Welcome back to the program.
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
We've been
covering pain in the series
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.10
on the Ultimate Prescription.
00:00:04.13\00:00:05.47
And today's topic we're
talking about oral pain,
00:00:05.50\00:00:07.64
and that's pain in the mouth,
00:00:07.67\00:00:09.00
sometimes your
teeth and the nerves,
00:00:09.04\00:00:10.71
or your tongue,
everything's in the mouth.
00:00:10.74\00:00:12.41
And we've got a
bunch of questions
00:00:12.44\00:00:13.78
that have come
in from our website.
00:00:13.81\00:00:15.14
And we want you to visit,
00:00:15.18\00:00:16.51
if you have a question
visit HeartwiseMinistries.org.
00:00:16.54\00:00:19.08
And there's a lot of
good health resources there,
00:00:19.11\00:00:21.35
you can also request
prayer for your health issues,
00:00:21.38\00:00:23.59
and you can also ask the doctor
for personal health advice,
00:00:23.62\00:00:27.22
and, Dr Markham,
00:00:27.26\00:00:28.59
welcome back to the program.
00:00:28.62\00:00:29.96
Well, it's nice
to talk about pain,
00:00:29.99\00:00:31.33
and you've got some
little ones at the home
00:00:31.36\00:00:33.29
that's going to be
having oral pain soon, too.
00:00:33.33\00:00:34.66
Yeah.
00:00:34.70\00:00:36.03
In fact just recently,
just last week my son Hayden,
00:00:36.06\00:00:38.37
he's 18 almost
19 months old now.
00:00:38.40\00:00:41.17
He's been teething
again and, you know,
00:00:41.20\00:00:43.30
just kind of
fussy and cranky and...
00:00:43.34\00:00:45.04
So I remember what I
used to do with my kids,
00:00:45.07\00:00:47.48
what do you do with
your kid what's the newest,
00:00:47.51\00:00:49.38
latest way to treat oral pains.
00:00:49.41\00:00:52.01
Lots of snuggles and cuddles
and then there's actually...
00:00:52.05\00:00:54.65
Oral gel or something?
00:00:54.68\00:00:56.02
Yeah, there's a gel
00:00:56.05\00:00:57.39
and there's also
just a medication
00:00:57.42\00:00:58.79
that we just
drop and it helps numb
00:00:58.82\00:01:00.49
some of the pain.
00:01:00.52\00:01:01.86
Yeah, well, that's, that's
00:01:01.89\00:01:03.22
because they don't know
what the pain is coming from.
00:01:03.26\00:01:05.03
Right.
00:01:05.06\00:01:06.39
And I think that's
an important concept
00:01:06.43\00:01:07.76
and a pain from
anywhere, especially oral pain,
00:01:07.80\00:01:10.60
if you don't know
what's causing the pain,
00:01:10.63\00:01:12.60
it always increases
your anxiety and stress
00:01:12.63\00:01:15.07
which makes the pain worse.
00:01:15.10\00:01:17.04
If you have
control over the pain
00:01:17.07\00:01:18.61
and know about it,
00:01:18.64\00:01:19.97
you know, know when to worry,
00:01:20.01\00:01:21.34
when not to worry, who to go to?
00:01:21.38\00:01:23.61
I think that we know
that helps lower the stress
00:01:23.65\00:01:25.81
of the body
00:01:25.85\00:01:27.18
which turns off
some of those chemicals
00:01:27.22\00:01:28.85
which makes the
pain even more pronounced
00:01:28.88\00:01:31.12
and that's what
we're trying to do here,
00:01:31.15\00:01:32.49
you know, I bet,
I'm not an expert,
00:01:32.52\00:01:34.29
I don't know a lot of,
00:01:34.32\00:01:35.66
you know, I don't
see a lot of people
00:01:35.69\00:01:37.03
with oral pain every day
00:01:37.06\00:01:38.39
but by learning
some basic principles
00:01:38.43\00:01:40.26
and sharing
00:01:40.30\00:01:41.63
hopefully this
will let them know
00:01:41.66\00:01:43.00
what to do, who to go
to, where to go to for help.
