UK students have been urged to ensure they take their oral health seriously when heading off to university by signing on with a local dentist.
Having access to emergency dentistry treatment is important, especially given the fact that many students have a diet high in sugar, according to Cosmetic Dentistry Guide.
The publication noted that for some students, health issues go out of the window when they get into halls, but it is important to remember that having a poor diet and not brushing teeth regularly can lead to oral health problems in the future.
Furthermore, students should drink plenty of water, as this enables saliva to be produced more easily and in turn, this can help to keep teeth healthy.
AsiaOne Health recently reported that people should remember to brush and floss their teeth regularly in order to maintain good oral health.
The resource noted having a good teeth cleaning routine is important to keep both teeth and gums healthy.
