Quick bathroom tip 👀

Flushing the toilet with the lid open can release tiny droplets into the air — sometimes called a toilet plume.

If your toothbrush is stored nearby, those droplets can land on surrounding surfaces.

Simple habit: close the lid before flushing and store your toothbrush upright so it can air dry. 🪥💙

Think it’s just sweets? 👀

Sticky carbs and frequent snacking can be just as problematic.

It’s about frequency — not just quantity 🦷💙

Mouthwash is helpful… but it doesn’t replace cleaning between your teeth 👀

Plaque needs physical removal.
That means floss or interdental brushes.

Think you’re brushing perfectly? 👀

Disclosing tablets highlight plaque so you can see exactly what you’re missing.

They’re brilliant for children — and surprisingly helpful for adults too.

Seeing is believing 💙

New research highlights something many of us already suspected 🧠🦷 — your oral health matters beyond your mouth.

Studies are finding links between gum disease and an increased risk of dementia later in life, possibly because chronic inflammation and harmful oral bacteria can affect overall health and the immune system. 

We can’t say brushing prevents dementia, but keeping your gums healthy with good brushing and interdental cleaning is one practical way to support lifelong wellbeing. 💙

Top Tip Tuesday 🪥✨💕

Yes — you might kiss someone — but sharing a toothbrush is very different.
A toothbrush transfers concentrated bacteria directly between mouths.

Brushing harder doesn’t mean cleaner teeth 👀

Scrubbing can damage enamel and irritate gums.
Instead:
✔️ Use gentle pressure
✔️ Angle towards the gumline
✔️ Clean — don’t scrub

Your gums will thank you 💙

Floss stuck between your teeth? 😬

🚫 Don’t yank it out
🧵 Unravel the floss
⬇️ Gently slide it down and out at the side of the tooth
