Hygiene Services
Good dental hygiene is important not only for preventing tooth decay and gum disease, but also for maintaining strong overall health and well-being. Research has now confirmed that the health of our mouth is very important to our overall health. Reducing bacteria and ensuring that your teeth and gums are healthy will reduce the change of heart disease, joint issues, risks during pregnancy, and low birth weights. Other studies have shown that the body has energy lines and infection in your mouth can cause other symptoms and diseases in your body. There is still a lot of unknown in the dental community about what all gum or tooth infection can cause and therefore it is even more important that we do everything we can to be healthy.
When it comes to your mouth, all you need to do is brush and floss well at night. Make it fun. Put on some music, dance, floss, and brush your teeth at night. This will change your mind about flossing and brushing and you will actually enjoy this time by yourself or make it a family event. Changing your attitude about flossing will allow you to make this habit a permanent one. Flossing is very important even if other people, even famous people try to tell you otherwise. It’s like washing your car but you know the difference when you detailed your car. There is no way a brush can reach in between your teeth and think about it, where does food get stuck? Why does your floss smell yucky after flossing? Because the bacteria and food get stuck right there not on the surface of the tooth.
The struggle is real, 70% of US population have gum disease and do not know it. Gum disease is a chronic and unfortunate SILENT disease. Patients often do not even realize that they have gum disease since 40% of Americans do not visit the dentist or even if they have been diagnosed with it, do not take it seriously. However, it’s the number ONE cause of tooth loss when left untreated.
