This is such a great Infographic showcasing how important your oral health is and the knock-on effects it can have on your body and overall health and well-being. Taking excellent care of your mouth, teeth and gums is a worthy goal in itself. Good oral and dental hygiene can help prevent bad breath, tooth decay and gum disease—and can help you keep your teeth as you get older.

How can I protect my oral health?

To protect your oral health, practice good oral hygiene every day. For example:

  • Brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
  • Floss daily.
  • Eat a healthy diet and limit between-meal snacks.
  • Replace your toothbrush every three to four months or sooner if bristles are frayed.
  • Schedule regular dental checkups and cleanings.
  • Avoid tobacco use.
If you haven't already we suggest you book our new patient examination. This is an incredibly thorough and detailed examination to allow us to analyse and draw up a comprehensive treatment plan best suited to you. More details of the specifics of our new patient examination can be found here

At Duxton Dental we are always investing in dental innovations and technology so it only seemed logical to update our website to something a little modern. We still wanted it to be a resource of information, tips and advice and that hasn't changed. It will however, be a lot easier to navigate and use on a mobile device and we have also brought it up to modern web standards so that it is fully secure and encrypted.

As part of our new website, we are introducing a blog/news section. This is a great environment for us to be keeping all our patients and potential new patients up to date with all that is happening with us. More importantly we will be using it as a resource to offer advice, tips case studies and industry news to keep you well informed and up to date with all our procedures and the health benefits of them. 

Please feel free to take a look round the new website and if you have any feedback or would like to see certain topics covered in our blog/news section then please do not hesitate to let us know!
