What Is Dental Hygiene?
Dental hygiene involves regular cleanings, assessments, and personalized care to keep your teeth and gums in their best possible condition. This includes removing plaque and tartar, preventing gum disease, and addressing potential oral health concerns before they become significant problems.
Proper dental hygiene is not just about having a bright smile – it’s essential for preventing cavities, gum disease, and other health complications linked to poor oral health, like heart disease and diabetes.
