To brush is to be healthy!
A healthy mouth for a confident smile
A pril is Oral Health Month, and it’s the perfect occasion to emphasize the importance of taking care of your mouth and teeth. Daily brushing and flossing, as well as a healthy diet, are the foundations of good oral health. Regular visits to the dentist also help prevent or detect problems so you can have them treated before they become serious. Poor oral health doesn’t just cause pain and discomfort when you eat. Missing teeth or oral infections can also affect the way you speak, smile and interact with others. Damaged teeth or gums affect a person’s quality of life in many ways. And that’s beside the fact that oral health problems can indicate the presence of more serious diseases, including oral cancer. This type of cancer is devastating, as it is rarely diagnosed in the early stages. In addition, oral diseases are linked with other health problems such as diabetes, stroke and respiratory diseases among the elderly. Consequently, it’s important to take care of your oral health and not ignore symptoms that could indicate a problem. Bleeding gums, a sore or numb mouth, teeth that are sensitive to heat or cold and chronic bad breath: any or all of these symptoms are good reasons to make an appointment with your dentist. In short, taking care of your mouth doesn’t just mean treating yourself to a beautiful smile; it also means looking after your overall health and well-being.
