Everyone knows that they’re supposed to brush their teeth every day and visit their dentist at least once a year (if you didn’t know, now you do!). It’s also a general rule to floss your teeth once a day and fit in at least one round of mouth-washing before bedtime.
Besides preventing minor dental problems like cavities or the beginning of tooth decay, brushing and flossing your teeth can keep you healthy in a bunch of other ways. Your dentist is here to scare you straight when it comes to maintaining excellent dental health.
