Choosing the Right Bolton Dentist

The Daily Telegraph published an article last month that suggests dentists should pass on diet, alcohol and smoking cessation tips to their patients in a bid to help the keep their teeth clean and healthy.

This is based on a report originating from a Nuffield Trust and Health Foundation, which indicates that the provision of such advice will not only improve the appearance of patients’ teeth but also help reduce cases of obesity, diabetes and heart disease.

When left untreated, gum disease has been linked to these serious health conditions. The theory is that those who practise good dental health will also practise good physical health.

Here at the Harwood Dental Practice in Bolton, our Harwood dentists will give you suggestions on ways you can look after your teeth more efficiently, with a view to saving you money on expensive (and potentially) painful dental treatment further down the line.

It’s up to you whether or not you take the impartial advice of our Harwood dentists, but you might just find that by changing your brushing technique slightly, you can avoid cavities and the need for fillings, not to mention prevent your gums from becoming red and swollen.
