dental health and maintenance
what is general dental health?
Dental health or hygiene generally refers to preventative dental care. Your dental health is up to you most of the year and then supplemented with professional dentistry and a cleaning provided by a licensed dental hygienist twice a year.

There are two main things that can make a huge difference:
-
brush your teeth 2 times daily (this won't remove all plaque build-up)
-
floss your teeth 1 time a day (the one way to really get inbetween all your teeth)
Other things that can effect the health of your teeth are diet and genetics.
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends that you visit your dentist and dental hygienist a minimum of two times a year to maintain proper dental hygiene.
