Abstract:

In present era dental disorders are more prevalent in general population due to lack of awareness, disinterest, and faulty life style. Habits like chewing tobacco ,consumption of fast food with high sugar and acidic contents, aerated drinks and liquor etc leads to accumulation of plaque, calculus and bacteria , further causing problems like halitosis, gingivitis, periodontitis etc. Some of these disorders are preventable. These issues can be targeted by regular dental checkups as disease can be screened and treated at an early stage. The maintenance of oral hygiene is very important not only for cosmetic purpose but also for good quality of life ahead. Shalakya Tantra has incorporated a number of curative therapeutic procedures like Nasya, Kavala, Gandusha, as well as preventive procedures in dincharya itself like-Danta pramarjana, Danta pavan, Jivha nirlekhana for preserving and enhancing oral hygiene thus increasing the longevity of all the structures of oral cavity and Rasanendriya.
