Top 10 Ways to Please Your Dentist:zzdance:

Have you ever wished that you could please your dentist at your check up appointments? These 10 tips can show you how to make your dentist happy as well as how you can maintain good dental health in between your regular visits.

1) Brush Your Teeth
Brushing your teeth helps to remove plaque which causes tooth decay.

2) Floss Your Teeth
Flossing your teeth daily helps to remove food debris and plaque from in between the teeth that a toothbrush can't reach. A build up of plaque in between your teeth can lead to gum disease. Gum disease is the number one cause of adult tooth loss.

3) Get Regular Dental Cleanings
Regular check ups and cleanings can prevent and detect many dental problems and diseases as well as provide you with good oral hygiene.

4) Get Your Cavities filled
If you have cavities, get them filled! Tooth decay does not go away on its own, it will only get worse. If the decay reaches the pulp of the tooth, a root canal would most likely be needed to save the tooth.

5) Eat a Well Balanced Diet
Plague thrives on the starches and sugars that are found in most junk food. When plaque combines with the sugars and starches, an acid is produced that attacks tooth enamel and eventually causes decay. Eating a nutritious diet can help promote better dental health.

6) Avoid Toothaches
There is almost nothing worse that a toothache. Regular visits to your dentist can keep your mouth healthy as well as prevent toothaches before they happen.

7) Prevent Bad Breath
Bad breath can be very embarrassing, but it is a common condition that affects millions of people. Dental studies show that about 85 percent of people with persistent bad breath, also known as halitosis have a dental problem that is to blame.

8) Learn About Dental Insurance
Dental insurance can be very confusing and it is very different from medical insurance. Learning about how dental insurance works will help you to utilize your benefits and even save money.

9) Sign up for The Free Weekly Newsletter
To be sure that you are staying up to date on the latest dental information, sign up for the free weekly dental care newsletter.

10) Join the Discussion
The dental forum is a great way to ask questions and chat with others about dental topics that interest you. Joining the forum is fun and easy.
