Healthy teeth and gums
Healthy teeth and gums
Keeping your mouth healthy starts with the basics. Brushing twice a day and flossing daily are a must to maintain a healthy smile.
Lifestyle factors also contribute to healthy teeth and gums.
Eating a varied diet with fruit and vegetables is great for whole mouth health. In contrast, a diet high in refined sugars actually helps bacteria grow and creates acids that can weaken tooth enamel. This is especially true for soft drinks, so where possible, opt for water.
Regular dentist visits ensure that your daily dental routine gets a helping hand, particularly in those hard to reach places.
Your dentist can see things that no amount of time in mirror can reveal.
It is also a great opportunity to get a professional opinion and treat any issues before they get serious (or painful).
Visiting the dentist twice a year can help you avoid unexpected dental issues that could end up being costly and painful down the track.
Having a routine dental check-up comes with many benefits. It is a combined approach to preventing tooth decay, cavities and gum issues.
Not only does a regular teeth cleaning from your dentist feel great, it helps you maintain good oral health.
We all know that good habits are just as hard to break. That’s why establishing good oral health for your little ones, is just as important as looking after your own teeth.
By the time your child is two, it is recommended that you make an appointment for their first dentist visit. Your dentist will perform a visual examination of your child’s teeth, as well as address any concerns or identify any possible future issues.