00:01:43.03\00:01:45.07
That's right.
00:01:45.10\00:01:46.43
Now we talked a little bit
00:01:46.47\00:01:47.80
after break
about processed sugar.
00:01:47.84\00:01:49.50
Yeah.
00:01:49.54\00:01:50.87
I mean everyone
struggles with processed sugar.
00:01:50.91\00:01:52.24
You know a couple of
years ago my wife was pregnant,
00:01:52.27\00:01:55.11
we didn't have any kids
yet, my wife was pregnant
00:01:55.14\00:01:56.75
and we went on vacation
00:01:56.78\00:01:58.35
and I had tried to
join this ten day challenge
00:01:58.38\00:02:01.28
where I was going to learn
about all the different kinds
00:02:01.32\00:02:03.05
of refined sugars and learn all
00:02:03.08\00:02:04.52
the different names cos it comes
00:02:04.55\00:02:05.89
in a ton of different names,
00:02:05.92\00:02:07.39
and I was trying to
avoid it for ten days
00:02:07.42\00:02:08.99
but that ten days
overlapped the vacation
00:02:09.02\00:02:11.49
and that's not a good strategy.
00:02:11.53\00:02:12.96
Let me tell you
00:02:12.99\00:02:14.73
I made it to the fifth day.
00:02:14.76\00:02:16.33
And I was
avoiding sugar pretty well.
00:02:16.36\00:02:18.43
And we were on
vacation, my wife was pregnant,
00:02:18.47\00:02:21.60
she wanted an ice cream cone.
00:02:21.64\00:02:23.10
Yeah.
00:02:23.14\00:02:24.47
And I couldn't
let her eat alone.
00:02:24.51\00:02:26.14
So we shared an ice cream cone
and I ended my challenge there.
00:02:26.17\00:02:29.31
But since then, it
was a good experience
00:02:29.34\00:02:31.28
because I've learned
more about where sugar is
00:02:31.31\00:02:33.98
eats and foods you
don't even think it's in.
00:02:34.02\00:02:36.58
And so I have reduced my intake
of sugar from that experience.
00:02:36.62\00:02:40.49
My struggle is with donuts,
00:02:40.52\00:02:42.32
oh, man, donuts processed sugar,
00:02:42.36\00:02:44.59
so I'm trying
to find substitutes
00:02:44.63\00:02:46.29
you know hopefully you can find
00:02:46.33\00:02:47.66
good healthy
substitutes for the bad
00:02:47.70\00:02:49.66
healthy sugars
instead of processed sugars.
00:02:49.70\00:02:51.03
Yeah,
00:02:51.07\00:02:52.40
You know just recently
00:02:52.43\00:02:53.77
we've had some really good pears
00:02:53.80\00:02:55.14
at our house
00:02:55.17\00:02:56.50
and they're pretty sweet,
pretty tasty, pretty good.
00:02:56.54\00:02:58.37
Yeah, I guess
you could cut it up
00:02:58.41\00:02:59.74
like a donut and
you'd be happy with it huh.
00:02:59.77\00:03:01.14
Yeah, that'll be
great, that'll be great.
00:03:01.18\00:03:03.71
We've had some
questions and I guess, you know,
00:03:03.75\00:03:06.65
if I can't handle
this I'm going to call
00:03:06.68\00:03:08.95
Dr Davis on my cell phone
00:03:08.98\00:03:10.99
and maybe he could
break away from a patient
00:03:11.02\00:03:12.82
and help me out with these here,
00:03:12.85\00:03:14.19
but we will do the best we can
00:03:14.22\00:03:15.92
to answer these
questions about oral pain.
00:03:15.96\00:03:18.33
And we like to thank people
who have visited our website
00:03:18.36\00:03:20.60
to submit these questions
00:03:20.63\00:03:21.96
and our first question is,
"Why is my throat always sore?"
