Oral Hygiene West Ashley Dentist

The primary benefit of practicing good oral hygiene is avoiding the development of periodontal disease. This disease can cause irreversible damage to oral structures. It can result in the loss of bone, gum tissue, and natural teeth. The devastation it can cause to a patient’s smile can have a negative effect on the health and appearance of his or her teeth, and may be expensive to restore with cosmetic dentistry.

Good oral hygiene can improve a patient’s overall health and wellbeing. Studies have consistently shown that the development of periodontal disease can result in an increased risk for other medical conditions such as strokes, heart attacks, and diabetes. When patients do not take appropriate care of their teeth, oral disease can develop and the bacteria in their mouth can carry into their bloodstream and affect other parts of the body. Maintaining good oral health is essential to maintaining a healthy mouth-and body!
