Your daily dental hygiene is one of the biggest factors in your periodontal health. This can be for better or worse based on your individual habits. Brushing, flossing, a sensible diet and diligent biannual checkups all contribute to healthy dental hygiene and reduced risk of developing gum disease. It is also wise to abstain from tobacco, alcohol, and foods high in sugar.
Maintaining good dental hygiene is simple but it goes quite a long way. We invite you to Lehigh Valley Smiles to ensure that your efforts have been effective and provide any necessary periodontal health treatments, including scaling and root planning and professional cleanings.
