Dental

The world of dental health is getting a whole lot handier — in the last 10 years many oral care products that once required a prescription have become available over-the-counter.
Achieving optimal oral, dental, and craniofacial health requires a commitment to self-care and preventive behaviors as well as the receipt of appropriate professional care

When most people think of brushing and flossing, they think about keeping a healthy smile, preventing dental carries and gum disease, and keeping breath fresh and minty. Proper oral hygiene is about more than clean teeth and fresh breath; it is one of the best ways to help maintain good overall health.

Your teeth are the first step in the digestive process – you use them to chew your food! Practicing good oral hygiene habits helps maintain lasting durability and function of your teeth. Poor habits can lead to cavities, tooth loss, and infected or inflamed gums, all of which hamper your ability to eat health foods. Why? Because when your teeth give you pain, you’re less likely to eat fresh, vitamin rich foods which leads to better long-term health.
