Re: Pictures of Very Disgusting Teeth
The OP says "Brush. Floss. Daily. Nuff' said.", which isn't true. Dentists and toothpaste haven't been around forever. Neither has sugar, which is THE NUMBER ONE cause of tooth decay. When Europeans came to the New World, Australia, and New Zealand, they were always struck by how good the natives' teeth were, simply because sugar was not part of their regular diet. We've had generations of bad practices, like eating deserts last, that ensure the maximum damage done to our teeth. Seriously, who ever goes and brushes straight after desert? No one! Want to minimise the damage? Make sure it's something savoury you eat as the last thing, preferable cheese, as that counteracts the acidity and sticks in the tiny crevasses in your teeth until such time as you can brush properly. You'll never hear a dentist tell you this for a reason! |
