🦷 Why Are Dental X-Rays So Important? 🦷

You might not always feel a problem in your mouth,but that doesn’t mean everything is fine. X-rays help us see what the eyes can’t.
🔍 Here’s what dental X-rays help us detect:
✔️ Cavities hidden between teeth or under fillings
✔️ Infections in the roots of teeth
✔️ Bone loss due to gum disease
✔️ Impacted teeth (like wisdom teeth)

🎯 Why it matters:
Catching problems early means less invasive treatments, lower costs, and a healthier smile for life!

🦷 Prevention starts with seeing clearly, and X-rays help us do just that.

🪥 How Long Should You Brush Your Teeth? Let’s Talk Timing! ⏱️

✅ The magic number: 2 minutes, twice a day.
It takes time to effectively remove plaque, prevent cavities, and keep your gums healthy.

But here’s the thing: Studies show the average person brushes for only 45 seconds. Yikes!😜

💡 Fun Fact: Brushing for less than 2 minutes can leave behind up to 40% of plaque!
🧠 Another cool tip? Try playing your favorite 2-minute song or using a timer to stay on track🎶.

Let’s keep those smiles bright and healthy!
