🦷MYTH OR FACT?

“If my toothache stops, my tooth must be healthy again.”

❌ MYTH!

Tooth pain can sometimes settle even when the underlying problem remains. In some cases, the nerve inside a badly damaged tooth may stop responding, but the infection or damage may still be present.

Remember:
• Don't ignore recurring toothache.
• Seek dental advice if pain returns, or if you notice swelling or sensitivity.
• Facial swelling with difficulty breathing or swallowing needs emergency care.

Less pain doesn't always mean the problem is gone!

Do your gums bleed when you brush?

Bleeding gums are not something to ignore.

Possible causes include plaque buildup, gum inflammation and brushing too hard.

Here are 3 things to remember:

• Brush gently twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush.
• Clean between your teeth daily.
• If bleeding persists or keeps returning, arrange a dental assessment.

Healthy gums deserve attention, too!

🦷 Does your toothbrush reach between every tooth?

Not always! Toothbrush bristles may not adequately clean the tight spaces between teeth.

Here are 3 simple tips:

• Clean between your teeth daily using dental floss or an appropriately sized interdental cleaner.
• Be gentle around your gums.
• If you're unsure which cleaning aid is suitable, ask your dentist.

Good oral hygiene means caring for the spaces between your teeth, too!

👅 **Your oral hygiene routine isn't just about your teeth!**

Did you know that your tongue can collect bacteria and debris too?

Here are 3 simple tips:

• Gently clean your tongue once a day.
• Use a toothbrush or tongue cleaner without scraping too hard.
• Rinse your mouth and clean your oral-care tools after use.

Persistent bad breath or changes in your tongue that don't go away may need a dental assessment.

🦷 Small habits. Better oral hygiene.

🦷 Are you brushing your teeth correctly?

Brushing harder doesn't mean brushing better!

Remember these 4 simple tips:

🪥 Use a soft-bristled toothbrush.
⏱️ Brush for 2 minutes, twice a day.
🦷 Clean gently along the gumline and all tooth surfaces.
🫧 Spit out the toothpaste after brushing; avoid rinsing immediately with lots of water.

Small daily habits can make a real difference to your oral health.

🦷 Can a cracked tooth heal on its own?

Unlike a broken bone, a cracked tooth cannot repair itself.

Watch out for:

• Pain while biting or chewing
• Sensitivity to hot or cold foods
• Discomfort that comes and goes

Not every crack causes symptoms, and not every crack needs the same treatment.
If you suspect a cracked tooth, get it examined rather than waiting for the symptoms to worsen.

"Did you know brushing right after meals can actually damage your enamel?"

Acidic foods temporarily soften enamel. Wait 30 minutes or rinse with water first.

"Save this for your morning routine, and share it with someone who loves citrus or tea!"

Bleeding gums are not something you always need to “live with.”

They can be associated with plaque buildup, gum inflammation and other dental problems.

If the problem persists, getting the cause checked is better than simply ignoring it. 🦷
