You are no stranger to the fact that you should brush your teeth every day. It hasn’t escaped you either that you should really brush twice a day (of course, in addition to flossing but that’s another story!). However, our Auburn Hills, MI team knows that some of you out there might not be brushing as frequently and thoroughly as we recommend! So, before we launch into any particularly clinical details about plaque, the bacteria it contains, and the potential breakdown of the carbs you eat and the potential for dental tissue decay, we say: Hey, there, we have some very simple reasons you should be brushing as part of your dental hygiene and they will most definitely resonate with you!
Or Else, Your Breath Will Stink
In life, there are many cases in which there’s a simple equation. The sort that goes something like, “If you do this…then this will happen.” When we’re discussing brushing as part of your dental hygiene, remember that if you don’t brush, you will develop bad breath. Remember, of course, that this isn’t just because you’re not removing smelly foods from your smile. We remind you that instead, it’s because you’ll allow serious problems to develop that will yield what we call halitosis, or chronic bad breath! You don’t want your mouth to stink! So…brush!
Or Else, You’ll Get Cavities
Again, in terms of cause and effect relationships, there’s a pretty strong one when it comes to not brushing and ending up with cavities. If you want to stay in the cavity free club, brush those teeth!
Or Else, Your Smile Will Look And Feel Bad
Just think about the foods and beverages you consume every day. Now, think about what your smile feels like at the end of the day with the residue from foods and drinks and plaque sticking to your teeth. Now, envision what your smile looks like after you drink something staining (like fruit punch) and when you get food stuck between teeth. It feels grimy and strange and definitely not clean. It looks like it’s been through quite a day and is anything but the pristine, glimmering, white feature you’d love to display. So, here’s the reminder for your smile health: Brush your teeth twice daily as part of dental hygiene to avoid a smile that feels and looks bad. Brush to prevent staining and additional problems.
