“People Walking Around With Smiles of Dead Men”


Back in the 19th century, when dentistry was in its infancy and the overconsumption of sugar was causing high levels of tooth decay, dentists found a creative but disgusting way to keep up with the demand for dentures: They used what are now called “Waterloo Teeth.”

After the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, looters, scavengers, and even surviving soldiers began pulling the teeth from dead soldiers left on the battlefield. They’d sort them into sets, and sell them to dentists who would boil them for sterilisation, cut off their roots, and shape them into dentures.

In the early 19th century, dentures made of human teeth were more popular than those made of other materials like porcelain and ivory. Human teeth were apparently considered more comfortable, more realistic, and easier to eat with. Thus, they were in high demand.

It's unclear, however, whether dental patients were aware that their dentures originated from the mouths of dead soldiers.

Thereafter, the market rocketed and soon enough, thousands of people were walking around with smiles of dead men! 💀

There is absolutely nothing to wake up in the morning and go straight to brush your teeth!

Physicians recommend brushing twice a day, which means that teeth should be brushed after breakfast and dinner, respectively.

Whenever you eat sugary food, there are lots of bacteria in the food plaque stuck in the teeth. And the acid produced by those bacteria directly attacks the enamel of your teeth. Whenever you brush your teeth, you remove the food that sticks to the teeth, that white sticky layer of plaque.

So, if you don't brush every day after dinner, bacteria get a longer time (8 hours) to damage your teeth. Then, if you don't brush your teeth after breakfast, they ruin your teeth again throughout the day.

Conversely, if you brush your teeth after breakfast, by lunch your face will be clean and germ-free. If you brush again after dinner, you don't even need to brush your teeth when you wake up in the morning. After lunch, we don't need to brush our teeth before dinner, we can tolerate that time.

At the same time, remember to wait 30-60 minutes after eating, then brush your teeth. Otherwise, the enamel of your teeth may be damaged.

Be aware of yourself and make everyone aware.
