Rejuv For Gums 1 oz: HF $14.39 REJUV™ for gums is perhaps the most powerful nourishing formula for gums available anywhere. A time-tested remedy of 24 plants and herbs used for healing and strengthening the gums, it is recommended for a whole range of oral conditions from receding gums, oral pain, swollen gums, swelling of gums and bleeding gums, to dry mouth. This unique, 'complete' product is unlike other products which can only target one oral problem. Some people have even said that it helped tighten loose teeth - REJUV™ can be used for all gingival conditions. REJUV™ for gums is the ONLY 100% herbal oral pain reliever and gum conditioner. Some of its plants and botanicals - like cassia and ficus bengalensis - have an astringent quality, said to be most useful for healing gum tissue. And research indicates that the sesame oil base (which soothes and nourishes, helps the herbs revitalize the gums and alleviate dry mouth conditions) has antimicrobial affects on subgingival plaque. In doing its healing, REJUV™ for gums also removes bacteria from the oral cavity, leaving the mouth fresh and revitalized. Made without chemical ingredients or alcohol, it allows nature’s full intelligence to help heal your gums and keep your mouth as healthy as ever. For best results apply REJUV™ for gums with DrTung’s gumbrush, designed for sensitive and receding gums. (Did you know that among Americans aged 35 to 44, 48 percent have gingivitis - or inflammation of the gums - and 22 percent have destructive gum disease? Older people have even more gum problems! ref: Surgeon General’s Report: Oral Health 2000) |

Walnut Creek Dentist: Dentist terms defined!
Dental Glossary: Definitions
Ever go to your dentist and wonder, "What the heck are they talking about?". Ever have a glazed over look when your dentist is talking to you? Ever wonder if your dentist is from a different planet or actually speaks English or simply Latin? Here's some common dental lingo to help you actually UNDERSTAND what your dentist or hygienist is saying to you.
Abscess. A swollen, inflamed, pus-filled area around a tooth, soft tissue, or bone. Usually caused by infection.
Amalgam. A common tooth filling made of a mix of silver, mercury, and other metals, generally used for the back teeth.
Bruxism. Tooth grinding or clenching, often stress-related and done at night.
Caries. The medical term for tooth decay or cavities.
Cavity. A soft, decayed area in a tooth.
Composite. A tooth-colored filling made of resin and quartz.
Crown (or cap). A dental appliance that covers a tooth to restore it to its normal shape and size. Crowns can be made of porcelain or metal.
Dentin. An inner layer of the tooth, found under the enamel. Dentin is one of the four major components of teeth.
Enamel. The outer part of the tooth. Enamel is the hard, calcified tissue that covers and protects the dentin.
Filling. A substance, like an amalgam or composite, that’s inserted into a cleaned and prepared hole inside a tooth.
Gingivitis. An inflammation of the gums caused by plaque and/or tarter. If untreated, gingivitis can lead to periodontitis, a destructive dental disease.
Impacted tooth. A tooth that’s still completely or partially beneath the gumline. Impacted teeth are generally pressed against another tooth, bone, or soft tissue. Wisdom teeth are often impacted.
Orthodontist. A dentist who specializes in caring for misaligned teeth with braces, retainers, and other dental appliances.
Periodontal. Care relating to the tissues and bones that support the teeth.
Periodontitis. Infection of the tissue that support the teeth. Advanced gum disease.
Plaque. Soft but sticky, plaque is made up of bacteria and accumulates on teeth. If left untreated it can lead to tooth decay and gum disease.
Root canal. The process of cleaning out and removing the nerves and blood vessels from inside the root of a tooth.
Tartar (also called calculus). A hard plaque that creates a rough surface on teeth, encouraging the accumulation of more plaque. Tartar can eventually lead to gum problems.
TMJ (temporomandibular joint dysfunction). TMJ refers to any jaw problems related to the temporomandibular joint, the joint that connects your lower jaw to your skull.
