Are You Really Taking Care of Your Teeth? Let’s Find Out
Hi again, it’s Dr. Julia 👋
Let’s get real — most people think brushing their teeth twice a day is enough. And while that’s a great start, there’s a lot more your mouth needs (and deserves).
You’d be surprised how many dental issues I see that start from tiny habits done wrong — like brushing too hard, skipping flossing, or ignoring that weird twinge of sensitivity.
So today, we’re listening to your mouth’s silent messages — and turning them into action.
🔍 Signs Your Mouth Is Sending You (And What They Mean)
-
Bleeding Gums? That’s your mouth begging you to floss.
-
Dry Mouth? Could be dehydration or even a medication side effect.
-
Yellowish Teeth? Stains build up from coffee, tea, wine, and more.
-
Bad Breath That Won’t Go Away? Might be poor brushing or gum issues.
-
Sensitive Teeth? Often a sign of enamel wear or receding gums.
👩‍⚕️ A Personal Note from Dr. JuliaOral hygiene isn’t about being perfect — it’s about consistency.
Even if you’ve had dental issues in the past, your future is still in your hands (and your toothbrush!). You don’t need fancy tools — just mindful habits and regular check-ups.If there’s one thing I wish everyone knew: Small changes lead to major results. Your mouth is always working — eating, speaking, smiling. Let’s take care of it like it takes care of you.
Until next time,
Dr. Julia
