Where Does Bad Breath Come From?


Old bits of food and bacteria on your tongue, gums, or in between your teeth are responsible for the way your breath smells. Brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing once a day helps remove bad breath. Did you know that if you don’t floss you miss 40% (that’s almost half) of your tooth surfaces!

Dental fun fact of the day

While sugar makes food taste great, it can cause serious tooth decay. Bacteria, or sometimes called “sugar bugs,” love sugar just as much as we do! These bugs feed on sugar and produce plaque and acid, which jeopardizes the integrity of tooth enamel.



There are typically 10-12 teaspoons of sugar in just one can of soda.
On average, 78% of Americans develop a cavity by age 17.
Between 60-90% of children will experience tooth decay.
While tooth enamel is the hardest substance in your body, bacteria can damage it.

In honor of international coffee day here are some tips to help you enjoy your favorite brew without destroying your smile.

Coffee is acidic and can weaken dental enamel and enable bacteria to pe*****te the tooth’s softer inner pulp. This can lead to decay, gum disease – even tooth loss. And if you like your coffee with sugar, you run an even higher risk of dental damage.

Rinse with Water

Rinsing your mouth with water after enjoying a cup of coffee will help neutralize the acid. You can also avoid stains and discoloration by being consistent with your at-home oral hygiene.

Don’t Brush Right After

Don’t brush your teeth right after having coffee! Your dental enamel is soft right after exposure to any acidic beverage, and brushing can cause damage. Wait an hour, then clean your teeth.

Get Professional Cleanings

Regular professional cleanings are, of course, essential to helping keep coffee from dimming your smile. And you can try natural tooth whiteners between cleanings, such as eating crunchy fruits and vegetables, too.

Avoid Lemon Juice & Charcoal

Despite what advice you may find online, acidic liquids such as citrus juice and abrasives like charcoal soften and damage tooth enamel. You might as well brush your teeth with coffee!

DIY Treatments

Do-it-yourself whitening treatments can harm previous dental work or result in unevenly colored teeth. You should absolutely check with your dentist before whitening your teeth if you have gum disease, fragile dental enamel, sensitive teeth, or specific medical conditions.

Dental fact of the day !

The First President Had Fake Teeth?


While most modern presidents have their own teeth, past presidents had to make due with teeth made from unusual materials. George Washington wore fake teeth made from elephant ivory, hippopotamus tusk, gold, and even other human teeth!

Some people even say that President Washington had teeth made of wood, but this seems to be a misunderstanding. Luckily, modern dentistry can fix missing teeth and discolored teeth without the need for using other people’s teeth.
