Dental Hygiene

Dental hygiene involves practices that maintain the health of the teeth and mouth, such as regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups. Maintaining dental hygiene prevents a range of issues such as cavities and gum disease and is also pivotal for overall health, given the links between oral health and other health conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes. Moreover, dental health also plays a role

in digestive health, as the process of digestion begins with mechanical digestion in the mouth.

In addition to its physical health implications, dental hygiene also has impacts on mental and social health. Issues with dental health can impact self-esteem and social interactions, and maintaining dental hygiene can also foster confidence and social well-being. Ensuring access to dental healthcare services and products is therefore also pivotal for mental and social health.

Educational initiatives that foster dental hygiene from an early age, and ensuring that populations have access to dental healthcare services, are pivotal for public health. Policies and programs that facilitate access to dental care, particularly among underresourced populations, can mitigate health disparities and enhance overall public health.

Ensuring adequate Calcium intake is pivotal in the context of dental hygiene, given the mineral’s crucial role in maintaining tooth health. Adequate Calcium, whether through diet or supplementation, supports the structure and strength of teeth, and plays a preventative role in conditions such as cavities and gum disease.
