It is time to add your dentist to your speed dial because you should visit him/her regularly as of now. More especially if you are a pregnant woman.

Electric toothbrushes sweeps away plaque more effeciently than manuak ones". Oral hygiene may be an after thought to many people,but it should be made part of people's daily regimes. Not only will this mean longevity of your life,it also means having a healthy body and more especially your mouth. Its funny how the human body works. Who would have thought that your teeth have huge impact on how long you will live? So as of today,brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes for the good health of your teeth and heart.
