Do not miss your dentist appointment

Yesterday, I was watching the rerun of my favorite TV show called, Charmed, and the episode was about Prue, one of the lead characters, who missed her dental appointment for a couple of times. Okay. I won’t be talking about witches and demons and stuff but when was the last time you visited your dentist for a dental checkup?

Do not ask me. I just went to our family dentist last month for my monthly adjustment of the brackets. But seriously, ignoring your teeth is a bad idea. This might sound weird to you but I think most of people don’t care at all about their teeth. Poor oral hygiene and no precautionary care may result in poor health all over the body as severe gum disease spreads to the blood.

Please parents, as early as possible, make your children visit their dentist regularly like teeth cleaning. It’s a great impact on them. I know a lot of adults today don’t care about their teeth because they just don’t know the word dentist when they were growing up. It just sucks that many people go to dentist because they need a tooth extraction.

That’s awful.

    I go to the dentist three times a year for cleanings and once for the dentist to do a check up. Many people don’t know about what you’ve written about - that you can get sick from having an unhealthy mouth. Parents do need to get their children to the dentist as early as possible and education on the need for dental care needs to continue.
