Why is good dental hygiene important?

Not only is good dental hygiene important to prevent tooth loss, keep your gums healthy and ensure that your smile is kept white and bright, but good dental hygiene is also necessary for your overall health.
 

Many diseases’ first symptoms show in the mouth, and if you practice good dental hygiene, you’ll be able to notice a change in your teeth and gums right away. Additionally, periodontal disease increases your body’s burden of inflammation, increasing the risk of heart disease.

​

Dental Hygienists are specially trained to look after gums specifically. Thorough teeth cleaning plays a major role in maintaining healthy gums and teeth.
