29 BEST local Dentist in Pakenham Upper VIC | Yellow Pages®

Been a while since your last dentist appointment?

Good oral hygiene is essential for overall health and wellbeing. Sink your teeth into these tips for a healthy mouth, teeth and gums:

Brush your teeth twice a day, at least!

Don’t forget to brush your tongue too, using a soft bristle toothbrush.

Make flossing a daily practice.

Try avoid smoking if possible.

Have a good and thorough inspection of your mouth on a regular basis, checking for any potential symptoms of oral disease. Here be sure to inspect teeth, inside of cheeks, under the tongue,  top of mouth, gums and of course teeth.

If you notice unusually bad breath this could potentially indicate an infection.

Keep a healthy diet. This involves restricting your intake of drink and foods particularly rich in sugars that can be harmful for your teeth.

Following these guidelines, together with frequent dentist appointments should ensure your teeth and gums are in a happy and healthy state. You will be less likely to need an emergency dentist. Keep searching our directory for quotes and to find a local dentist near you.
