Oral Health

Oral health refers to the overall health of the mouth, teeth, gums, and related structures, which is essential for maintaining proper function, aesthetics, and overall well-being. It encompasses a range of practices, including the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of dental diseases and conditions, as well as the promotion of good hygiene habits such as brushing and flossing teeth, regular dental check-ups, and a healthy diet. Oral health is critical because poor dental health can lead to various issues, including tooth decay, gum disease, and other systemic health problems. Good oral health contributes to an individual’s ability to speak, eat, and socialize effectively, and it plays a significant role in overall health and quality of life.
