Have you ever felt self-conscious about your smile or the way your teeth look? Well, it's time to put those insecurities aside and embrace what makes your mouth unique. Your smile is a powerful tool that can brighten someone's day and make a lasting impression. So, let's dive into why it’s important to take care of our oral health and how we can show off our pearly whites with pride, especially when we're celebrating World Oral Health Day!
What in the world is "Oral Health Day"?
World Oral Health Daycelebrates the benefits of good oral health and highlights the importance of oral hygiene around the world and the theme for 2023 is "Be Proud of Your Mouth"
The day aims to promote proper oral care and raise awareness about common dental problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and mouth cancer. It also seeks to encourage people to visit their dentist regularly and practice good oral hygiene habits at home.
And as a brand with an oral care star product, of course we're celebrating this day with great pride!
So just how seriously are we taking care of our oral health?
It's no secret that oral health care is important, but how common is it? How often do people brush their teeth or floss? What about mouthwash?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about half of American adults aged 30 and over have some form of periodontal disease. That number jumps to 70% for adults 65 and over. And although brushing teeth twice a day, flossing daily, and using mouthwash can help reduce the risk of developing periodontal disease, only about one-third of adults do all three. So what does this mean for your oral health care routine? First, if you're not already doing so, start brushing your teeth twice a day, flossing daily, and using mouthwash. And second, don't forget to see your dentist regularly for professional cleanings and checkups.
