Winter is coming, and if you are anything like us, you are likely busy preparing for the holidays to celebrate with family and friends.
Your dentist, Dr. Victor Zeines, strongly recommends brushing your teeth twice a day as part of an effective oral hygiene routine. Do you ever wonder why you need to brush? Well, our dental team is happy to help you. Brushing can help you in many ways, which means there are many reasons to brush your teeth regularly. Those reasons are:
-Brushing removes plaque from your teeth and gumline (This can help you prevent gum disease, which is a very serious dental issue that can affect your oral and overall health)
-Brushing removes bacteria from your smile (This can help you prevent tooth decay, which is also a very serious dental issue)
-Brushing can whiten the teeth (Because it can remove minor tooth stains and give you a brighter smile, especially if you use whitening toothpaste)
-Brushing can help you save money (Because it can help you prevent expensive and invasive dental problems down the road)
-Brushing can give you a fresh breath (Because it removes the odorous bacteria from the mouth)
-Brushing can help you have a better overall health (Because the mouth and body are connected. When you care for your oral health, you care for your overall health)
-Brushing can help you stay kissable (Because no one wants to kiss someone with food stuck in their teeth and bad breath)
