One of these things you can control is your daily dental routine. It may seem simple, but just making sure you brush your teeth for two minutes, flossing thoroughly and rinsing with an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mouthhealthy.org\/en\/ada-seal-products\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"ADA-approved mouthwash (opens in a new tab)\">ADA-approved mouthwash<\/a> can not only make you feel like you have a sense of normalcy, but also helps to keep your mouth clean and germ-free. When we are told to keep ourselves extra clean, your mouth is included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, accidents will happen, and we will need to seek <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hbadvanceddentalspecialists.com\/huntington-beach-contact-us.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"professional help (opens in a new tab)\">professional help<\/a>. Because they won\u2019t be readily available to the public, it is important to know how to identify and soothe yourself until it can be professionally looked at. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a toothache arises, try some simple at-home tips.\nGargling with warm saltwater will help relieve pain and clear out any bacteria.\nIf it\u2019s swelling, apply a cold compress and take some over-the-counter pain\nrelievers, like ibuprofen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019ve chipped or cracked your tooth, it is likely that it will need to be looked at. If it gets jammed or loosened, gently try to straighten it. Wrap it with some gauze or tissue to stabilize it until you can get it looked at. If it is knocked out, don\u2019t touch the root and give it a quick rinse with cold water or milk. All of these are considered dental emergencies and your dentist will be the best advice as to what actions need to take place immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you would like to find out more about dental hygiene, contact Dr. Gamarnik&nbsp;at 714-842-5626 to schedule a consultation or visit&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/hbadvanceddentalspecialists.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.hbadvanceddentalspecialists.com&nbsp;<\/a>for additional information.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dr. Gamarnik proudly serves Huntington Beach and all surrounding areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all know our daily lives have been flipped upside down, but we need to remember that there are some things that we can actually control and having even this minor sense of control is important.
