<i>Mouth preparation for Ramadan</i>
Fresh mouth is very necessary for the fresh breath, which makes you more comfortable in daily life. Especially in the month of Ramadan, life style is a bit different than other months. Since it is obligatory by God, we have to obey this rule. But we can make the rule more favorable and comfortable for us.
During Ramadan, we take lots of different type of extra food at different time. So, 100% fit mouth is a must in this month. Otherwise you may suffer from different painful situation.
The problems those may raise are as follow:
1) Bad odor from mouth all day long
2) Severe pain because of grossly carious of any teeth
3) Periodontal pocket full of rotten food
4) Bleeding gum on touch because of severe periodontitis followed by moderate gingivitis
5) Missing teeth is another problem
6) Severely erosive and abrasive teeth
7) Sensitive teeth in contact with hot, cold or sweet food
8) Apthus ulcer which is too much painful
9) Any type of apical lesion etc.
When above mentioned problems raise, you may not be able to do anything during fasting.
So before Ramadan you have to visit a dentist for check up and take necessary measures to avoid sudden painful attack.
