Keeping You Healthy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our dentist in Central London<\/strong> isn\u2019t here just to be the bearer of bad news, they\u2019re here to keep an eye on your health. We all know we each only get one set of teeth, so we really do need to take care of them the best we can when we care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The condition of your teeth can also be a pretty good indication of how healthy you are. Teeth with lots of decay and gum disease could be signs of a couple of underlying health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poor Hygiene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental hygiene is often neglected, with people spending far too little time tending to their teeth. It\u2019s very common for many to have a quick scrub-and-spit and move on, and this just doesn\u2019t cut the mustard. Spending at least two minutes brushing twice a day and a flossing session is the bare minimum required to maintain healthy teeth and gums. And sure, this can feel like a boring task, but it\u2019s really an act of self-care, one that is seriously needed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also good to take a second to evaluate what poor oral hygiene tells you about yourself. If you aren\u2019t willing to invest this little bit of time in yourself, then you should ask yourself why that is. It\u2019s a very small thing that could make a big difference to your health, and as such, it should be taken seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another major cause of poor dental health, both in terms of gum disease and decay but more so decay, are poor diets, more particularly, diets high in sugars or acids. These diets aren\u2019t easy to avoid because so much of what we now consume has some sort of acid or sugar content. That being said, being conscious and smart is really important. For example, if you are going to consume acid\/sugary drinks such as coca cola or lemonade, then you can use a straw as this will protect your teeth. Also, we at Cannon Street Dental Centre<\/strong> recommend investing in a miniature travel toothbrush for when you\u2019re out and about in order to remove any food from your teeth. Mouthwash is also another handy tool, but it shouldn\u2019t be used as a replacement for twice-daily brushing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Dentist in Central London<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