00:03:22.00\00:03:25.90
Dr Markham.
00:03:25.93\00:03:27.27
Well, sore throats I would think
00:03:27.30\00:03:28.90
the most logical thing
is would be an infection.
00:03:28.94\00:03:31.37
We talked about the infections,
the bacterial flexions,
00:03:31.41\00:03:34.71
that can be
treated with antibiotics,
00:03:34.74\00:03:36.85
the viral flexions that we
usually do to with the time
00:03:36.88\00:03:41.12
but other
things that might cause
00:03:41.15\00:03:42.52
a sore throat is sinus drainage.
00:03:42.55\00:03:44.79
Yeah.
00:03:44.82\00:03:46.15
You know post nasal
drip can cause a sore throat
00:03:46.19\00:03:48.02
and unfortunately
I've seen a few people
00:03:48.06\00:03:50.03
that have reflux,
00:03:50.06\00:03:51.39
you know, we talked
about acid bubbling up.
00:03:51.43\00:03:53.70
Acid can bubble up
all the way to the mouth
00:03:53.73\00:03:56.30
and I saw one fellow once,
00:03:56.33\00:03:58.27
he was really sick retching
00:03:58.30\00:03:59.90
and he actually the
bad stuff came up so much
00:03:59.93\00:04:03.20
that it caused damage
to the back of his throat.
00:04:03.24\00:04:05.67
He had a sore throat
for a long period of time.
00:04:05.71\00:04:08.18
So those are some things
that can cause a sore throat,
00:04:08.21\00:04:12.31
if, of course, if
you're dehydrated ok,
00:04:12.35\00:04:14.52
that can sometimes
cause a sore throat.
00:04:14.55\00:04:17.15
But when you have a
sore throat what do you do?
00:04:17.19\00:04:19.32
Ok, well,
00:04:19.35\00:04:20.69
have someone look in the back
to see if it's an infection,
00:04:20.72\00:04:23.16
see if you can know
what the cause of it is.
00:04:23.19\00:04:25.36
And if it doesn't go away
00:04:25.39\00:04:26.73
sometimes it needs an antibiotic
00:04:26.76\00:04:28.16
but usually
something that will make it
00:04:28.20\00:04:29.53
feel better right away
00:04:29.56\00:04:30.90
is gargling warm salt water
that usually helps hydrate it,
00:04:30.93\00:04:35.07
salt so they relieve the pain.
00:04:35.10\00:04:36.81
They also make some lozenges
that will help numb the pain.
00:04:36.84\00:04:40.34
And sometimes that's all
that's needed till the body
00:04:40.38\00:04:42.94
can heal itself.
00:04:42.98\00:04:44.35
Now if acid or post
nasal drip or bad infection.
00:04:44.38\00:04:47.08
You want to treat
the underlying cause
00:04:47.12\00:04:49.12
and that will help the pain
00:04:49.15\00:04:50.49
so that's some of the things
that causes a sore throat.
00:04:50.52\00:04:53.05
Now here's one
thing that I saw one time
00:04:53.09\00:04:55.52
I saw one kid that had a stick
00:04:55.56\00:04:58.26
and he shoved the
stick in his mouth
00:04:58.29\00:04:59.83
and it went back of his
throat and that caused him
00:04:59.86\00:05:02.46
we know kids are putting stuff
in their mouth all the time,
00:05:02.50\00:05:05.23
you'll be surprised.
00:05:05.27\00:05:06.77
Your kids will put
pins in their mouth,
00:05:06.80\00:05:08.64
they'll put toys in their mouth.
00:05:08.67\00:05:10.11
They'll put
things in their mouth
00:05:10.14\00:05:11.47
and if they come to
you and have a sore throat
00:05:11.51\00:05:13.74
you might just want to say,
00:05:13.78\00:05:15.11
"Hey, Haden did
you stick some in mouth
00:05:15.14\00:05:16.75
and shove it in there?"
