Mouth Care

Pyorrhea or periodontitis refers to an advanced stage of periodontal disease in which the ligaments and bones that support the teeth become inflamed and infected. It is usually a result of gingivitis a periodontal disease that infects the gum through plaque leading to the formation of a pocket between the teeth that trap the plaque. If left untreated pyorrhea can cause halitosis bad breath in which the jaw bone is slowly eroded due to painful and bleeding gums. Eventually the loss of tooth support can cause tooth loss and this disease is the primary cause of tooth loss in adults. In order for this stage to be avoided those with pryorrhea should contact their periodontist for treatment.

The four reasons why dental works should be included as part of the universal health care system. Firstly, poor oral hygiene can lead to a variety of dental and medical problems such as gum disease, infection, bone loss, heart disease, strokes and more. Regular check ups and cleanings can prevent these problems as well as provide you with good oral hygiene. Secondly, having toothaches are caused by tooth problems, such as a dental cavity, a cracked tooth, an exposed tooth root, or gum disease. A toothache may be caused by a problem not originating from a tooth or the jaw. Pain around the teeth and the jaws can be symptoms of diseases of the heart such as angina or heart attack, ears such as inner or external ear infections, and sinuses air passages of the cheekbones. Thirdly, periodontal gum diseases, including gingivitis and periodontitis, are serious infections that, left untreated, can lead to tooth loss. Periodontal disease can affect one tooth or many teeth. The main cause of periodontal disease is bacterial plaque, a sticky, colorless film that constantly forms on your teeth. However, factors like the following also affect the health of your gums. It doubles the risk of stroke, triples the risk of heart attack, increases the incidence of premature, low weight babies and also contributes to bronchitis, pneumonia and emphysema. Fourthly, when there is an excess of sugar in the diet, this weakens the immune system and creates an acidic environment thus oral health suffers. Oral infection can stress the immune system and diminish the ability to deal with other infections, illness, and disease. Ongoing low-grade bacterial infection also burdens the immune system.

The benefits of having dental works as part of the universal health care system are we can have dental treatment for free. Stress can be prevented if they are free from pain, promote healthy diet, regular checkups are essential to maintain the healthy teeth, frequent cleaning of the teeth after eating and avoiding tooth decay and gum disease.

Good dental health is important part of general overall health of a client to live long and healthy. It would help to improve the appetite and decrease the amount of disease, diabetes, emphysema, stroke and chronic obstruction pulmonary disease (COPD).

CULTURE AND DIVERSITY : Things that should be done to aid new immigrants to help them settle in Manitoba

There are so many things that should be done to aid new immigrants to help them settle in Manitoba. First and foremost is to go to Service Canada to get Social Insurance Number (SIN) on any designated area nearest you. Second, is to go to Manitoba Health Insurance to get the Manitoba Health Card at 300 Carlton Street. Third, enroll to Entry Program at Unit 400 - 259 Portage Avenue to know everything about Canada like housing, banking, education, employment, child care, government and taxes. Lastly, to know more about settlement in Manitoba you can also visit Immigration Center at 100 Adelaide Street.

            You can easily adapt to any culture by respecting them because every nation has a different culture to know and understand by everyone. You can simply adapt to weather by wearing proper clothes especially winter time, you have to wear sweaters, jacket, gloves, toques, scarves and boots.

Brian Sinclair Case

I believe the healthcare system of Canada was definitely doesn’t have any intentions of purposely letting a human being die with no assistance as the case with Brian Sinclair. As seen on video Brian was approached by a triage nurse to offer assistance although said that he was not registered. It is the triage nurses responsibility to assess and find the proper care for the patient. I find it impossible for no one to see a man sitting there for 34 hours straight with no ability to use the washroom or be in a comfortable position to lay and rest. 

Although the waiting room is not visible to the triage nurse from where they are because of the crowd it should not have taken long to especially notice a man in a wheelchair who can't even talk and actually speak to ask someone for help. In some ways it could have been a race issue but race culture or background if even should be last to judge about someone especially when it is in a life and death situation. Innocent people like Brian who doesn’t choose to be in the situation he was, shouldn't be a victim of taking his life away for unknown reason. 
            On another note, where is Brian’s family? How can a man in such a condition bring himself to the hospital with no family by his side? But now there is nothing left to do to bring him life back they're asking for money in return. Being at his side and taking care of him in the first place could have been save Brian’s life and they could be with him right now instead of fighting for the 1.6 million they want in return. There should not have a price to replace a human beings life. If the right people were doing their job no matter who the person is, Brian could still be alive getting medically treated properly enjoying life with us, as we speak.

Let him rest in peace…
