🦷🪥 These actually matter more than you think!
• ⏰Time counts: Brushing for a full 2 minutes gives your toothbrush enough time to break up plaque—quick brushing leaves harmful bacteria behind.
• 🪥🦷Brush + floss: Your toothbrush only reaches about 60% of tooth surfaces. Flossing cleans the tight spaces in between where cavities and gum disease often start.
• 🩸Bleeding gums aren’t normal: Ongoing gum bleeding is a sign of inflammation and has been linked to higher risks of conditions like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and even Alzheimer’s—your mouth is connected to your whole body.
• 👅Don’t forget to clean your tongue: Tongue scraping helps remove bad bacteria that can lead to gum disease, cavities, and bad breath.
