I do recommend brushing your teeth haha, but I have heard this from a dental hygienist before, except the leading theory right now it has something to do with mouth bacteria.

I just have to point this out too.

And, these bacteria that cause tooth decay are spreadable. According to the science journal Microbiome , an otherwise innocent ten-second kiss can spread 80 million bacteria between mouths!

I believe this is the primary reason primates kiss, to share "good" bacteria. You know I still find it strange that no one here, in eastern canada anyway, french kisses each other. They all think its weird lol.

Its strange since in Appalachia people kiss each other much more passionately.

But yeah I take terrible care of my teeth. Even cracked a molar open and it was exposed for 3 years before I could get it fixed. Everyday I would have to pick food out but I managed to keep it somehow. That was before the parathyroid issues.

Nowadays all my teeth hurt, I imagine because my parathyroid hormone has been sky high for five years now :(. Dentist gives me shit about it and gets annoyed that I cant breath properly because of my swollen neck, or cant keep my mouth open because my muscles are weak.

Dumb shit.
