(Black PR Wire) March 6, 2023 is National Dentist's Day. Celebrated annually, National Dentist's Day is an opportunity to show appreciation for the dentists and dental specialists responsible for helping you keep those pearly whites healthy. Dentists play a vital role in keeping the mouth and the whole body healthy. Oral health is strongly connected to overall health, and this is because the mouth is the gateway to the rest of the body, and how you treat your teeth and gums can have lasting effects.

"National Dentist's Day is a way to show appreciation and at the same time a reminder to those that have avoided going to the dentist to come for a checkup," said Dr. Roger Phanord. "Nothing makes us happier than knowing that our patients are making their dental care a top priority and that we are helping them to keep those pearly whites healthy."

Having a dental checkup is important because it helps to keep the teeth and mouth healthy. A regular dental checkup helps detect cavities and early signs of diseases like diabetes, leukemia, and oral cancer before the patient can even notice any symptoms.

Here are some ways to celebrate National Dentist's Day: 

• Improve your oral health regimen.
• Commit to better dental habits.
• Schedule your dental checkup.
