Some fun facts to digest this Thanksgiving:

1. The phosphorus from turkey and vitamin D combine with calcium when we eat it to produce teeth and bones

2. Fiber rich fruits and veggies – like sweet potatoes and natural cranberries – act like detergent in our mouth to help keep our teeth clean

Have you wondered why the dentist takes x-rays?

Reasons we take x-rays:

1.  Examining areas prior to performing procedures.    
2. Looking for infections at the tip of the root.  
3. Checking for bone loss. 
4.  Inspecting for decay between teeth and under fillings. 
5. Reviewing changes during growth and in-between visits.

• NO CAVITIES? There is evidence to suggest that in prehistoric times, early humans didn’t really have cavities because they didn’t consume sugar!
• TONGUES ARE LIKE FINGERPRINTS - In addition to being one of the strongest muscles in the body, tongues have a unique “tongue print”.  Researchers are working on 3-D imaging machines to take tongue prints.
