Yo! Men! Did you know that one of the most common factors associated with infrequent dental checkups is simply being male? Here are some reasons why you need to come in and see us regularly. (1) Early detection of oral cancer is greatly increased with regular appointments. Men are twice as likely as women to contract oral cancer. (2) If you ride a bike, play hockey or basketball, or even soccer, you need a custom-fitted mouthguard to protect your teeth and help prevent concussions, jaw fractures, and neck injuries. (3) Your breath will improve. Over 90 million North Americans exhale bad breath. The most common cause? Poor oral hygiene… The average man brushes his teeth only 1.9 times per day.
