🪥 DENTAL MYTHS: BUSTED 💡🦷
Let’s clear up a few common misconceptions about your oral health:

❌ MYTH #1: Baby teeth don’t matter—they fall out anyway
✅ FACT: Baby teeth play a big role in your child’s development.
They help with:
• Proper chewing and nutrition
• Speech development
• Holding space for permanent teeth

❌ MYTH #2: Bleeding gums just mean you brushed too hard
✅ FACT: Bleeding gums are often a sign of inflammation or gum disease.

⚠️ It could mean:
• Plaque buildup
• Gingivitis
• Early periodontal issues

❌ MYTH #3: Mouthwash can replace brushing and flossing
✅ FACT: Mouthwash is helpful—but it’s not enough on its own.

💧 It can:
• Freshen breath
• Reduce bacteria

But it can’t remove plaque like:
🪥 Brushing
🧵 Flossing

✨ Small habits make a big difference in your smile.
