In addition by having regular dental visits it will help prevent problems from developing. Continuity of care is an important part of any health plan and dental health is no exception. Keeping your mouth healthy is an essential piece of your overall health. It is also important to keep your dentist informed of any changes in your overall health since many medical conditions can affect your dental health as well.
