Soda...The Teeth Killer

Along with increasing your waistline, increasing the chance of heart disease and diabetes soda also does major damage to your teeth.  Diet can even be worse in some cases!

Just one little can has up to 12 teaspoons of sugar.  Just one sip causes the sugar to eat away at your teeth for up to 15 minutes!  And think of how long it takes you to drink a soda.  The sugar is happily muching away on your teeth for hours!  Think of that the next time you grab a soda! 

How long do you Brush your Teeth?

Probably not as long as you should. 

According to research the average American brushes their teeth for a total of 45-70 seconds.  When you should spend 2-3 minutes. 

Historical Floss

Did you know....The First Commerical Dental Floss was invented in 1882?

Bad Teeth Used to be a Rich Person's Problem

Only a couple of hundred years ago bad teeth were a sign of wealth.  Can you imagine?  But when you think about it only the rich could afford the sugary sweet treats that are common now a days. 

Elizabeth I, although known for her warming smile, was also known for her black teeth.
