In my late 40s and I’ve never had a dental hygienist compliment how clean my teeth were until now. It happened a few times at my cleaning yesterday.
I’ve never really had an oral issue. No major procedures to date.
The only change I made is swapping electric toothbrushes from Sonicare (which I’ve had multiple quality issues with) to Suri.
Otherwise I brush and floss twice a day and use a non alcoholic foaming mouth wash as well. So yay me!
The cleaning and polishing took maybe 10 minutes, wild.


Any rhyme or reason behind the non-alcoholic mouth wash?
It’s supposed to be better for us. Alcohol supposedly dries out our mouth which is bad for our gums. I like it better now that I’m used to it.
