Oral Health – How To Get Your Smile In A Good Shape ?
Oral Health Importance
In today’s world, most of the people don’t go to the dentist. And childrens have never seen a dentist in may years, which can lead to many health issues. Lack of regular Oral Health care has serious consequences, the report says, including increased risk of respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, as well as inappropriate use of hospital emergency departments for preventable dental diseases.
Why is my teeth so important ?
Your teeth vary in shape and size depending on where they are in your mouth. Teeth help us to chew and digest food. They help us to talk, and to pronounce different sounds clearly. Finally, teeth help to give our face its shape. A healthy smile can be a great asset; and because this is so important, it makes sense to give your teeth the best care possible.
How can Oral Health go wrong ?
Tooth decay can be painful and lead to fillings, crowns or inlays. If tooth decay is not treated, the nerve of the tooth can become infected and die, causing an abscess. This may then need root canal treatment or even for the tooth to be removed. Gum disease is common and, if left untreated, may lead to bone loss around the teeth. Gum disease is preventable. It can be treated and kept under control with regular cleaning sessions and check-ups, preventing further problems.
How do I take care of my teeth and gums ?
A simple routine can help prevent most dental problems:
- brushing your teeth last thing at night and at least one other time during the day, with a fluoride toothpaste.
- cleaning between the teeth with ‘interdental’ brushes or floss at least once a day.
- good eating habits – having sugary foods and drinks less often.
- regular dental check-ups.
Although most people brush regularly, many don’t clean between their teeth and some people don’t have regular dental check-ups.
Reasons For Getting an Oral Treatment
Prevent Oral Cancer
When you have your dental cleaning, your dentist is also screening you for oral cancer, which is highly curable if diagnosed early.
Prevent Gum Disease
Gum disease is an infection in the gum tissues and bone that keep your teeth in place and is one of the leading causes of adult tooth loss. If diagnosed early, it can be treated and reversed. If treatment is not received, a more serious and advanced stage of gum disease may follow. Regular dental cleanings and check ups, flossing daily and brushing twice a day are key factors in preventing gum disease.
Maintain Overall Good Physical Health
Studies have shown linked heart attacks and strokes to gum disease, resulting from poor oral hygiene. A dental cleaning every six months helps to keep your teeth and gums healthy and could possibly reduce your risk of heart disease and strokes.
To Keep your Teeth
Regular dental check-ups and cleanings, brushing and flossing are vital to keeping as many teeth as you can. Keeping your teeth means better chewing function and ultimately, better health.
