Oral hygiene in adolescence

Oral hygiene in adolescence is essential. This is one of the stages of life where there is an increased risk of dental problems. Since puberty, psychological, hormonal, etc. changes occur that lead to the appearance of cavities, periodontitis and/or trauma. Lifestyle, diet, lack of adequate oral hygiene measures, as well as the acquisition of some harmful habits such as tobacco and alcohol, make adolescent oral care a daunting task for parents.
