Did you know that September is Gum Care Awareness Month? Healthy gums are vital to a healthy body, and statistically, gum disease and poor dental health are the leading causes of tooth loss in adults who are 35 years or older. Maintaining good oral health is one of the simplest things you can do for your health, and you just need three important items to do it well. The three items are:
🪥
A quality, soft-bristled toothbrush that's the appropriate size for your mouth
✨
Quality toothpaste
🦷
Dental floss, either traditional dental floss, a floss pick, or a flosser*Make sure all your dental products carry the American Dental Association Seal of Acceptance, so you know you're using a good quality product.
