The importance of good oral hygiene

Taking good care of your teeth and gums will help prevent tooth loss and keep the rest of your body healthy. Poor oral health has been linked to diabetes and heart disease.

When you clean the surface of your teeth, especially the hard-to-reach interdental areas, you remove harmful plaque. Did you know that plaque is a buildup of bacteria that constantly forms on your teeth?

Even while you sleep, plaque grows and puts your mouth at risk:
- Cavities;
- Gum disease;
- Bad breath.