00:05:16.78\00:05:18.11
And there is some trauma.
Yeah, they do funny things.
00:05:18.15\00:05:19.48
Tinker toys I've seen before.
00:05:19.51\00:05:21.12
So that might be
something you put in the back
00:05:21.15\00:05:23.42
of your mind
especially if you have kids.
00:05:23.45\00:05:24.95
Adults usually we
don't have that problem.
00:05:24.99\00:05:26.52
You know when I was a kid
00:05:26.55\00:05:27.89
if we had a
sore throat or cough,
00:05:27.92\00:05:29.26
my dad always have us drink
00:05:29.29\00:05:30.63
lots of water
and take vitamin C.
00:05:30.66\00:05:31.99
is vitamin C.
helpful for sore throat or...
00:05:32.03\00:05:34.36
It's not going to hurt I mean,
00:05:34.40\00:05:35.86
it's an anti-oxidant
that might help a little bit
00:05:35.90\00:05:38.93
but a lot of people think
00:05:38.97\00:05:40.30
it helps boost
your immune system.
00:05:40.34\00:05:42.50
But anything that will boost
your immune system will help.
00:05:42.54\00:05:45.21
So vitamin D in the sun,
00:05:45.24\00:05:47.48
exercise will
boost your immune system,
00:05:47.51\00:05:49.68
eating the right
foods, anti-oxidants.
00:05:49.71\00:05:51.48
So anything that will make
your immune system stronger
00:05:51.51\00:05:53.95
will help
infections quite a bit.
00:05:53.98\00:05:56.08
Now here's an interesting
we talk about sore throat
00:05:56.12\00:05:58.05
this was not a sore
throat but I knew someone once
00:05:58.09\00:06:00.29
the chewed
toothpicks all the time.
00:06:00.32\00:06:02.26
Always had a
tooth pick in his mouth.
00:06:02.29\00:06:04.29
When he had that
toothpick one time
00:06:04.33\00:06:05.83
and he got in a bad position
00:06:05.86\00:06:07.30
and it can cause
quite a bit of oral pain.
00:06:07.33\00:06:09.36
I guess a little bit of that.
00:06:09.40\00:06:10.73
So if you're a toothpick chewer.
00:06:10.77\00:06:12.60
Be careful.
00:06:12.63\00:06:13.97
Because anything
you stick in your mouth
00:06:14.00\00:06:15.47
could cause some
type of oral pain
00:06:15.50\00:06:17.11
and especially if
it has sharp ends,
00:06:17.14\00:06:18.67
so I try not to
stick anything in the mouth
00:06:18.71\00:06:20.84
unless it's heading
south to the stomach.
00:06:20.88\00:06:23.28
Alright that
sounds like great advice.
00:06:23.31\00:06:24.65
Wait, wait here's another one.
00:06:24.68\00:06:26.01
Alright. A pearl, a pearl.
00:06:26.05\00:06:27.52
If people chew gum,
00:06:27.55\00:06:29.08
if they chew gum sometimes
you're not paying attention
00:06:29.12\00:06:31.75
and you chew your tongue,
00:06:31.79\00:06:33.15
another cause of oral pain.
00:06:33.19\00:06:35.06
Have you ever
bitten your tongue?
00:06:35.09\00:06:36.42
Yeah, and it's the
one of the worst things
00:06:36.46\00:06:37.79
like I don't have too
much pain in my body generally
00:06:37.83\00:06:39.33
but if I bite
the side of my cheek
00:06:39.36\00:06:40.70
or if I bite my tongue.
00:06:40.73\00:06:42.06
That seems to be
00:06:42.10\00:06:43.43
one of those most
painful things I get.
00:06:43.47\00:06:44.80
Yeah, tongues are
very vascular too.
00:06:44.83\00:06:46.57
They heal up and I had a person
that bit their tongue so bad
00:06:46.60\00:06:49.60
once they had to have
a stitch in their tongue.
