How to avoid dental problems
2
  • People who maintain a good oral hygiene program
    can prevent dental conditions such as gum
    disease, cavities and tooth loss in the future
    says a Dentist in Dubai.  However, it is evident
    that maintaining good oral hygiene is a global
    health challenge, and educating people on the
    prevention and problems resulting in poor oral
    hygiene is providing to be increasingly difficult.

  • The Dubai Dentistry has stressed the need for a
    good oral care regime from an early age. It is
    important for dentists, hygienists and
    specialists, to do their part and ensure that
    patients get the best possible care and
    commitment to eradicate diseases associated with
    poor oral hygiene, such as gum disease. Most
    Dental Clinics in Dubai offer a variety dental
    care in Dubai including prevention and treatment
    of oral disease with specific advice on,
    prevention, nutrition, use of fluoride, pit and
    fissure sealants and teeth bleaching and other
    procedures.

Creating Awareness
  • Some of the best ways to create awareness to good
    oral hygiene and especially among children is the
    use of good oral hygiene tips displayed in
    schools, mobile oral health checks, introduction
    of dental hygiene apps and online education using
    fun games for children, using childrens role
    models, icons and heroes, to promote good oral
    health, cards of icons via any media, a reminder
    system for regular dental checkups and keeping
    appointments have been identified as very
    effective methods in reaching the younger
    generation to follow a good oral care routine.

5
The System
  • The system is very unlikely to hit home with the
    older generation who are set in their ways and
    not always flexible to modern approaches and
    promotional campaigns. However, the rationale for
    this is that when children are taught to take
    responsibility for something and make it a part
    of themselves, the adults are forced to accept it
    and modify their conduct.

6
Practice!
  • In order to maintain good oral health it should
    be practiced along with a good diet consisting of
    a healthy food and nutrition is important. The
    consumption of sugar based food and fizzy drinks
    are the main culprits and should be eliminated
    from ones diet. With children, eliminating sugar
    completely from their diet is impossible,
    therefore parents should make sure that sugar
    and sweets are eaten before a main meal or the
    child brushes and flosses immediately after
    consuming sugar or sugar based food.

7
Visit a dentist
  • However, having a good oral care regime is not
    enough to ensure good oral hygiene, regular
    visits to your dentist is also important to treat
    problems with oral health, children may need to
    visit the dentists at least twice a year and
    adults will need to do the same unless specified
    by the dentist.
