The maintenance of good dental health is one of the most important aspects of your general well-being.
Good Dental Hygiene practices not only make your teeth and gums feel fresh and vibrant, but also provide the basic foundation for lifelong Health. It all starts with your teeth. It has been scientifically proven that inadequate oral health can have a significant impact on your general well-being. Increased risk of stroke, Heart Disease, Cardiovascular Disease and Respiratory Disease,are all more likely to occur if the patient also suffers from poor dental health. Preventive Dentistry enables you to manage and maintain your teeth and gums, keeping them healthy for life.
At Divine Smiles we recommend the following steps toward healthy teeth and gums;
- Brush twice daily
- Use a soft toothbrush with rounded bristles
- Replace your toothbrush every three to four months
- Use toothpaste with added fluoride
- Floss at least once daily
- Visit us every six months for a thorough examination and clean
Routine Preventive Dentistry requires the lifelong commitment of patients and dental staff. Through regularly scheduled appointments, expensive and time consuming procedures can be avoided. Preventive Dentistry includes Periodic Examinations, Hygiene Therapy (cleanings), Sealants and Fluoride Treatment.
Remember it is never too early or too late in life to begin practicing good dental hygiene techniques.
