Dear patient,
The 10th annual Dental Hygiene Month puts focus on breath concerns.
This year the Dental Hygiene Month’s social media campaign focuses on bad breath and the prevention of any problems related to it. Bad breath may be caused by an incorrect teeth cleaning technique or stem from various health problems and stress.

Lauri Vahtra: it is easier to prevent than treat
The head doctor of Kliinik 32 Dr. Vahtra emphasises in his opinion article that as a country we will never be able to afford treating all diseases, including dental problems, with public funds. The most efficient way to avoid consequences is thoughtful prevention and consistent awareness raising.
In his opinion, the dental health benefit for adults that is in force today is unjust. It punishes patients by forcing them to give up their dentist to get discounts if the latter does not have a contract that provides for reference prices established by the Estonian Health Insurance Fund. However, Dr. Vahtra says that dental service is very personal and intimate. It is not a general commodity that is available at every store and equally measurable.
Patients should maintain the freedom to choose their own dentist and the state should provide more resources for prevention.
