Oral Health Matters to Your Overall Health
* Brought to you by Violife
From a young child we have been taught to take care of our teeth. Brushing two to three times a day will make sure that we not only have clean teeth that stay healthy, but also help to prevent gum disease and other issues. Oral health is important to our overall health.
From the CDC, a paper on Oral Health – Preventing Cavities, Gum Disease, Tooth Loss, and Oral Cancers At A Glance 2011 offers two oral issues that lead to other health problems.
Tooth decay (cavities) is a common, preventable problem for people of all ages. For children, untreated cavities can cause pain, dysfunction, school absences, difficulty concentrating, and poor appearance—problems that greatly affect a child’s quality of life and ability to succeed.
Periodontal (gum) disease is an infection caused by bacteria that gets under the gum tissue and begins to destroy the gums and bone. Teeth become loose, chewing becomes difficult, and teeth may have to be extracted. Gum disease also may be connected to damage elsewhere in the body; recent studies link oral infections with diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and premature, low-weight births. Further research is under way to examine these connections.
Caring for our teeth and gums does not have to be difficult. With fabulous sonic toothbrushes that go anywhere, you can easily care for your teeth at home or on the go.
The Violife Slim Sonic Toothbrush is a sonic powered, portable toothbrush that delivers a sparking smile with 22,000 brush strokes per minute. The slim, mascara-style vented cap design is ideal for the handbag, gym bag or desk drawer. Each Slim Sonic comes with a free replacement head and AAA battery, so you’re ready to go as soon as you open the package!
I love this brush! The head is comfortable in my mouth and is not too big. The brush strokes leave my mouth feeling fabulous and my teeth have never felt cleaner from just brushing! I love that it comes with a cover so you can get several to take with you. Perfect for travel, in your bag and in the home.
Violife offers other oral health care items that are a must have in my opinion. I love the UV travel case. My hubby is going to want that! Plus they offer other cool brushes too. Perfect for taking care of your oral health in a snap, no matter where you are.
