As is the case with any other field of healthcare, dentistry can be split into many different categories. Endodontics is a specialty that only 3% of professional dentists are qualified in. but what does an endodontist actually do, and how can endodontics support you in the bid to gain greater control of your oral health?
Plaque and calculus are two terms that you’ll have almost certainly encountered when talking about oral health and general dentistry. Despite the fact that they are both related to the growth of bacteria on the teeth, using the two terms interchangeably isn’t quite accurate.
To prevent the buildup of tartar, otherwise known as calculus, it is vital to brush, floss and rinse using an antiseptic mouthwash. In this blog post, we are going to reveal everything you need to know about tartar, including what it is and how to remove it. 
Dental emergencies can be stressful and can be very painful, but with the right partners in treatment, you can address them calmly and quickly.
