🦷On Wednesdays, we talk about teeth💁‍♀️ Fluoride IS extremely important for both children and adults! Fluoride aids in repairing and preventing damage to your teeth caused by bacteria in the mouth. It replaces minerals lost from a tooth due to acid breakdown. Types of Fluoride include toothpaste, mouth rinses, varnish and supplements. FUN FACT: Reverse Osmosis(RO) removes all minerals from water. If your sole drinking water is from RO, be sure to incorporate other forms of fluoride into your diet!

Flossing does more than just keep your gums healthy. It can benefit your entire body!

Regular flossing reduces inflammation, lowers the risk of heart disease, and even helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

It also supports gut health by reducing harmful bacteria in your mouth.

Make flossing a daily habit for a healthier smile and a healthier you!

Remember, xylitol is toxic to dogs, so keep it out of their reach!
