Supporting Healthy Smiles
The state of your teeth can affect your ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and show your emotions by smiling. Dental health is essential for your well-being – which is why it is so important to regularly brush, floss, and visit your dentist.
In addition to keeping your teeth bright and healthy, during a visit to our health center’s Dental Department, our dentists and hygienists can:
- Help prevent tooth loss. It can be difficult to keep teeth and gum lines free from plaque and tartar. Regular, professional cleanings can reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum infections, preventing tooth loss.
- Reduce bad breath. Plaque buildup leads to halitosis (and the resulting bad breath). Our dentists and hygienists can help by cleaning away plaque and advising you on proper brushing and flossing techniques.
- Detect various conditions. Sometimes, the first sign of a disease is a dental problem, like gum infections or mouth lesions. If your dentist notices these, they can advise you to meet with your primary physician.
