Tell the “Tooth” Tuesday 🦷

TRUE OR FALSE? You can get a cavity even if you don’t eat a lot of candy.

TRUE! Cavities aren't caused by sugar alone. Bacteria, acids, poor oral hygiene, dry mouth and other factors can all contribute to tooth decay. Regular dental exams and professional cleanings will help us catch potential problems before they become bigger ones.

🦷 Tell the "Tooth" Tuesday

TRUE or FALSE: Tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the human body.

✅ TRUE!

Your tooth enamel is even stronger than bone! It's designed to withstand years of biting and chewing, but that doesn't mean it's indestructible. Acidic foods and drinks, teeth grinding, and poor oral hygiene can gradually wear enamel away.

The good news? Regular dental cleanings and healthy brushing habits can help protect your enamel for years to come.

If it's been a while since your last checkup, now is a great time to give your smile the care it deserves. Call Dr. Anthony Cannilla's office today at (973) 882-1516 to schedule your next appointment! 🪥✨
