Mönchengladbach. Even in the middle of the 19th century, every fourth adult man in Germany died of tuberculosis (TBC), also known as consumption. Today, the disease has almost completely disappeared from the consciousness of Germans. However, tuberculosis is still one of the most common infectious diseases worldwide, alongside HIV and malaria. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 9.6 million people were newly infected in 2014 and 1.5 million died.

In the following we would like to introduce you to our range of services for children. In addition to painless and anxiety-free treatments for children – also under general anesthesia or sedation – prevention plays an important role in our concept.

Overview of the range of services:

fillings

In our practice, very high-quality plastics (composites), compomers and glass ionomer cements are available for the treatment of milk teeth and permanent teeth.

Cement fillings: These have a slightly yellowish colour, are somewhat softer than plastic and are only “stuffed” into the tooth cavity. They are fully covered by the statutory health insurance. Plastic fillings: These are tooth-coloured and particularly smooth. They are bonded to the tooth using special bonding techniques. However, the costs for multi-layer fillings, which are characterised by higher load-bearing capacity and durability, are only borne proportionally by the statutory health insurance (in the posterior tooth area).

Almost every seventh three-year-old child already has tooth decay. How can parents prevent tooth decay? A dentist explains it – and reveals why a normal manual toothbrush is best

Even milk teeth should be cleaned regularly.

First the good news: Almost 80 percent of twelve-year-olds in Germany have caries-free teeth. Together with Denmark, Germany is the international leader with this figure. This was the result of a study commissioned by the Deutsche Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Jugendzahnpflege (German Dental Association), for which more than 300,000 children were examined nationwide.

Parents unsettled in dealing with Dr. Google

Although Swiss mothers and fathers make intensive use of digital child health guides, they are very uncertain about how to deal with them. Moreover, according to a ZHAW study, information from the Internet has no significant influence on the interaction between parents and the medical profession.

Monday 26 August, 2019

With a scratch in the neck, a reddened place at the upper arm or a pinch in the back, it is only a handle away: Doctor Google. Countless websites, forums, apps and social networks also offer advice for parents who want to find out about their child’s health and development. The ZHAW has now surveyed around 750 German-speaking parents of children aged between 0 and 24 months online and conducted focus group interviews with a selection of the parents and doctors surveyed. The ZHAW study, financed by the Käthe-Zingg-Schwichtenberg Foundation/SAMW, shows that the ZHAW study has been successful: More than 90 percent of parents use digital media to inform themselves about their child’s health and development. Primary sources are search engines and specific parent websites (47 percent). Social media (6 per cent) and apps (8 per cent), on the other hand, are used rather little. “In this respect, the results differ from other countries in which apps and social media play a much greater role,” says Julia Dratva, head of the study at the ZHAW Department of Health.

Daddy Longlegs – Brunch mit Power-Beere

The acai fruit has long been regarded as the absolute power berry and true beauty elixir of Hollywood stars. The Daddy Longlegs is the first Munich café dedicated to the superfruit and its superpowers. Surfers discovered the acai berry among the natives of Brazil. After an exhausting surfing day, they ate the flesh of the berry or drank the açaisaft produced by the coastal inhabitants. The positive effect became known throughout the Brazilian sports scene and the açai berry gained popularity.

Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth (tooth extraction, exodontics) without further surgical measures. Tooth damage after inflammation or accidents is often the cause. Here you can read everything about pulling a tooth, when to do it and what risks there are.
