THE IMPORTANCE OF FLOSSING

Mira SAYS!

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished you had a whiter and brighter smile? Now, more then ever, it's a lot easier and affordable to do so! There is many different whitening products that can help you achieve that whiter, brighter smile that you always wanted. From in-office, take-home and the most affordable, Whitestrips. However, even after whitening, remember that the most important and effective way to keep your teeth white is by brushing twice a day and flossing.

Although flossing helps your teeth be whiter and brighter, it is essential in avoiding gum disease, tooth decay, tooth loss and studies have also shown that flossing can help prevent heart disease and strokes. Tooth decay is caused by plaque, a sticky substance that forms between your teeth,  that can not be seen while looking in the mirror. If the plaque is not removed by regular dental cleanings, brushing and flossing, combined with the sugars and starches in the food we eat, creates acid that attacks the tooth enamel. Brushing removes the plaque on the surface of your teeth, but flossing is essential to removing it from between your teeth, so between your regular dental visits, be sure to floss everyday to keep your teeth whiter, brighter and healthier.
