Good Dental Hygiene Practises for Healthy Smiles
What role does dental hygiene play in maintaining a healthy smile?
Dental hygiene is an essential part of maintaining a beautiful, healthy smile – but it also benefits the entire body’s health and well-being. Aside from properly brushing your teeth and regularly using dental floss, it is also important to go for regular dental check-ups where the hygienist can examine the condition of your dental health.
Our hygienist here at Hertfordshire will carefully examine your teeth, mouth, and gums to check for signs of dental problems so any issues can be addressed in the soonest possible time – before they can develop into more serious concerns. Your hygiene appointment also includes a comprehensive professional dental cleaning to remove plaque deposits as well as stains to maintain your beautiful smile. Advise on the proper diet for good dental health may also be given by the hygienist, who can also give you tips on how to prevent bad breath.
Freshen, Brighten and Protect Your Teeth and Gums with Airflow Treatment.
Airflow therapy is a hygiene treatment that removes teeth stains, plaque and discolouration using a combination of water, compressed air and fine powder particles.
Air-flow Hygiene Treatments
Good dental hygiene practises can bring you the following benefits
- Tooth decay prevention – Proper oral hygiene involves a thorough cleaning of the teeth and the whole mouth area. This can help prevent bacterial growth that can cause plaque deposits to form on the tooth’s surface, so it will be more difficult for tooth decay to develop. As a result, it will also be easier to prevent tooth loss in the long run.
- Gum disease prevention – Plaque deposits that form along the gum line can cause the gum tissue to slowly break down. If this happens, the gums can be painfully swollen and may even form pockets around the teeth, which may cause the teeth to loosen. Good dental health can keep the gums healthy so they can continue to support the teeth.
- Fresh breath – Bacterial growth that can cause tooth decay can also lead to bad breath. Regular hygiene treatments can help you maintain fresh breath so you will not need to worry about embarrassing bad breath problems.
- Beautiful smile – An attractive smile can easily be achieved and maintained with good personal oral health practises and regular visits to the dental hygienist.
