For good oral health, the American Dental Association recommends that you brush your teeth twice a day and floss once per day. But brushing and flossing aren’t the only ways to keep your mouth healthy and clean.
Regular dental care can help prevent gum disease and the need for root canals or gum surgery in the future. Dental care helps you maintain fresh breath and good oral health. When you see a dentist regularly, they can also diagnose and treat problems faster, which helps improve your long-term health.
