PHOTOS: This Hot Dental Hygienist Knows A Thing Or Two About Giving Great Oral (Exams, That Is)

nothing feels better than a good grille scrubbing! If you have anything else but a soft bristle toothbrush, DITCH IT. Always use SOFT bristle! If you’re feeling fuzz or a coat of plaque on your teeth, it’s time to go to town and scrub away. Also, don’t neglect your tongue, purchase a tongue scraper or manually scrub it with your toothbrush. The tongue is like carpet that traps bacteria, debris and dead cells causing bad breath. One breath test you can do is lick the back of you hand and smell it. YES I KNOW it’s ODD, but do it when no one is looking! You’ll be surprised what you smell… #homecare #brushing #flossing #oralhygiene #oralcare #oralhealth #freshbreath # #minty #healthymouth #healthyliving #stayfit #getfit #fitnessmotivation #sandiego #smilefordays #fitfam #fitness #bathroomselfie #takecareofyourbody #dontneglectyourmouth #fitness #photooftheday

Patient: I don’t floss because my gums bleed. Me: you’re bleeding because you don’t floss. Insufficient or the absence of flossing gives the bacteria, debris, and food particles the opportunity to get lodged or buried within the gums. When this occurs, the gum tissue becomes irritated causing inflammation, bleeding and sensitivity. More importantly, the harmful bacteria that doesn’t get removed within or above the gums destroy the surrounding and supporting structures that help your teeth stay in place. If you are bleeding, use that as a red flag and floss that area more frequently and thoroughly. In due time, the bleeding will disappear, unless gum disease has already set in. Seek a dental professional if this is the case. Happy flossing! Remember that plaque is LIVE BACTERIA. #oralhygiene #oralhealth #brushing #flossing #bleedinggums #gingivitis #periodontaldisease #srp #dentalhygienist #rdh #healthymouth #veins #pocketdepths #deeppockets #hygienelife

I found my old track spikes from 2004-2005 and ended leg day with my first passion, SPRINTING. Granite Hills High vs. Helix High 2002, I was a little itty bitty skinny minority freshman Filipino kid running the 100m against Helix’s BEASTLY sprinters including the legendary senior then, @reggiebush . I knew I had no chance… WE had no chance, no chance of winning in any event he competed in, and that was OK. Long story short, he MURDERED all of us, which was expected. Granite and Helix were the top track schools in the East County of San Diego then. I ran track all four years in Varsity and became the “anchor” (4th leg of the last 100m) for the 4×1 relay team my senior year. I ran the 100m @10.8sec. 200m @21.3sec, 4×1, the long jump, high jump and the triple jump. It felt great hugging the corner turns once again. Today was a good day. #anchorleg #4×1 #100m #200m #sprinting #trackandfield #stick #sprint #mizuno #trackspikes #underarmour #gshock #boostedshades #rubbertracks #blueturf #sprinter #sandiegofitness #igfitness #highschooltrackandfield #photooftheday #fitnessaddict #classof2005 #realmenweartights
