Скачать или смотреть Teeth and Dental Falacies

A dental fallacy is basically a mistaken belief about teeth, oral health, or dental care. A few common ones that cross people’s minds all the time:
“If my teeth don’t hurt, they’re fine.”
False. Many dental problems (like cavities or gum disease) are painless at first.
“Brushing harder makes teeth cleaner.”
Nope. It actually wears down enamel and hurts gums.
“Sugar is the only cause of cavities.”
Sugar plays a role, but it’s really the acid produced by bacteria—even starchy foods can contribute.
“Bleeding gums are normal.”
Not normal. That’s usually a sign of gum disease.
“White teeth mean healthy teeth.”
Teeth can look white and still have serious problems underneath.
So yes—these fallacies cross a lot of minds because dental issues are mostly invisible until they get serious.
