How Are Your Resolutions Going?
We’re already one month into the new year! How are your resolutions coming along? Whether it’s improving your overall health, looking your best, or feeling more confident, one often-overlooked resolution can make a huge difference: your oral hygiene.
Did you know that oral hygiene is directly linked to your health? Imagine the advantages of having healthy teeth, as opposed to the worrisome disadvantages of poor oral hygiene.
Poor oral hygiene and gum inflammation can lead to serious health issues such as, among others, Alzheimer’s disease, cardioviscular problems or diabetes.
What can you do to keep your oral health on track, other than your regular dental check-ups?
Here’s some simple, impactful tips:
• Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste.
• Floss regularly to prevent gum disease.
• Drink water and avoid sugary snacks.
This year’s resolution? Healthy teeth, healthy life!
If it’s been a while since your last visit, we recommend you to contact your dentist or dental hygienist. If you’ve got any questions, we’re always happy to help.
