Did you know that your dental hygienist plays an important role in detecting Oral Cancer? It's true! Your dental hygienist looks for signs of oral cancer on your lips, gums, tongue, throat, and tonsils as part of your routine hygiene appointment. The goal is to detect cancer early and increase the chance that it can be treated effectively. Ask your dental hygienist to learn more about Oral Cancer screening. #PatientFirst #OralCancer #OralCancerScreening #DentalHygiene #StayHealthy #HealthySmile #Healthcare #DentalCare #OralHealth #Smile

Did you know that constant snacking, especially on sugary treats, can increase your risk of tooth decay?

Sticky sweets are some of the worst treats for your teeth. Gummy fruit snacks and chewy candies get stuck in the grooves of your teeth and can stay there for hours, eating away at your enamel. If you choose to eat sweets, then plan to do so with a regular meal. The increased flow of saliva at mealtimes helps to dilute and wash away sugars. #PatientFirst #Candy #StickySweets #OralHealthTips #StayHealthy #HealthySmile #Healthcare #DentalCare #OralHealth #Smile

Along with proper brushing and flossing habits, drinking plenty of water is a great way to keep you and your mouth healthy. Drinking water not only keeps you hydrated, but also helps to flush out your mouth which reduces bacteria, acid, and food particles on your teeth and gums. #DrinkWater #Hydrate #DentalHygiene #OralHealthTips #PatientFirst #StayHealthy #HealthySmile #Healthcare #DentalCare #OralHealth #Smile
