Dental hygieneThe mouth is used daily, several times a day, for eating, speaking, smiling, kissing, etc.; it is also the centre of the main interactions with others. It is therefore important and in everyone’s interest that you take care of it, not only to avoid unpleasant odours for others, but also and above all to avoid developing dental and periodontal diseases. Dental hygiene includes all the things you can do on a daily basis to keep your mouth clean and healthy and to reduce the risk of developing oral diseases. It’s not something that can be left to your dentist and dental hygienist to do during routine cleanings! Every little thing you do counts. Below you will find details on these small steps and tools that can help you maintain good oral hygiene. Remember that no matter how hard you try at home to keep your mouth clean, you still need to continue your regular visits to your dentist for professional cleaning once or twice a year or more frequently depending on your situation. During these visits, your oral health professionals may also be able to detect any diseases affecting your mouth that, if not discovered early, could lead to more extensive, costly and invasive treatments. |

Brushing teethThe first thing you should do when discussing dental hygiene is to brush your teeth. This simple act should be done at least twice a day. The most important brushing of the day should be done before going to bed to remove as much food residue as possible from your mouth, as well as the accumulation of plaque on your teeth to delay the appearance of tartar, which can be harmful to your gums. It’s one of the things we learn at a young age, but do you really know what good tooth brushing is? |
