Preventative Dentistry
Preventative Dentistry is the cornerstone of a healthy mouth because almost all dental issues are preventable.
Your mouth is the gateway to your body. There is a strong link between your oral health and overall health. In short, if your mouth isn’t healthy, neither is your body.
The buildup of plaque on your teeth can lead to inflammation. If this inflammation becomes severe, it can travel through the body and cause systemic inflammation, leading to a wide array of health conditions.
A healthy mouth begins at home, as a general rule:
- Brush twice a day for two minutes
- Use a fluoride mouth rinse
- Floss daily
- Visit the dentist
