Dental Hygiene and Treatment by Dentists
It is rightly said that God has given us one of the most precious gifts in the form of teeth, also termed as the ‘32 Pearls’ to not only help us in biting and chewing the food we eat but also to help in speech as well as enhance facial aesthetics.
Accordingly, like any other organ of body, we all are required to take good care of our teeth by maintaining proper hygiene of mouth and teeth so as to prevent dental decay, formation of cavities or developing other diseases of jaws and gums.
