Step-by-step explanation:

Only healthy teeth does not ensure full good oral health. Oral hygiene as well as teeth shape and orientation is equally important for having a good oral health. Also we should make sure that our mouth is free from any diseases or plagues. So a regular oral check up with a dentist can make sure to maintain a good and hygienic oral health. It is generally advice able to see a dentist after every six months for a good oral health.
