Stress and Dental Care
The Oral Hygiene Impact
Stress can affect dental hygiene by increasing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and oral infections. In the U.S., stress-related oral health issues are prevalent among adults and children.
To maintain dental hygiene, practice stress management techniques such as regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups. Addressing stress supports optimal oral health and reduces the risk of dental problems.
