Oral Hygiene

About Oral Hygiene 

One of the most important aspects of maintaining your dental health is oral hygiene. Cleaning and brushing regularly can help prevent cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease from developing. Proper oral hygiene at home, combined with regular checkups and cleanings with your dentist at least once or twice annually can lower your risk of serious dental issues later on.

Oral health is related to your overall health. Good oral hygiene not only helps promote a healthy mouth, but it helps keep bacteria under control, preventing it from traveling to other areas. There is a strong correlation between poor dental health and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other chronic conditions, so the importance of good hygiene can not be understated.
