2. Oral Health = Healthy People
Importance of Dental Health
Good oral health and hygiene is more than just a pretty smile or
ease of chewing and eating. Good oral health impacts general
and overall health throughout a person's life. Oral diseases
have been linked to diabetes, heart disease and stroke.
It is important that dental care starts at a young age. Untreated
cavities in children can result in pain, infection, poor
attentiveness in class, missed school and low self-esteem.
Adults can experience severe oral or facial pain from cavities,
gum disease and other oral infections, most of which can be
prevented. Your dentist can provide preventive care to
maintain oral health and detect problems at an early stage.

5. How should we care for our teeth
Good oral hygiene. Floss between teeth before brushing.
And chewing toothpaste on a piece of foam before
brushing helps to force paste into the grooves of
teeth.
Regular teeth brushing. Plaque can be removed by
brushing with a fluoride-based toothpaste which
helps saliva repair teeth. Plaque cannot be removed
by rinsing alone. Brushing twice a day after meals
will protect teeth. Children under the age of six
should use low-fluoride toothpaste.
Regular visits to the dentist. Regular checks at the
dentist are an important part of maintaining healthy
teeth and gums. Children should visit their dentist
every six months.
Eat a healthy diet. Snack on foods that are less
acidic or sweet, such as cheese, nuts,
apples, carrots and celery. And limit sugary
foods and drinks such as juice, soft drinks
and sports drinks as they soften teeth. Milk-
based drinks are preferable. Water is better
still.
Drink tap water. The introduction of fluoride in
water and toothpaste reduced the amount
of tooth decay in most of Australia. But
remember, bottled water does not contain
fluoride.
Protect teeth. During sport, wear a
professionally-fitted mouth guard and/or
helmet.
Quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption.
Tobacco and alcohol intake are risk factors
for oral cancers. A smoker’s ability to heal is
significantly reduced compared to that of
non-smokers
