What comes to mind when you hear the term “healthy living?” A dinner plate with a grilled chicken breast and a tossed salad? The sound of your feet rhythmically hitting the ground on your favorite jogging footpath? A cholesterol test indicating that your arteries are in great shape? If you pictured a white, healthy smile or a dental X-ray showing no cavities, we salute you.
At The Yuma Dentist, we urge everyone with a smile (that includes you!) to include oral health in your definition of “healthy living.”
When done appropriately and consistently, brushing and flossing are an integral component of everyday oral hygiene. Brushing should be done at least twice a day. We recommend a soft-bristled toothbrush to safeguard your gums. Brush your teeth in small, circular motions for 2-3 minutes, and make certain you reach all the surfaces.
Flossing should be done once a day and is necessary for reaching the areas where a toothbrush cannot. A wide variety of floss can be found at Yuma stores, so experiment until find one you like.
I’m Dr Roopinder Mann of The Yuma Dentist. As a healthcare provider, I am enthusiastic about helping each of my patients benefit from oral health and avoid dental problems that can compromise their all-around health.
And just as some healthcare providers provide cosmetic procedures, I also offer services that improve the aesthetics of your smile. Ask us about porcelain veneers, dental implants, invisible braces, white fillings, inlays/onlays, and same-day teeth whitening.
