Good oral health is a critical part of overall health that we sometimes neglect. Fortunately the New Year is the perfect time to make (and carry out!) resolutions that support healthy habits.
Whether it’s improving tooth brushing, completing dental treatments, or practicing mouth-healthy habits, wellness resolutions are always in season. The benefits of setting goals can be rewarding, motivating and result in better health.
Eating disorders not only affect your health and body but also adversely affect the health of your teeth and gums. That’s why people with eating disorders should look after their oral health.
Here’s how your mouth can be affected by this disorder:
Mucosa – the gums may become inflamed, red or develop ulcers.
Teeth – the teeth can be at risk of decay and eventually enamel erosion. Tooth erosion is the thinning of the outer surface of the teeth and is caused by acid from your stomach or from acidic foods you consume.
There are a multitude of ways to improve your smile. And in modern dentistry, there are specific solutions for every smile issue you have. Sometimes the solution can be as simple as a dental check-up but if you want to take things one-step further cosmetic dental procedures are your best options.
Improving your smile can highly benefit your emotional outlook and personal life. And if you are not satisfied with your current smile, the best person you can go to is your dentist. They can recommend the best solution for your smile, and enhance it according to your desires.
Imagine what happens to your mouth if you don’t brush and floss your teeth for even a single day. Your teeth surfaces become rough and when you check your breath, the smell will be surely unpleasant.
This is why brushing and flossing your teeth is a very important routine. It keeps your teeth feeling clean and healthy. Here are the other benefits of brushing and flossing:
• Whiter teeth and brighter smile
• Cleaner mouth, fresher breath
• Healthy and firm gums
• Saves money and avoids costly dental procedures
The mouth is the gateway to the body. Taking care of it, including your teeth, will increase your overall health.
