dentist said my teeth were really clean, how is that possible?!


Question: Dentist said my teeth were really clean, how is that possible?
so i was at the dentist today for my scale and polish. well when he checked my teeth he said they looked really clean (hardly any plaque on them) and my gums were a nice healthy colour. now i have to say i was a bit suprised as sometimes i can be a bit lazy about brushing my teeth and i may only brush them once a day. so how can they be so clean if i only do that

It could be you have a really good brand of toothpaste or just a thorough brushing technique.

Well, some people simply have better teeth and gums than others. Anyway, it's a good idea to brush your teeth after every meal but if you brush your teeth only before you go to bed and brush them properly (a properly used electric brush is easier and better) I think you'll be just fine unless you have bad genetics.

It's weird but some of the people I know who have really good teeth don't have the best hygiene like they don't brush often,floss, our mouthwash much. I don't get it either. Maybe its just your young and healthy, don't eat to much sugary stuff and don't smoke so things are fine on their own.

just luck I guess
