Dentalplans.com Makes Moms Smile Through Pinterest Contest
DentalPlans.com Raises Awareness of the Importance of Women’s Oral Health
If you are looking to make your mom smile for Mother’s Day, look no further. DentalPlans.com asks you to pin what you want to give to your mom for Mother’s Day and get a chance to win it for free, by visiting DentalPlans.com’s Pinterest Page at pinterest.com/dentalplans*. Through the contest wants to reward Moms for taking care of the family’s oral health needs and also wants to raise awareness of the importance for women’s oral health. Women may be more susceptible to oral health problems from dental plaque buildup due to their unique hormonal influences and cycles, according to the American Academy of Periodontology.
Hormonal changes occur throughout a woman's life, and related to these hormonal flunctuations are changes in oral health. Puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause all can have an effect on a woman's oral health. Some women will experience oral changes that can include bright red swollen gums, swollen salivary glands, development of canker sores or cold sores, bleeding gums, gingivitis, and dry mouth.
According to the Surgeon General’s Report on Oral Health, a growing body of research has also linked gum disease to a variety of health problems that affect women, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and respiratory problems.
“Good oral health is part of being healthy and we believe everyone should have access to quality dental care,” states Carla Hudson, chief marketing officer at DentalPlans.com. “Some 100 million Americans fail to see a dentist each year, even though regular dental examinations and good oral hygiene can prevent most dental diseases. And a lack of dental insurance and costly, out-of-pocket expenses is a major factor for many people not seeking the oral care they need.”
The best defense for women is to brush and floss daily and see a dentist regularly. DentalPlans.com offers these basic principles for good oral health:
1. Brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride-containing toothpaste and floss at least once a day.
2. Visit your dentist twice a year for a profession oral examinant and cleaning.
3. Eat a well balanced diet.
4. Avoid sugary or starchy snacks.
5. Ask your dentist if he or she thinks you should use an antimicrobial mouth rinse.
6. If you have dry mouth, ask your dentist about treatments for this condition.
