Your dental health defines your smile and helps you taste the food you eat. It is an essential part of your overall health. Poor oral hygiene can result in dental cavities and gum disease, and also linked to heart diseases, cancer, and diabetes.

You need to take care of your teeth and gums daily to make them healthy and strong throughout life. Learning proper hygiene habits like brushing, flossing, and low sugar intake in the early stage of life can help you avoid serious dental problems and costly dental procedures later.

Here are some facts about dental and oral health:

• Tooth decay is the most common oral disease, which is also known as dental cavities, and it’s a disease that affects our gums too.
• An estimation – 5-20 % of middle-aged adults are affected by the acute problems of periodontal diseases, which can result in tooth loss.
• Approximately 60-90 % of kids worldwide have the chances of facing tooth decay
• As the dental treatment costs very high, it is estimated that developed countries spend 5-10 % on dental of the overall health expenditure.

Basic causes of oral and dental health diseases:

• Not brushing teeth regularly
• Plaque formation due to the bacteria, acid, and other food particles stuck between the teeth
• Formation of less saliva makes the mouth dry, resulting in plaque deposits automatically
• High sugar intake may also affect your oral and dental health. It is not practical to avoid all kinds of food with high sugar availability in them, but we can minimise them to maintain our dental health.

If you find anything abnormal like pain or swelling in or around your teeth, you must go to see a doctor before it gets worse.
