The most important part of our body, which we flash every now and then, is the most ignored by most people - teeth. We should take proper care of our teeth and if there is a problem, instead of removing the teeth, we should look for other options.

SOME OF us do not give much importance to maintaining long life-lasting teeth. Today, it is widely acknowledged that teeth is the most important part of the human body, which not only helps in personality building but also, significantly, adds to the feeling of the warmth and spreading of positive energy through generation of flashy smiles.

Irrespective of caste, colour or creed, many stars, celebrities, intellectuals; people who all command huge respect, dignity, fame in the society and make big money - the most natural thing for them is to smile. To have a good smile, everyone should take care of God’s gifted teeth.

Extraction of teeth should be the last resort. However, either due to laziness or some unwanted fear, some of us go for the easy way - of extracting teeth if it is causing problems. Food properly chewed, helps the digestive system for a healthy human body and if there are more than one missing teeth due to extraction, chewing of food becomes an issue.

In all the developed countries, dentists are much sought after. In health insurance, dental insurance is very popular and commands a premium. Thanks to innovation in dental technologies, today there are plenty of options available for people wanting to save their decayed teeth from extraction. All they need is patience, more than two sittings with the dental physician, and a few days of precautions while eating - once the decayed teeth is restored - that’s it.

They can then look forward to enjoying a better life after having saved their teeth. In advanced countries, many people who are living beyond 80 or 90 years have taken ample measures to ensure that their teeth is best preserved, which is helping them enormously in leading a healthy lifestyle, and it is a delight to watch when they flash a smile showing off their sparkling teeth to the full.

Going by the above, it is hoped all those who are having teeth problems or anticipating teeth problems can do well to chalk out a nice programme as to how to preserve it, instead of going for the easy option of extracting it! We must all remember the adage, which goes: If you take care of the teeth, teeth will take care of you!
