Oral health includes the health of the teeth, gums, tongue, and the full oral-facial system. Poor oral health can contribute to a range of other health conditions and often aligns with risk factors for many chronic diseases. Supporting good oral hygiene is an important part of overall wellness.

Effective strategies include brushing twice a day for two minutes, flossing each day, and seeing a dental provider on a regular basis. These actions help preserve oral health throughout the lifespan.