00:06:49.64\00:06:50.97
Oh, my...
00:06:51.01\00:06:52.34
That's when it gets really bad.
00:06:52.37\00:06:53.71
In tongues you
have to be careful
00:06:53.74\00:06:55.08
with because
tongues believe it or not
00:06:55.11\00:06:56.44
are dirty organs
00:06:56.48\00:06:57.81
because there's so much bacteria
00:06:57.85\00:06:59.18
in the mouth
00:06:59.21\00:07:00.55
and they can get
infected pretty easy.
00:07:00.58\00:07:01.92
So those are some
preventive medicines
00:07:01.95\00:07:03.28
that you can do
and tongues bleed a lot
00:07:03.32\00:07:06.15
if you're if you
have a bite your tongue
00:07:06.19\00:07:08.36
or get something
wrong with your tongue
00:07:08.39\00:07:09.72
and is a cause oral pain.
00:07:09.76\00:07:11.09
It's going to bleed quite a bit.
00:07:11.13\00:07:12.56
Yeah, well let's take a
look at another question here.
00:07:12.59\00:07:14.53
Someone writes in,
00:07:14.56\00:07:15.90
"What is the
function of your tonsils."
00:07:15.93\00:07:17.63
Well, no one really knows that,
00:07:17.67\00:07:19.27
we can, I actually
had my tonsils removed
00:07:19.30\00:07:21.37
but some people think
it has something to do
00:07:21.40\00:07:23.44
with detoxifying, you know,
00:07:23.47\00:07:24.94
sort of an organ
that helps with infections
00:07:24.97\00:07:27.38
but you can live without them.
00:07:27.41\00:07:28.74
So I'm not really
sure what the tonsils do
00:07:28.78\00:07:32.25
but they do seem to be a place
00:07:32.28\00:07:33.72
where infections tend to deposit
00:07:33.75\00:07:35.82
and some people
thought it was immune tissue
00:07:35.85\00:07:37.75
and had something to do
with your immune system.
00:07:37.79\00:07:40.19
But if you're having
lots of sore throats,
00:07:40.22\00:07:42.19
lots of oral pain from that,
00:07:42.22\00:07:43.76
sometimes the
tonsils pick up bacteria
00:07:43.79\00:07:46.46
and infections
more than other parts.
00:07:46.49\00:07:48.56
So you have a tonsillectomy,
00:07:48.60\00:07:50.77
that's where they
removed the tonsils.
00:07:50.80\00:07:52.33
I had mine removed
00:07:52.37\00:07:53.70
when I was five or six because,
00:07:53.74\00:07:55.07
I kept getting
frequent strep throats.
00:07:55.10\00:07:57.11
Ok.
00:07:57.14\00:07:58.47
So I had mine
removed when I was young
00:07:58.51\00:07:59.84
and I had it done in
Nashville, Tennessee.
00:07:59.87\00:08:01.71
My tonsils were out
and I could remember
00:08:01.74\00:08:03.14
it was great because afterwards.
00:08:03.18\00:08:04.51
Now they weren't...
00:08:04.55\00:08:05.88
this was years ago,
00:08:05.91\00:08:07.25
Nick and afterwards guess
00:08:07.28\00:08:08.62
what they gave you after you had
00:08:08.65\00:08:09.98
your tonsils removed.
00:08:10.02\00:08:11.35
Was that ice cream? Yes.
00:08:11.39\00:08:12.72
Probably not the
best in processed sugar
00:08:12.75\00:08:14.09
but they didn't
know everything back
00:08:14.12\00:08:15.46
then you know we
probably should give me
00:08:15.49\00:08:17.13
some sorbet or something.
00:08:17.16\00:08:18.49
Although, it
probably helped you be happy,
00:08:18.53\00:08:20.53
which probably
was a good thing.'
