How important is quality of life to you? Most people would answer “critical”. However, most people don’t connect oral health with their general health and overall quality of life. But oral health can directly impact not just these but several other aspects of your life.
Here are 8 of the most common ways that a lack of oral health can harm your life:
- Gum Disease: This condition is characterized by bleeding gums and inflammation.
- Tooth Loss: Missing teeth can take quite a toll on your self-confidence.
- Bad Breath: This can be pretty embarrassing when interacting with others.
- Oral Cancer: Oral cancer can be deadly. However, regular checkups can lead to early detection and treatment before it’s too late.
- Poor Bite Quality: An improper bite can cause you not to chew your food correctly, leading to indigestion and other digestive issues.
- Low Self-Esteem and Lack of Confidence: Your smile is your business card. If you’re not confident about your smile, it will be hard to feel good about yourself.
- Discolored Teeth: Our teeth need constant maintenance. Improper brushing and not flossing can lead to yellow, stained, and unsightly teeth.
- Dental Pain: Pain is our body’s way of telling us something is wrong. It can affect our sleep, mood, and quality of life. Pay close attention to any pain that you may feel in your mouth.
