  • There are more bacteria in your mouth than people on earth.
  • In an entire human lifetime, the average person produces around 100,000 gallons of saliva.
  • A sneeze zooms out of your mouth at over 600 mph!
  • Did you know that Gatorade contains as many as 16 teaspoons of sugar in every sports bottle? That is enough to fill a plastic snack bag! This liquid sugar penetrates the sides of teeth and can be a big contributor to dental decay especially in teenagers.
  • Worn toothbrushes do not do a good job of cleaning your teeth. Brushes should be replaced every 2-3 months for children because they wear their brushes out sooner.
  • If flossing properly, the average person should use 122 yards of floss per year. Twenty-eight percent of people claim to floss daily, but annual sales data shows only an average of 18 yards of floss are sold per person. We think someone’s fibbing
