Flossing keeps your brain healthy!

Let us introduce you to our newest product: blue®m Dental Floss Tape. A refreshing mint flavored dental floss which you can include in your daily oral care routine. You probably already know that flossing your teeth is an important step when it comes to keeping your mouth as clean and healthy as possible. Because every dentist and dental hygienist points it out when you have your annual check-up. They refer to it as interdental cleaning. However, research has shown us links between flossing and a healthy brain. The results of this research were shocking, so of course we’d like to share it with you.

Let’s start at the beginning, shall we? Over 700 species of bacteria are found in our mouth, the gateway to the rest of our body. Research has shown us that all of these bacteria can result in huge dental problems when they are not removed correctly. Besides brushing your teeth at least twice a day with our toothpaste and using our mouthwash, we offer blue®m Dental Floss Tape as an addition to your daily oral care routine. Using our dental tape will keep your teeth als clean as possible and it will make sure that you remove plaque thoroughly.. also between your teeth!

Stave off dementia with flossing

Aside from dental problems, scientists also did research about the effect of flossing your teeth on your mental health. And we were shocked about the results of this research. Let us share this knowledge with you to keep your mouth and mental state in the best condition as possible. Let’s start with the first facts: flossing your teeth could help stave off dementia and protect you from cognitive decline. Crazy, right? Well, it basically prevents you from getting crazy, but you get the point.. The results of this research were mindblowing. Scientists found out that adults who have lost their teeth are 1.3 times more likely to develop dementia and 1.5 times more likely to develop cognitive impairment. Which can lead to struggling to remember things, make decisions and learn new skills. A healthy diet keeps your brain healthy. As you can imagine, missing some teeth makes it harder to eat healthy food. In addition to that, gum disease also has been linked to brain inflammation.

We told you.. it’s mind blowing! As you know, we believe that our oral health is the window to our overall health and therefore crucial for the quality and quantity of our lives. It’s an easy decision to floss daily, especially when you think about all of the illnesses that originate in your digestive system in combination with the research as described above.

Go for it, because life is a miracle!
