Oral Hygiene

A radiant smile begins with a healthy foundation — your oral hygiene. While regular dental checkups are essential, what you do at home plays a crucial role in ensuring your teeth and gums stay in optimal condition. At 1021 Dental, we believe in empowering our patients with knowledge to maintain exceptional oral hygiene from the comfort of their homes.

Whether you have a pristine dental record or have faced oral health challenges in the past, diligent at-home care is the key to preventing issues. It becomes especially critical if you have undergone restorative dental treatments as they require extra attention to ensure your smile’s longevity.

Home oral hygiene primarily involves brushing and flossing, but it is more than just a routine. Our experienced dentist and team can guide you on proper techniques, the right toothbrush, toothpaste and floss for your unique needs. Dr. Srinivas Iragavarapu will also discuss habits like avoiding excessive sugary foods and tobacco use, which can dramatically impact your oral health.

Maintaining good oral health at home offers numerous advantages. Regular at-home care can help prevent dental problems, ensuring your smile stays bright and healthy. It also contributes to fresh breath, reduced dental expenses and improved overall wellbeing, as a healthy mouth is linked to better overall health. At 1021 Dental, we are committed to helping you achieve and maintain a beautiful smile.
