What are oral care products?

Oral care products are items specifically designed to maintain oral hygiene and the health of the teeth, gums and mouth. These products include toothpaste, mouthwashes, dental floss, toothbrushes, tooth-whitening agents and denture care products. 

What are the different types of oral care products?

Toothpaste and mouthwashes may help remove plaque, prevent cavities and freshen breath, while dental floss is used to clean between the teeth. Tooth-whitening products aim to lighten the colour of the teeth, and denture care products help maintain dentures. 

Oral care products often contain fluoride, antimicrobial agents, and abrasives to enhance their effectiveness. Regularly using these products and practising good oral hygiene is essential for maintaining oral health.

Do kids need oral care products?

Yes, kids need oral care products to maintain good dental hygiene and prevent oral health problems. Starting from a young age, children should use age-appropriate toothbrushes and fluoride toothpaste to clean their teeth and gums, helping to remove plaque and prevent cavities.

Flossing is also important when their teeth begin to touch, ensuring thorough cleaning between teeth. Regular use of these products and regular visits to the dentist help establish healthy oral care habits early on, contributing to a lifetime of good dental health.

Is there a difference between oral care and oral hygiene?

Yes, there is a difference between oral care and oral hygiene, though the terms are often used interchangeably. Oral hygiene specifically refers to the daily practices people use to keep their mouths clean and healthy, such as brushing teeth, flossing and using mouthwash. These practices aim to prevent dental issues like cavities, gum disease and bad breath.

On the other hand, oral care is a broader term encompassing not only personal oral hygiene practices but also professional dental treatments and products used to maintain and improve oral health. This includes regular dental check-ups, professional cleanings, fluoride treatments, and the use of specialised products like dental sealants or orthodontic devices.
