Some other tips besides brushing and flossing:
* Chew sugar-free gum. The xylitol makes your plaque less "sticky"
* Don't grind your teeth/sleep with a mouth guard
* Oil pull instead of mouthwash
* If you wake with dry mouth, sleep with your mouth taped shut with medical grade tape

This sounds like a TikTok challenge that allows Darwin to thin the herd.
I heard similar from my dentist. She told me that's extremely obvious the people who only drink bottled water since that became a fad. The fluoride in municipal water is doing exactly what it was supposed to do.
I go 4 times a year - insurance covers 2. Definitely worth paying the additional on my own.
Had first one I had done was a horrible experience. Went home after the temp crown was put on. That night was the worst pain ever. Jaw hurt and pounding pain. Went back the next day, denist took the temp crown off and proceed to get those little tiny round files out. Didn't even ask if I wanted any novacaine. SOB then stuck one of those files in one of the canal and I literally screamed it hurt so damn bad. He was chuckling about it as I am laying back in the chair waiting for the pain to subside.
He told me that he didn't get all the nerve out of one of the canals. I told him too bad he wasn't the one in the chair going through the pain I did. I was pissed off!!

It's hard to simply "don't grind your teeth" but the mouth guard when sleeping is a game changer if you do.
Imagine grabbing a small tree trunk and just pushing and pulling it back and forth. After a while, what is the ground around the trunk going to look like? The same happens to your jaw and gums when you grind your teeth. I have about half (fingers crossed) of my life left. But I'm sporting gums that were transplanted from a cadaver because I would grind my teeth all night. And that's a surgery and recovery that's no fun.
Dental infections are VERY serious.
Former NFL wide receiver Mike Williams died of brain infections stemming from dental problems, officials say
Medical examiners have released an official cause of death for former NFL wide receiver Mike Williams after there were conflicting reports of his passing in September.www.foxnews.com
Williams eventually died on Sept. 12 at the age of 36, and the Hillsborough County Medical Examiner Department said he succumbed to "Bacterial Sepsis with Cerebral Abscesses and Necrotizing Lobar Pneumonia due to multiple Dental Caries and retained tooth roots."
Essentially, his brain had pus growing around it after he had severe dental problems to the point where infections spread. Initial tests showed he had brain swelling and infections.
A lot of people dont realize but an abscessed tooth can kill you in a relatively short time. The infection can go to the brain pretty quickly.
People get themselves in serious trouble when they are somewhere without dental care and an infections sets it. (out to sea, remote camping, etc)
Dont ignore tooth issues peeps.
It's become one yes, stupidity to encourage nose breathing and deeper sleep. But dry mouth is really bad for your teeth. You don't need to cover the entire mouth either. Just an inch in the middle and enough so you don't sleep with your mouth agape. I use a CPAP, and have had horrible problems with dry mouth: cavities and thrush (think yeast infection of the mouth). Mouth tapping has been a game changer.
So apparently the dentist thing is the "official cause of death" according to the medical examiner, but the reason he was in the hospital in the first place was a jobsite injury. Apparently we worked construction since retiring from football. A pile of bricks fell on his head, sending him to the hospital where he died 5 days later. Locals on Twitter are saying they said cause of death was sepsis from dental infection to avoid a wrongful death lawsuit.

You either have the greatest dental insurance plan ever or you’re BSing us. I’m going with BS.
Plan covers only two visits per year, I cover the rest out of pocket. The only reason Dentists recommend twice a year is because that’s what insurance covers. That is BS. Six months is a long time.
For your consideration, here is a very smart doc, expert in dietary nitrate and nitric oxide, says
1) Avoid fluoride in water and in toothpaste
2) Never ever use mouthwash
3) Never use antacids, proton pump inhibitors, etc.
4) fertilized veg better than organic

So nitric oxide is the one weird trick that Big Pharma doesn't want us to know about?
