4 – How can I maintain good oral health?

You can maintain a healthy mouth if you practice regular oral hygiene (teeth and tongue) at specific times of the day.
Proper brushing technique is essential, and regular visits to your dentist can help you in this regard.
Your dentist is not only there to examine you, but to guide you by teaching you proper hygiene techniques for practicing at home and maintaining good oral health.
