And your gums. Actually floss. No one wants to but your 60 year old self will thank you.
Wearing braces for the first time at 60, because my teeth decided to start moving around enough to affect eating. And it’s just getting worse from here. I brushed: no cavities ever. I have good health/genes: one root canal is my only tooth issue. But I hated flossing and rarely did, and my dentists pointed out gum health over the decades, so here we are
Like I say at work: I’m here to share my knowledge and experience, not to be an Old Testament prophet. If you choose not to listen, it’s on you. And I keep minutes in case anyone asks “why didn’t you tell them?”

I’m guessing most people on Lemmy have already experienced this.

It’s still better to know than not know, though, right?
Right???
This is the way
Not to belittle your point cause people should actively take care of their teeth but
