Each tooth is worth more than a diamond. It holds a benefits package that enables one to express feelings, eat, drink and speak clearly. Each tooth plays its role differently in chewing food and making it easy to digest.
We should find time to take care of our oral health regularly. This will be a great investment in the future to maintain healthy strong teeth for enjoying our favorite food.
The performance of healthy teeth goes far beyond a celebrity smile. Here are some benefits of better oral health:
A well-balanced diet with calcium- and phosphorus-rich foods promotes healthy teeth and gums for optimum oral health.
Proper dental care should begin when the first tooth erupts from the gumline. There are no age restrictions in starting to care for our teeth. Parents should teach their children about the importance of regular oral practice from an early stage.
Here are a few tips to keep your teeth strong and healthy:
Teeth are the first wall of defense in the protection against any respiratory infections that enter into the mouth. Our oral health is a strong pillar for our overall well-being. Hence, it is essential to have a regular dental checkup every six months. Good oral hygiene practices in line with regular dental checkups keep our teeth strong and healthy.
During a dental checkup, the dentist examines oral health looking for trouble areas if any. The dentist may remove the plaque which may turn into tooth decay and clean your teeth. The regular dental visit indicates the detection of oral cancers and periodontal disease. If you skip a regular dental visit over a silly excuse, you are inviting dental issues.
