People should remember to floss regularly.

Individuals worried about their oral health should ensure they floss regularly, it has been claimed.

Dentistry IQ reported Chicago periodontist Dr Robert Pick has said people should be aware of the dangers of not flossing regularly, as this can lead to gingivitis and other periodontal diseases.

In fact, Dr Pick claimed poor oral health is a contributory factor to cardiovascular disease and this accounts for the deaths of more than 2,400 people per day.

As a result, he highlighted the importance of regular brushing and flossing and maintaining a good oral health routine at all times.

Elsewhere, I-Newswire recently reported the use of teeth whitening gels or strips may be pointless if a person does not carry out a good oral health routine.

The publication noted that ensuring teeth are kept clean and healthy will make sure plaque build-up is kept to a minimum so stains and yellowing of teeth can be kept under control.
