Why Is Oral Health Important?

Maintaining good oral health is an investment that can pay off for a lifetime. Healthy teeth and gums ensure that your bite functions properly, that your mouth is free from harmful conditions like gum diseases, and that your smile is as beautiful as possible, giving you the confidence to live life to the fullest. Poor oral health has even been linked to serious medical conditions like heart disease - so strong oral health can impact you positively in ways you may never have guessed. Without proper oral health, dental decay and oral diseases can progress to the point of threatening the integrity of your teeth, permanently damaging your smile.

How to Keep Your Mouth Healthy

Now you know why oral health is important - but how do you keep it up? There are several important components to strong oral health, but some of the most important are in your at-home oral hygiene regimen. Brushing twice a day and flossing daily is absolutely critical to the health of your mouth. Brushing and flossing helps to remove food particles, bacteria, and plaque from the teeth, preventing decay. It also stimulates blood flow to the gums, which helps clear away bacteria and prevent infection and gingivitis. In addition to brushing and flossing, maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding tobacco can all help to keep your mouth in good shape.

Outside of at-home care, there are a number of important ways that your regular visits to the dentist keep your teeth in optimal condition. Dental exams can help to spot oral health problems before they become serious, and regular professional teeth cleanings remove plaque and prevent it from causing serious damage to the teeth. Preventive dental services are a critical part of caring for your mouth and keeping your smile healthy for years to come.
