Emphasising the Importance of Maintaining Good Oral Hygiene Habits
Neglecting oral hygiene can cause a range of dental issues such as cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Over time, these untreated problems can escalate and progress to affect the surrounding teeth, soft tissue, and bone, potentially leading to severe systemic diseases. Some of the most common diseases include:
- Dental caries (tooth decay)
- Periodontal disease (infection and inflammation of the gum tissues)
- Malocclusion (poor biting of the teeth due to alignment problems)
- Oro-dental trauma (pain from injuries to the teeth and surrounding areas)
- Mouth cancer
Echoing the 2024 World Oral Health Day’s slogan, “A Happy Mouth is a Happy Body”, Atria-City Dental Group wishes to emphasise the impact of good oral/dental health on an individual’s overall well-being and quality of life. Among the key benefits of maintaining good oral hygiene habits that extend beyond just healthy teeth and gums are:
- Prevents Tooth Decay and Gum Diseases: Regular brushing and flossing can prevent cavities, gingivitis, and periodontitis, safeguarding your oral health and overall well-being.
- Helps Maintain Strong Teeth: Proper dental care ensures your teeth stay strong and healthy, allowing you to enjoy a full and balanced diet without discomfort or limitations.
- Prevents Bad Breath: Regular cleaning and check-ups can keep halitosis at bay, promoting fresh breath and boosting confidence in social interactions.
