5 Ways Poor Oral Hygiene Can Impact Your Life
                     5 Ways Poor 
Oral 
Hygiene Can 
Impact Your 
Life
01
Bad Breath
Poor oral hygiene can cause 
bad breath or halitosis. The 
bacteria in your mouth 
release volatile sulfur 
compounds that cause 
unpleasant odors. Brushing 
and flossing regularly can 
help prevent bad breath.
02
Gum Disease
Poor oral hygiene can lead to 
gum disease, a condition that 
affects the tissues that 
support your teeth. If left 
untreated, gum disease can 
lead to tooth loss. Gum 
disease has also been linked 
to other health problems 
such as heart disease and 
diabetes.
03
Tooth Decay
Poor oral hygiene can cause 
tooth decay, which is the 
destruction of the tooth 
enamel. This can lead to 
cavities, tooth sensitivity, 
and even tooth loss.
04
Stained Teeth
Poor oral hygiene can cause 
stains on your teeth. Stains 
can be caused by smoking, 
drinking coffee, tea, or red 
wine, or eating foods that 
contain a lot of pigment. 
Brushing and flossing 
regularly and avoiding 
staining foods and drinks can 
help prevent stains.
05
Low Self-
Esteem
Poor oral hygiene can 
negatively impact your self-
esteem. Bad breath, stained 
teeth, and missing or 
decayed teeth can make you 
feel self-conscious and 
embarrassed. Taking care of 
your oral hygiene can help 
you feel more confident and 
improve your overall quality 
of life.