00:08:20.56\00:08:21.90
Yeah, they got me over the
hump of having my tonsils out
00:08:21.93\00:08:25.30
but if you haven't done
tonsils out at a younger age,
00:08:25.33\00:08:27.60
it's a little bit easier
00:08:27.64\00:08:28.97
than waiting till
you're older to have em out.
00:08:29.00\00:08:30.54
Now, educate us a little
bit where is the tonsils?
00:08:30.57\00:08:32.87
Is it in the back
of the throat or what?
00:08:32.91\00:08:34.84
It's usually to the sides
00:08:34.88\00:08:36.21
and if you open your
mouth and look to your sides
00:08:36.24\00:08:38.61
if you still have them
you can usually see them
00:08:38.65\00:08:40.65
and I don't want to do it on air
00:08:40.68\00:08:42.02
but this is one go to Wikipedia.
00:08:42.05\00:08:45.15
Wikipedia. Yeah,
check it out on that.
00:08:45.19\00:08:46.52
And look at out
where your tonsils
00:08:46.55\00:08:47.89
are but it's over here to the...
00:08:47.92\00:08:49.26
Kind of back of the side...
00:08:49.29\00:08:50.63
Yeah, back on the
side, you can see em,
00:08:50.66\00:08:51.99
if you still have them.
00:08:52.03\00:08:53.36
And, but the main
thing is if it causes,
00:08:53.40\00:08:54.73
if you have lots of
infections in your throat
00:08:54.76\00:08:56.36
that might be
00:08:56.40\00:08:57.73
something you might
want to have removed.
00:08:57.77\00:08:59.77
Alright,
00:08:59.80\00:09:01.14
our next viewer
writes in and asks,
00:09:01.17\00:09:02.50
"What could be
causing lip pain?"
00:09:02.54\00:09:04.54
Pain in your lips.
00:09:04.57\00:09:06.64
Wow, that's a good question.
00:09:06.68\00:09:08.54
Well, I'd have to
talk to that person
00:09:08.58\00:09:10.28
because dry lips I guess could.
00:09:10.31\00:09:11.65
Yeah.
00:09:11.68\00:09:13.01
Sores could
cause pain in the lips,
00:09:13.05\00:09:14.85
using your lips too much ok,
00:09:14.88\00:09:17.52
if you're a big,
00:09:17.55\00:09:18.89
big time kisser I guess
Nick if you kept kissing
00:09:18.92\00:09:21.29
persons over and
over I guess that could
00:09:21.32\00:09:22.82
you know wear your lips out
00:09:22.86\00:09:24.19
but that is a good question
00:09:24.23\00:09:25.56
that I'm going to
have to defer to a dentist,
00:09:25.59\00:09:27.60
but sores I would
guess could cause it.
00:09:27.63\00:09:30.87
You know those would be some
of the more common things...
00:09:30.90\00:09:32.73
So let's say...
00:09:32.77\00:09:34.10
...Lip pain other
than sores and cankers
00:09:34.14\00:09:35.57
and things like that,
00:09:35.60\00:09:36.94
that they're
usually viral infections
00:09:36.97\00:09:38.44
and immune
system like reactions.
00:09:38.47\00:09:40.71
Sometimes of course,
00:09:40.74\00:09:42.08
if the lips gets too dry
00:09:42.11\00:09:43.45
they're more prone to cracking
00:09:43.48\00:09:44.95
and that can hurt as well
so water would help the lips.
00:09:44.98\00:09:48.32
So I'm guessing
this person probably
00:09:48.35\00:09:49.68
only had severely chapped lips
00:09:49.72\00:09:51.15
or some kind of sore
00:09:51.19\00:09:52.52
and you said a sore
is a viral infection?
00:09:52.55\00:09:54.19
Usually the viral,
00:09:54.22\00:09:55.56
usually viral
infections trigger it
00:09:55.59\00:09:56.99
and here's another thing
00:09:57.03\00:09:58.36
when we're talking
about oral and mouth health.
