The importance of oral hygiene in London’ S.E.1
12 / 12 / 2010
In London’s busy S.E.1, you can quite often hear people moaning about the cost of dental work they have had to have done recently and it’s true, dental procedures can be expensive. But there’s a good chance that the same people will not be discussing the benefits of good oral hygiene down the pub; if only. Maintaining good oral hygiene is one of the easiest of procedures, yet the most overlooked. How hard can it be? Brush and floss twice a day and a bi-annual check up, and oral health should start at the dentists. There are a lot of products on the market, but a dentist will be able to give advice on the best course of hygiene for you. It starts with the type of brush and paste you use and how you use them. The use of dental floss and mouthwashes are all simple yet affective means to promote a good, healthy mouth. But it’s not only about the products, its lifestyle too. It’s all about understanding ourselves and knowing what we put in our mouths. Diet is very important, as is everything in moderation such as smoking and drinking. Essentially if we play hard, we should clean harder, for in the long run, the price of putting things right can be devastating.
