• The chances are you like to keep your mouth
  engaged in munching snacks, sweets, and sugary
  foods.
• Dont worry, thats not a big deal for your teeth
  and dental health.
• Sweet foods dont necessarily get your teeth into
  big trouble but your bad dental habits certainly
  do.
• While most people blame chocolates, candies and
  other sweet treats for their painful teeth, bad
  breath, sore gums, and bad oral health, obtaining
  a healthy mouth and a carefree smile is a matter
  of daily care and hygiene maintenance.

• Often passed around by individuals who are scared
  of dentists or have the fear of dentistry or
  receiving dental care, here are a few common
  dental care myths that may be killing your pearly
  whites by building a pool of misconceptions.
• Myth1 Whiter Teeth are the Healthiest
• Although a widely held misconception, pure white
  teeth may not necessarily be a sign of good oral
  health. Healthy teeth can be associated with a
  wide range of natural shades that may vary from
  person to person.

• Myth2 Too much Sugar can Harm Your Pearly
  Whites
• Sugar alone cant harm your teeth but with oral
  bacteria and acid that erodes your enamel, it can
  take a toll on dental health.
• Natural sugars contained in nutritious foods can
  be as damaging to your teeth as sugar-added soft
  drinks and sweet treats.
• Whats important is to brush and rinse after
  eating in order to prevent sugars to hide in
  between the teeth and produce harmful acids.

• Myth3 Brushing Bleeding Gums can Worsen Them
• After knowing that bleeding gums are an early
  sign of plaque that causes inflammation and gum
  disease, leaving your bleeding gums alone to heal
  over time would be the last thing you might want
  to do.
• While you might try not to brush too hard or
  brush at a certain angle in case you have
  sensitive gums, it is necessary that you do in
  order to remove plaque, bacteria and unwanted
  food particles.