00:09:58.39\00:10:00.33
Never put your mouth,
00:10:00.36\00:10:01.70
we talked about
putting sharp things
00:10:01.73\00:10:03.06
in your mouth.
00:10:03.10\00:10:04.43
That's a no, no.
00:10:04.47\00:10:05.80
Another thing is
putting your mouth
00:10:05.83\00:10:07.17
on very cold things,
00:10:07.20\00:10:08.54
don't do that you know
00:10:08.57\00:10:09.90
if you hear this occasionally...
00:10:09.94\00:10:11.27
Your stories with kids...
00:10:11.31\00:10:13.74
Even adults, you
know the teenagers.
00:10:13.78\00:10:15.28
I dare you to stick your
tongue on this cold, ice cube.
00:10:15.31\00:10:18.58
I dare you to kiss
this cold ice cube...
00:10:18.61\00:10:20.55
And end up with some trauma.
00:10:20.58\00:10:21.92
That's not good and
that's a traumatic thing...
00:10:21.95\00:10:23.72
Right.
00:10:23.75\00:10:25.09
I tell this
because it does happen.
00:10:25.12\00:10:26.45
I don't think
these things happen
00:10:26.49\00:10:27.82
but occasionally
these things happen
00:10:27.86\00:10:29.19
and this is a way
to lower your risk
00:10:29.22\00:10:30.56
and anything, you
know, that's a good point.
00:10:30.59\00:10:32.09
Anything that we put in our,
00:10:32.13\00:10:33.86
our mouth that's too hot or
too cold could cause damage.
00:10:33.90\00:10:37.53
That's right.
00:10:37.57\00:10:38.90
Think about it,
you eat some hot foods
00:10:38.93\00:10:40.77
and it can cause
oral pain as well.
00:10:40.80\00:10:42.84
Yeah, you know with young
kids it's something we're always
00:10:42.87\00:10:45.07
trying to be aware of make sure
00:10:45.11\00:10:46.44
we don't give something
that's too hot because,
00:10:46.47\00:10:48.31
inevitably I'm sure
everybody does at once
00:10:48.34\00:10:49.81
and you realize oh, oh,
00:10:49.84\00:10:51.18
that's too hot
for him and it end up
00:10:51.21\00:10:52.78
in a bad time.
00:10:52.81\00:10:54.15
A lot of adults drink hot drinks
00:10:54.18\00:10:55.68
and that causes acute damage
00:10:55.72\00:10:57.49
and you don't
want to burn yourself
00:10:57.52\00:10:58.85
because that can
cause oral pain so that's,
00:10:58.89\00:11:00.49
that could cause lip
pain if it got in your lip.
00:11:00.52\00:11:02.62
But I don't see
a lot of lip pain
00:11:02.66\00:11:03.99
in my practice.
00:11:04.03\00:11:05.83
That's good. I'm
glad people are...
00:11:05.86\00:11:07.20
Usually not life threatening.
00:11:07.23\00:11:09.23
So who would you
see it if you had,
00:11:09.26\00:11:10.60
if had lip pain,
00:11:10.63\00:11:11.97
you see a dermatologist
maybe your dentist.
00:11:12.00\00:11:13.44
I'd see my dentist first,
00:11:13.47\00:11:14.80
because he
probably sees more lip pains
00:11:14.84\00:11:16.17
than other people,
00:11:16.20\00:11:17.54
some people I guess
bite their lips, you know.
00:11:17.57\00:11:18.91
Yeah, right.
00:11:18.94\00:11:20.28
You know, if they're
nervous type of person.
00:11:20.31\00:11:22.51
Let's move on to
another question,
00:11:22.54\00:11:25.28
"What is the best
tooth brush to use."
00:11:25.31\00:11:26.65
Ok.
00:11:26.68\00:11:28.02
The best tooth brush to use
00:11:28.05\00:11:29.38
is anything that you
actually use on a regular basis.
00:11:29.42\00:11:31.29
The one that you'll use right?
