Dental hygiene and oral health are often taken for granted but essential to our everyday lives. It is one of the main preventive measures for oral diseases and is integral to overall health. Poorly doing your oral hygiene can lead to cavities, gum disease, and other problems. So brush and floss daily, and see a dentist regularly to keep your smile healthy. It also helps to improve your diet by avoiding sugary drinks. 

Dental hygienists are oral health care professionals who provide educational, clinical and therapeutic services to support optimal oral health. They work closely with dentists and other healthcare providers to develop and implement individualized oral healthcare plans. 

Dental hygienists are responsible for removing plaque, tartar and stains from teeth and providing fluoride treatments and sealants. They also educate patients on proper oral hygiene techniques and provide guidance on maintaining a healthy mouth.
