Fluoride:
Nature’s Cavity
Fighter
Fluoride (FLOOR-eyed) is a
mineral that occurs naturally in all
water sources even the oceans.
Fluoride can prevent cavities in
children and adults. Fluoride helps
protect tooth enamel from the
acid attacks that cause cavities.
It also helps repair weakened
enamel before cavities form.

Temporomandibular
Disorders (TMD)
DENTAL TREATMENT
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)
Do you have frequent headaches,
earaches, tender jaw muscles or a
dull, aching facial pain? Does your jaw
lock or stray to one side when you
open your mouth?
These aches and pains
may be related to the jaw joint, called the
temporomandibular (tem-PORO-man-DIB-
u-lar) joint or “TMJ,” and the muscles that
work to move the joint. When the source of
these problems is this joint or its muscles,
they are often referred to as “TMD” for
temporomandibular disorders.

Floss your teeth once a day to help remove food and plaque
from between your teeth and under the gum
line. Be patient with yourself and don’t give
up! It takes time to get the hang of flossing.
Your dentist or hygienist can show you the right way to
floss. Here are some tips that may help:
Flossing
I
Quick Reference
1. Break off about 18 inches of floss
and wind most of it around one of
your index fingers. Wind the rest
of floss around a finger on the
other hand. This finger will take
up the used floss.
3. When the floss reaches the
gum line, curve it into a “C” shape
against one tooth. Gently slide it
into the space between the gum
and the tooth.
2. Hold the floss tightly between your
thumbs and forefingers. Guide the
floss between your teeth, using a
gentle rubbing motion. To avoid
injuring your gums, never snap the
floss into gum tissue.
4. Hold the floss tightly against
the tooth. Gently rub the side of
the tooth with an up-and-down
motion. Try not to use a sawing
motion once the floss is worked
into place.
5. Repeat this method on the rest
of your teeth. As you move from
tooth to tooth, unwind the clean
floss with one finger and take up
the used floss with the finger on the
other hand. Do not forget to floss
the back side of the last tooth.