00:11:31.32\00:11:32.65
But I actually asked Dr
Davis that question some others
00:11:32.69\00:11:34.52
and they say the one
that's the best is the one
00:11:34.56\00:11:37.69
you know not the manual one
00:11:37.73\00:11:39.06
but they sort of the ones
that spring put the water,
00:11:39.09\00:11:42.06
it's more like a water pick one.
00:11:42.10\00:11:43.43
Ok. Or the electric ones.
00:11:43.47\00:11:44.80
And the electric ones?
00:11:44.83\00:11:46.17
Electric ones and the ones
00:11:46.20\00:11:47.54
that have water
come out the same time,
00:11:47.57\00:11:48.90
those are very good.
00:11:48.94\00:11:50.27
I don't know why I
never I got the habit of using
00:11:50.31\00:11:51.64
just a regular one myself,
00:11:51.67\00:11:53.01
but some people
that use the electric one
00:11:53.04\00:11:55.01
say that's great,
00:11:55.04\00:11:56.38
but I think the key is
just to use the toothbrush,
00:11:56.41\00:11:59.31
floss on a regular basis
00:11:59.35\00:12:01.25
that's probably the best thing
00:12:01.28\00:12:02.62
that we can do not
only for oral health
00:12:02.65\00:12:04.42
but it can
prevent how halitosis,
00:12:04.45\00:12:06.35
keeping the mouth clean can
get rid of sores in the mouth,
00:12:06.39\00:12:09.89
drinking lots of
water all those things
00:12:09.92\00:12:11.83
are just great for the mouth
00:12:11.86\00:12:13.73
and I hope no one out
there has mouth oral pain.
00:12:13.76\00:12:16.73
Well, Dr Markham thank
you for sharing your thoughts
00:12:16.77\00:12:19.13
and thank you for
watching this program.
00:12:19.17\00:12:20.70
If you're having
serious mouth pain,
00:12:20.74\00:12:22.84
please go see your dentist.
00:12:22.87\00:12:24.21
And then if you
have other questions,
00:12:24.24\00:12:25.87
go to our website at
Hearwiseministries.org.
00:12:25.91\00:12:28.14
And we'll get you the
best information we can.
00:12:28.18\00:12:30.25
Dr Markham will
close the program
00:12:30.28\00:12:31.61
with prayer in just a moment.
00:12:31.65\00:12:32.98
So stay with us.
00:12:33.01\00:12:34.35
I hope no one in
our viewing audience
00:12:43.86\00:12:45.99
is having mouth or oral pain.
00:12:46.03\00:12:48.76
It's not fun to
have but remember
00:12:48.80\00:12:50.57
if you have pain in
your mouth or anywhere,
00:12:50.60\00:12:53.37
that's your signal
that something's wrong
00:12:53.40\00:12:55.50
so pay
attention to that symptom.
00:12:55.54\00:12:58.01
Pain is a way that we learn
that something's not going well
00:12:58.04\00:13:01.11
with our body and
sometimes just common sense
00:13:01.14\00:13:04.11
is what we need to help prevent
00:13:04.15\00:13:06.15
episodes of pain.
00:13:06.18\00:13:07.52
Let's pray together.
00:13:07.55\00:13:09.48
Father in heaven,
00:13:09.52\00:13:10.85
there are some out
there that are having pain.
00:13:10.89\00:13:13.09
We want you to be with them.
00:13:13.12\00:13:14.46
There's both the physical pain
00:13:14.49\00:13:15.89
and also the
mental pains of life
00:13:15.92\00:13:17.89
and we know that
you're the ultimate physician
00:13:17.93\00:13:20.10
who wants to be a
part of every aspect.
00:13:20.13\00:13:22.46
Thank you for
being with us today,
00:13:22.50\00:13:24.77
and guiding us in
knowledge and truth.
00:13:24.80\00:13:27.20
This is our prayer.
00:13:27.24\00:13:28.77
Amen.
00:13:28.80\00:13:31.21
Well, if you
