Do you know your Dental Health?

Every day, we look at ourselves in the mirror, but sometimes many details keep unnoticed while we check ourselves the state of our teeth and gums. On our daily routine we get used to seeing us and we do not realize that over time we may be slowly generating some kind of problems in the mouth such as gingivitis (gums inflammation) or periodontitis (loss of bone mass).

With this test you can quickly find out what is the state the health of your teeth and gums and you will know if you should simply change hygiene habits or need to visit a dentist as soon as possible to solve or prevent problems in the future.
