Lifestyle & Oral Health

Lifestyle is associated with ways of living which are the diffuse concepts that are used to denote the way people live. It reflects a whole range of social values, attitudes, activities, cultural, behavioural patterns and lifelong personal habits. All of which develops through the process of socialisation and social interactions from parents, peers, friends and siblings. It not only affects the general health but also has implication on oral health. Oral health is the window of a human body which reflects the general health. Oral health is one of the factors that contribute to a healthy lifestyle. This book briefs out the interaction of oral health and general health and also elaborates the impact of lifestyle on oral health.
