  4. Dental Myths vs. Facts

  5. Myth 1: Sugar is the primary cause of cavities. Fact: While sugar can contribute to tooth decay, it's not the only culprit. _______Cavities result from a combination of factors, including poor oral _______hygiene, bacteria in the mouth, and a diet high in sugars and _______carbohydrates. Myth 2: Brushing harder cleans teeth better. Fact: Brushing too hard can actually damage tooth enamel and irritate gums, ________leading to gum recession and sensitivity. It's best to use a soft-bristled ________toothbrush and gentle, circular motions to clean teeth effectively.

  6. Myth 3: You don't need to floss if you brush your teeth regularly. Fact: Brushing alone cannot reach the tight spaces between teeth and along the _______gumline where plaque and food particles accumulate. Flossing is essential _______for removing plaque from these areas and preventing cavities and gum _______disease. Myth 4: Whitening toothpaste can whiten teeth instantly. Fact: Whitening toothpaste may help remove surface stains and lighten teeth __________slightly over time with regular use, but it's not as effective as __________professional whitening treatments for significant whitening results.
