So I have been going to the dentist for a while now. As of right now, I go to a pediatric dentist. Its pretty cool u can play videogames or watch movies while getting your teeth cleaned. Its a great place to go however CP makes it a little bit hard. So I thought I give you guys an insiders view of going to the dentist With CP.Disclaimer: CP effects every kid differently so while going to the dentist is hard for me it may not be hard for someone with CP whose mouth is not effected.
Now I am pretty mobile so getting into the chair is not a big deal for me but i think someone who has more mobily challenges with CP may need help getting into the dentist chair.
Open up
Ok so opening up is really hard for me because of CP. My mussels are really tight so its easier for me to keep my jaw closed. Which means talking and opening up wide is a challenge. I also have a bite reflex which means I may bite down if someone puts something near my mouth.
A solution
a bite block_ I do not like using this
Not having me keep my mouth open for a long period of time. So when it comes to flossing my teeth which I do not do a lot more in another post The dentist may floss a couple of teeth then let me close my mouth before reaping it. As I have gotten older I have tried to keep my mouth open for long periods of time I can do it but it takes a lot of effort.
X-rays
X-rays are really hard for me to do so sometimes I need to go under ( if I have a cavity) so they take them then
So parents self advocates how is the dentist for you or your child. Do you have any tips to share?

Dental Health Care is one of the best prevention programs to ensure fresh breath, healthy mouth and teeth for life. Dental diseases are not considered to be fatal. Hence very often people neglect the importance of oral hygiene.

It just shows how important it is to visit a dentist on regular interval!! so many things we dont understand and at times we do ignore minor problems which leads to further complications!!

Visiting the dentist regularly will not only help keep your teeth and mouth healthy, but will also help keep the rest of your body healthy.

If I'm right about what CP means then I can definitely understand how it can be hard to go to the dentist sometimes. There really are so many benefits for going to the dentist though. In the end, being able to have that check up, even if it's in your own time, really can be beneficial. That's from my own personal experience though. It definitely is different for everyone though. http://mountainviewdentalhealth.ca/new-patients/

I totally agree with your article. India has been one of my fav countries when it comes to holiday and nowadays thanks to the growth in dental tourism you can get great dental services at affordable prices. From my personal experience i have been to this clinic and have received really satisfactory results and also shared my review on the same.
We think that such tips are small but they really do matter sometimes and if we can take a charge of ourselves by following them then there's no issue of going into agony later. I have been to Dentzz Dental which is a multi-speciality clinic and post treatment or check ups they really guide you well like how to keep the oral health good etc. They also have the website where they keep on posting such helpful tips that are useful in maintaining good oral health.
