Dental Hygiene at Batista Smile Design

Dental hygiene involves caring for your teeth to keep them looking good and staying healthy. Proper dental hygiene includes:

Keeping Teeth Clean Ensure your teeth are free from debris.
Healthy Gums Gums should be pink and not bleed or hurt during brushing or flossing.
Fresh Breath Maintain fresh breath without any bad odors.

The Importance of Dental Hygiene

Dental hygiene is vital for maintaining oral health. To keep your teeth healthy, white, and free from pain or discomfort, it's essential to maintain a clean mouth. Healthy teeth and gums can boost your confidence and make you feel good about yourself.

Oral health is also linked to overall body health. Untreated infections in the mouth can spread to other body parts through the bloodstream, potentially leading to heart disease, stroke, and other health issues. By maintaining good dental hygiene, you can support your overall health.

Tobacco Use Consumption of tobacco in any form.
Alcohol Consumption Regular alcohol use.
Sun Exposure Spending excessive time in direct sunlight, which increases the risk of lip cancer.
Medical History A history of oral cancer.
