In today’s world, there is a new gidget for every gadget, and all have an instructional manual to help us understand all the warnings of damage that improper use could cause. More importantly, though, the manual also comes with a list of benefits, including a statement of guarantee that if we maintain the said product at a high level, our items will last for, as they say, “the lifetime of the product.”
Unfortunately, we are no longer worried about the once cherished guarantee, for if it breaks, we will quickly buy another.
Now What About Our Teeth?
When it comes to our health and body mechanics and parts, we have also evolved into a disposable society.
Unlike mechanical devices, some say our marvelous bodies are one of the best-designed machines equipped with advanced warning signals and profound survival strategies that can self-maintain and repair. With proper care, some say we are designed to last our lifetime.
That’s where the healthy routine of dental care must play a part in your life, as our teeth are incredibly resilient but can not self-maintain. Plus! Disposable teeth, most commonly known as dentures, should be a last resort, not a way to purchase the next great model of incredible mouth ware.
Invest In The Best – The Original With Proper Dental Care
Most children get their first baby teeth around six to 10 months. The first two teeth most children get are the central incisors, the two bottom front teeth. By the time a child is two and a half to three years old, all 20 of their baby teeth have usually come in.
At about age six, most children lose their baby teeth, which are replaced with adult ones. This process will continue into their early teens. Adults have more teeth than children; most adults have 32 teeth. Among these teeth are eight incisors, four canines, eight premolars, and 12 molars (including four wisdom teeth).
Maintenance should begin with the appearance of the first tooth. Soft, easy steps can be followed to have your children’s oral health start strong and stay strong. This process begins with your child’s first visit to a dentist by their first birthday.
Care For The Adult Teeth
Proper dental care of routine brushing, flossing, and dental checkups is the best way to restore and maintain the normal function of your teeth, gums, and oral health.
Dental checkups should not be delayed as dentistry has become more than cleaning teeth and making routine repairs. In addition, dentists regularly help patients to recover from health concerns that, on the surface, appear unrelated to a problem in their mouth but are a symptom or warning signal of ill health.
The specialty of dentists has also evolved from restoration, recovery, and maintaining oral health that helps you achieve that happy, healthy smile for a lifetime. In addition, over the years, dentistry has perfected cosmetic dentistry to work in partnership to make your fabulous smile whiter, brighter, and beautifully straight.
