If you’re anything like most – you’re busy with day-to-day life. Sometimes your to-do list is so long, that things get forgotten. However, visiting your dental hygienist shouldn’t be bottom of your list!
It can be difficult to see the importance of regular visits, especially when it feels like there’s nothing wrong. That’s why we’ve written this blog – detailing the four reasons why visiting the hygienist in between your dental appointments should be one of your priorities!
There is a link there between your dental health and your general wellbeing. When one is poor – it affects the other. The condition of your teeth, mouth and gums can affect other parts of your body, including your respiratory system and digestion – to name a few.
Looking after your oral health is important, regardless. But knowing the connection it has with your general health should act as a motivator to visit the dentist and hygienist more often. They’ll keep an eye on those ‘hard-to-reach’ spots, so they don’t cause you trouble in the future.
Our team is trained to spot things that you may miss at home. Our dental professionals check for general issues such as plaque and tooth decay, as well as screening for major illnesses.
Visiting the hygienist is not just for a clean and polish. Visiting regularly helps you learn, and maintain, optimum dental hygiene. You’ll learn how to maintain good oral health at home, using their tips for brushing and flossing.
Optimising how you take care of your teeth at home will help minimise potential future issues.
Perhaps you’re feeling sensitivity, wondering whether your daily brushing habits are doing the trick. You may even be wincing when eating certain foods…
When you regularly visit the hygienist, even those ‘hard-to-reach’ areas will be given a thorough clean, so you have peace of mind, as well as a clean mouth! At Esthetique Dental we want to keep your dental concerns at bay.
