Worldwide dentists earn a hefty chunk out of the pie when it comes to making in the highest money bracket. They fall just short of lawyers, but if we consider dental care insurance, they are just there neck to neck. I know for a fact how my senior Ms. Wardah Inam from GIKI has worked her way into Silicon Valley like Tycoons when she re-discovered the usage of artificial intelligence in dental care via her fresh startup Overjet.

Why dental care is extremely important?

Many people are suffering from oral health issues either due to excessive sugar intake or not brushing or cleaning their teeth. One thing I know, appearances have long mattered in people judging personalities. Teeth bring out the personality oneself. It is noticeable how women with bigger and aligned teeth win the spots for being the most attractive in pageant competitions like Miss Universe and Miss World. You may not like to date a man or a woman with gross teeth with yellow pale scaling. Would you?

Corona and Going to a Dentist

Oral health and dental health an essential parts of our overall health and well-being. Poor oral hygiene can lead to dental cavities and different gum diseases. In this unprecedented time, dental practices are being impacted severely due to closure to protect their patients and staff.

Here are six signs indicating that you should see a professional dentist:

1. Bleeding after brushing or flossing
2. Receding gums
3. Dry mouth
4. Loose or shifting teeth
5. Bumps or sores
6. Toothache

I am inspired by team Hyzer Dental – the Islamabad-based dental specialists. They have resumed their services with terrific precautionary disinfection measures. They have great shaper machines.

Dental health comes with the usual care of oral hygiene from the early steps of life. The more you take care of it, the more you can avoid the dentist. My daily dental care routine includes cleaning my teeth daily. My Tooth Hygiene kit includes dental teeth cleaning tools or teeth care products such as an Oral cleaning kit, extra thin dental floss – Air Floss Pro, Aquasonic Aqua Flosser, and Profresh mouthwash as an oral rinse for bad breath. Sometimes, I carry dental chews such as mints or breath freshener strips such as Listerine Pocket Packs. For the outstation, I carry a travel water pic portable. However, for plaque pick for teeth, I always go to the dentists because they have proper dentist pick tools, plague remover tools, and other teeth cleaning kits for adults.

In the end, here are five tips we all should follow to take care of our dental crown:

1. Brush or Miswak your teeth at least twice a day,
2. Floss daily to reduce the risk of gum diseases,
3. Avoid eating hard foods like crackers, hard candies, and ice as they may lead to a crown crack,
4. Curb the habit of clenching and grinding your teeth and use a mouth guard if needed;
5. See a dentist regularly to ensure your crown is seated and have routine checkups.
