If you had teeth pulled as a kid to make room for braces and you wake up tired, grind your teeth, or snore, this is for you…
The people who quit because of the blood are the ones who never give it the chance to heal. If you see blood, it means KEEP FLOSSING! Don’t stop!

Lies we’ve been told about cavities: ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 1. Cavities are caused by sugar. Sugar feeds the bacteria, but the cavity only forms when your mouth stays acidic long enough to pull minerals out of enamel.
I can’t tell you how many patients used to come in for a regular teeth cleaning, and when I’d ask about nighttime urination, their eyes would go wide: “Wait...how did you know?!”
Just because it’s fruit doesn’t mean it won’t cause cavities. Dried fruit is often WORSE than candy because of how it sticks in the grooves of the molars like in this diagram. As a dentist who practiced for over 40+ years this is often the piece of advice I give that shocks parents the most.

TWO STATEMENTS BY TRUMP 7 MINUTES APART: Trump at 9:00: "Regime change was not our goal. We don't want that." Trump at 9:07: "Regime change is what we want. It is needed."
Massie’s bill exposed 2 dozen CEOs and world leaders in 6 months. He had 7 months left, so the GOP panicked, blasted voters with fake AI deepfakes to destroy his credibility, and shut him down. They are actively protecting the worst monsters on earth, and they just proved it.
