Oral Hygiene may Boost Your Confidence And Self-Esteem.
According to recent research study, 90 per cent of the world population are vulnerable to dental health problems in their lifetime, which are basically caused by unhealthy diet, tobacco, alcohol, poor oral hygiene, social determinants and low or poor funding for prevention, detection and treatment by government and health organizations.
Worldwide, 60 to 90 per cent of children and nearly 100 per cent of adults have dental cavities, a disease which can be prevented by maintaining a constant low level of fluoride in the oral cavity, while severe periodontal (gum) disease, which may result in tooth loss, is found in 15 to 20 per cent of middle-aged (35-44 years) adults.
Risk factors for oral diseases include an unhealthy diet, tobacco use, harmful alcohol use, poor oral hygiene, and social determinants.
Traditional curative dental care is a significant economic burden for many high-income countries, where 5 to 10 per cent of public health expenditure relates to oral health.
The high cost of dental treatment can be avoided by effective prevention and health promotion measures.
