In this insightful episode, I’m joined by Dr. Amineh, an experienced dentist, to talk about a topic that’s rarely discussed but incredibly important-oral hygiene and how it changes during menopause. We cover everything from the challenges women face during this phase to practical tips for maintaining dental health. Here's what you'll learn:
1. How Menopause Impacts Your Oral Health
Hormonal changes during menopause don’t just affect mood and sleep-they can also lead to a host of oral issues like dry mouth, gum sensitivity, and even an increased risk of cavities. Dr. Amineh explains how declining estrogen levels can impact your gums and teeth and what to watch out for.
2. Signs You Need to Be Aware Of
Do you notice your gums bleeding more than usual? Or perhaps your mouth feels drier, and your teeth more sensitive? Dr. Amineh breaks down the early signs of oral health issues that menopausal women commonly face, and why it's important to stay vigilant about these changes.
3. Best Practices for Maintaining Dental Health During Menopause
Dr. Amineh shares her top dental care tips for women in menopause, including the best brushing and flossing techniques, mouth rinses to combat dry mouth, and how often you should visit your dentist for check-ups and cleanings. Simple adjustments to your routine can make a big difference!
4. The Role of Nutrition in Dental Health
You are what you eat-especially when it comes to your teeth and gums! Learn how certain foods and supplements (like calcium and vitamin D) can support your oral health, and which ones to avoid to protect your teeth.
5. Why Dental Check-Ups Are More Important Than Ever
Maintaining regular dental appointments is essential, especially during menopause. Dr. Amineh discusses why early detection of oral health issues is critical and how dental professionals can help you manage the changes happening in your mouth.
