ORAL HEALTH BASICS: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW? Oral hygiene refers to the daily care we need to provide to keep our mouths (not just our teeth) healthy. Good oral and dental hygiene can help prevent bad breath, tooth decay and gum disease. But did you know that poor oral heath can also significantly affect your overall health?

An unhealthy mouth, especially if you have gum disease, can increase your risk of serious health problems. Scientists have found links between periodontal disease and health problems, including: • • •

HEART DISEASE & STROKE DIABETES DEMENTIA

• •

RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS PREMATURE BIRTH

HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU HAVE YOUR TEETH PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED? The short answer is every six months. However, peole are different and their risk of developing tooth and gum disease also differs. Plaque is the soft, waxy substance produced by the mouth bacteria, which builds up on the teeth the minute we put our brush down. Plaque can be removed by brushing and flossing, but despite our best efforts, some plaque will remain - especially in those harder to reach areas of our mouths. This leftover plaque eventually becomes hard calculus (tarter), which can’t be removed with brushing and flossing. This calculus allows the bacteria to stick to the tooth surface, usually along the gum line and increases the risk of gum disease.

5 HABITS TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH (AND BODY) AS HEALTHY AS POSSIBLE: Gently brush your teeth twice a day. Once after breakfast and again just before you go to bed.

Floss at least once a day. The floss should slide up and down the tooth surface and not be pulled across the gums in a sawing motion, which will damage our gums.

Mouthwashes don’t replace what floss can do, but they are certainly better than nothing, especially if you do not floss regurlarly (or at all!).

Don’t smoke.

Make a regular visit to an oral health professional (at least once, but preferably twice a year).

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTAINING A HIGH LEVEL OF ORAL HYGIENE.
