A Trip to the Dentist

A new dental clinic opened near my house. It was newly renovated and looked so fancy. Coincidentally, I had a cavity, so I went for the first time and was assigned a handsome dentist. After the treatment was finished, I earnestly asked the dentist to check if there were any more cavities. The dentist said there weren't any, so I was scheduled for a follow-up next week. When I got home and brushed my teeth, I found another cavity, and I felt dissatisfied, thinking, 'Didn't the dentist say there weren't any? How could they miss such an obvious one?' When I went back for my appointment today, the dentist explained that it was a color difference from the previous cavity treatment and filling, and it was staining from drinking coffee, tea, and eating dark-colored foods, with residue left from not brushing properly. I asked the dentist in confusion, 'But I brush really hard!' Turns out, brushing too hard can cause enamel loss, so they told me to brush gently. Suddenly, I don't know how to brush my teeth anymore! 🥹🥹🥹

Brushing too hard can indeed be counterproductive and might damage your enamel. It's recommended to use a gentle, circular motion and floss regularly. Luckily, the dentist reminded me during my last check-up, so I can adjust my brushing technique to protect my dental health going forward.
