Women are better than men when it comes to taking care of their teeth.

Monday, May 16th, 2011

A recent study showed that women are almost twice as likely to have received a regular dental check-up in the past year, and women were more likely to book the recommended treatment after going for a dental check-up.

The woman who took part in the study also had better indicators of periodontal health, which included lower incidence of dental plaque, calculus and bleeding on probing; all of which can be used as markers of periodontal disease.

The study also suggested that women have a better understanding of what oral health entails, and showed a more positive attitude towards making dental visits.

‘Here at The Liverpool Dental Spa we inform all our patients how important it is that everyone maintains good periodontal health, and maintain their dental checkups.

‘With increasing research indicating that people’s periodontal health may be related to their overall health, it has never been more important to ensure the health of your teeth and gums. Your not healthy until you are periodontally healthy.’

To assess your risk for periodontal disease come in to the Liverpool Dental Spa today and book a cosmetic consultation with one of our dentists.
