Brushing and flossing your teeth daily after every meal, seeing your dentist and hygienist regularly, and sticking to a healthy diet with no sugary foods is necessary for excellent oral hygiene, which can lead to many rewarding benefits of a happy, healthy long life.
A Nice Smile
First, good oral hygiene can lead to clean, strong white teeth and a nice smile, which can brighten your day and attract others around you, such as friends, family, co-workers, and strangers on the street, who might feel that same positive energy from your facial expression. If you’re lucky, you might even get that special someone’s attention.
Fresh Breath
But, you don’t want to scare that special person off with bad breath. Having proper dental hygiene, as well as using strong quality mouthwash, can kill harmful germs in your mouth that cause halitosis and have it smelling minty fresh—let alone avoid putting off your possible soulmate with smelly breath.
Eating the Foods You Want
Healthy strong teeth can also enable you to eat any foods you want, even those that might, otherwise, be hard on your choppers such as apples, nuts, and pretzels, or large enough to make it challenging to put in your mouth like submarine sandwiches and double cheeseburgers. It beats using false teeth to grind almonds or utensils to cut your Big Mac into pieces to make it fit in your mouth.
A Promising Social Life
With a clean, fresh mouth with strong healthy white teeth, you should have no problem having the social life that you want. Whether it’s going out on dates or dining out with friends, you are free from worries regarding stained and loose teeth or bad breath to ruin a good time.
No Health Problems
Most importantly, superb dental hygiene and regular checkups can prolong your overall health. Besides oral cancer, routine maintenance on your teeth can prevent other health complications related to gum disease such as blood sugar detriments(as it relates to diabetes), higher risk of dementia, heart and respiratory problems, or, for women, difficulties with fertility.
Less or Shorter Visits to the Dentist/Hygienist
Quality oral hygiene can also, in the long run, save you a trip to the dentist or hygienist’s office—or, at least, your visits will be shorter. With plaque and stains less likely to build up, there would be little work for the dentist in Langley to do on your teeth. Not only would your visits to Amazing Smile Dental become shorter or less, but you just might receive a clean bill of health.
So, maintain good oral hygiene to have a nice smile, clean, healthy, and strong teeth, breath that smells good, and a long, flourishing, social life with little or no trips to your dentist or hygienist. You won’t regret it.
