2.  Oral Health And Overall Health: Why A Healthy Mouth Is
Good For Your Body. Taking good care of your mouth, teeth
and gums is a worthy goal in and of itself.
Good oral and dental hygiene can help prevent bad breath,
tooth decay and gum disease—and can help you keep your
teeth as you get older.

3. Why is dental care so important?
 Regular dental visits are important because they
help to keep your teeth and gums healthy. During
the check-up, your dental professional will check
your overall oral health for any trouble areas.
During the cleaning, your dental professional will
remove any plaque and tartar buildup and may
polish your teeth.

4. WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE GOOD ORAL HYGIENE?
 Good oral hygiene helps to
prevent dental problems - mainly plaque and tartar
(calculus) which are the main causes of gum
disease and caries (tooth decay).Good oral
hygiene may also help to prevent or
delay dental erosion. Dental plaque is a soft
whitish deposit that forms on the surface of teeth.

5. HOW DOES DENTAL HYGIENE AFFECT YOUR HEALTH?
 Normally the body's natural defenses and
good oral health care, such as daily brushing and
flossing, can keep these bacteria under control.
However, without proper oral hygiene, bacteria can
reach levels that might lead to oral infections, such
as tooth decay and gum disease.

6. WHAT IS YOUR OVERALL HEALTH?
 The condition of your mouth is closely tied to
your overall health. Find out how oralhealth is
