Oral care

Oral health is a crucial aspect of overall health. Everything we consume comes firstly through the mouth – food, water, oxygen and, most of the time, medicine – so maintaining healthy teeth and gums is very important. If neglected, poor oral hygiene can lead to extreme pain, serious conditions and even tooth extractions.
