If you are looking for dental information online there are several great sources of information to read. First, thanks for stopping by here at http://www.teethremoval.com.
If you are looking for great information from a dentist online, I would highly recommend Dr. David Leader. He frequently writes articles (usually at least once a month). You can view his articles over at http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/1435/dr_david_leader.html. Some of the more recent article titles include “What Causes Cavities,” “Oral Surgery – Before and After,” and “Reasons to Call your Dentist.”
Another source of dental information is the ADA (American Dental Association) News Today. They have many updated articles on dentists and various dental programs throughout the country. You can visit ADA News Today at http://www.ada.org/prof/resources/pubs/adanews/index.asp.
There are many other websites and blogs that provide useful and informative dental information. Many have been covered before on this blog and site. If you have more you would like to share please post below in the comments!
Bibby library at the Eastman Institute for Oral Health has put together a list of websites that would be useful for dental patients. See: http://delicious.com/hsltbibby/patientinformation
It is very easy to get a cut in your mouth while at the dentist( sharp metal tools) that could lead to a possible infection, from what I understand anyone with heart problems has to be very careful about this. I had to take antibiotics before every dental appointment for thirty five years( the just discontinued that for me).
I found an article, written more with athletes in mind, that recommended that patients who are going to undergo dental surgery should ask about receiving antibiotics as a preventive measure.
