π¦· Oral Health
π Hello Friend
Today, I want to share my oral hygiene routine with you.
But what does oral hygiene have to do with a newsletter that covers coaching, health, and learning? Quite a lot, actually!

Studies show: Oral Health impacts Brain Health
A study from Neurology found that gum disease and tooth loss are linked to brain shrinkage in the hippocampus, which plays a role in memory and Alzheimer's disease. Additionally, an American Heart Association study based on data from 40,000 adults revealed that poor oral health is associated with a decline in brain health and a higher susceptibility to strokes and dementia.

My Oral Hygiene Routine
I do the steps of the routine in this order.
π¦ Water Flossing

Water flossing reaches areas where there is plaque buildup that toothbrushing and string flossing cannot reach.
