Adhere to the basics of oral hygiene Sutton

Asking someone to stick to a set of rules is often not enough to get them to obey those rules. Invariably, the reasons for the rules need to be explained so that there is an understanding of what happens if you don’t adhere to them. Education is vital to us in every walk of life for us to grow and develop. At Benhill Dental Practice, we believe that preventive dentistry starts with oral hygiene Sutton. The results of poor oral hygiene can be catastrophic; not only can you lose your teeth, but your relationships can be severely damaged. Poor oral hygiene can allow bacteria and plaque to thrive between and around your teeth, causing tooth decay, bad breath and gum disease, all of which are absolutely unnecessary if you are willing to adhere to a few basic rules.

Relationships develop understanding and reduce stress!

We are very committed to our patients and consider you to be more than a patient. We want to get to know you and understand your dental expectations so that we can develop a dental treatment program designed specifically to fulfil your personal needs. Oral hygiene Sutton is always high on our list, and because we develop relationships with our patients, we can be candid with you about the state of your oral hygiene. Our relationships create a feeling of trust that means we can tell you if you are suffering from bad breath and how to eliminate it through proper oral hygiene Sutton.

A precious asset

It is necessary to realise just how precious your adult teeth are because you only get one set in your life, and once you have lost them, they are gone! We take our cars for regular maintenance and are careful with our financial investments, and our teeth should be as high up on the priority list of asset protection. We seem to forget that our mouths are the portals through which we feed ourselves, so surely we should ensure that our mouths are healthy.

Follow a simple formula

We will advise you on the right toothbrush for your teeth and gums. We are all different, and the type of bristles and toothpaste you use needs to suit you as an individual. When it comes to teeth and gums, there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all. Regularity is vital to maintaining good oral hygiene; brush and floss at least twice a day, preferably after meals, and make regular six monthly dental visits for checkups and hygienist treatment. The procedure for maintaining your teeth and gums is simple and does not require any major expense or effort.
