Dentist in Ellerslie, Auckland
Your teeth are something you want to last a lifetime.
General and Restorative Dentistry is essential for patients suffering oral conditions, as it enables these problems to be resolved and for patients to regain their overall well-being.
Research indicates inadequate oral health can influence the severity of other conditions within the body.
Sufferers of poor oral health have a greater risk of developing Heart Disease, Respiratory Disease, Cardiovascular Disease and Stroke. Therefore, it may be said that overall well-being may just begin in the mouth!
Routine dental check-ups combined with day to day oral hygiene techniques will help prevent the need for oral restorations and keep your teeth healthy and vibrant. We recommend visiting us every six months for a thorough examination and clean. Other steps which can be taken to increase the health of your teeth and gums include;
- Use a soft toothbrush with rounded bristles
- Replace your toothbrush every three to four months
- Brush twice daily
- Use toothpaste with fluoride
- Floss once daily
- Avoid tobacco products
- Avoid excessive alcohol use
