Flossing stats you should know: A recent survey showed nearly half of adults skip flossing entirely, and many don’t brush for the full recommended two minutes.

At Goduco Smiles we encourage you to build the routine: brush twice a day + floss once a day. Ask at your next visit: “Am I brushing long enough?” We’ll time you and give feedback.

Let’s talk about tongue scraping… is it safe? Tongue scrapers are trending. But hold on: aggressive scraping might cause tiny tissue cuts, allowing bacteria into the bloodstream—especially risky if you have a heart condition.

At Goduco Smiles, we recommend gentle cleaning of the tongue with your toothbrush or a soft scraper and routine check-ups to catch issues early.

Tip: After brushing, gently swipe your tongue from back to front once or twice—no pressure.

Here’s a fascinating development: scientists found a way to use keratin (yes, from sheep’s wool!) to create a shell-like coating on teeth that mimics enamel.

While this kind of treatment isn’t yet in your dentist’s chair, the research shows how rapidly dental science is evolving. At Goduco Smiles, we stay current so you get the best care.

Tip: Meanwhile, protect your real enamel—limit acidic drinks, avoid grinding, use a soft toothbrush.

Your oral health isn’t just about teeth and gums—it plays into your body’s overall wellness. Research links periodontal (gum) disease with conditions like diabetes and cardiovascular issues.

At Goduco Smiles, we take a holistic view: healthy mouth → healthier you.

🔹 Have you been diagnosed with diabetes, or noticed bleeding gums? Let us know—we’ll adjust your care plan accordingly.

Flossing: the unsung hero of your smile! Did you know that flossing once a day can reduce gum-disease risk significantly? At Goduco Smiles, we’re all about supporting healthy habits that last a lifetime.
🔹 Tip: Choose waxed floss (or picks) if your teeth are close together.
🔹 Reminder: Set a nightly alarm for “floss time.”
