlers with their bottles are a well-known recipe for disaster when it comes to tooth decay, but with the rise in popularity of adult sports like road biking, mountain biking, and long-distance running, the risk once only assigned to toddlers has increased for adults.

The culprit? Sports drinks and energy bars. Thus, — fluoride varnish and dental sealants — once considered preventive treatments for kids, have become just as important for many adults, and the impetus for these extra measures of care lies with the dental hygienist.

Jent continues, “We have a whole new generation of adults that are becoming sports nuts and they’re eating nutrition bars that are sticky and full of dried fruit that get down into the occlusal surfaces, similar to how raisins and gummies get down into the occlusal surfaces of children’s teeth that we’ve been warning parents about for years. This also applies to chewable and gummy vitamins that adults are taking these days. In addition, and perhaps even more dangerous, is the amount of fitness drinks adults are consuming. Things like Gatorade, Powerade, or other fitness drinks that people like my husband will sip on for hours when they’re out on their mountain bike. These beverages are just as damaging to the teeth as a sippy cup or bottle would be to a baby’s teeth because of the pH of these beverages.”

Jent explains, “Tooth enamel begins to demineralize at a pH of 5.5. The pH of water, 7, is neutral. Soft drinks are way below that and in many or even most cases, fitness drinks, as far as acid content, fall even lower on the pH scale than soda. Fluoride toothpaste helps, but nasty habits make it very difficult to combat that. After enamel demineralizes, then dentin and cementum are exposed and those demineralize even faster than enamel when exposed to acid. That’s why it’s so important to protect the enamel with fluoride varnish and sealants before it gets to that point for adults, and the problem is, so many don’t even realize they’re at risk!”

So how should hygienists determine which adult patients need to take extra measures to ensure the long-term health of their teeth? Jent suggests that hygienists talk to their patients during their initial risk assessments. If an increased risk is determined, a treatment plan with fluoride varnish like the Enamelast® fluoride varnish and pit and fissure sealants like Ultradent’s UltraSeal XT® plus sealant or UltraSeal XT® hydro sealant should be prescribed.

Other risk factors that would potentially qualify an adult patient for sealants and a frequent fluoride varnish regimen include, but aren’t limited to, poor oral hygiene, eating disorders, infrequent dental care, alcohol and/or drug abuse. To see a full list of risk factors, click here.

Depending on risk, Jent recommends that adults get a fluoride varnish up to four times a year, even if they already have sealants. “When patients with sealants come in for their cleaning and recare visit, they should not forego a fluoride treatment. They need to protect all of the exposed enamel and dentin, including the occlusal areas adjacent to the sealant,” she says. “Hygienists need to have serious talks about fluoride varnish and sealants with their high-risk patients due to consumption of fitness beverages and bars, and with their extremely high risk patients due to dry mouth.”
