Curious, isn’t it? The idea that the only time you’re giving your skeleton a good scrub is when you’re brushing those pearly whites. Kinda blows your mind, right? Teeth: they’re such tiny heroes in the grand skeletal scheme but let’s give ‘em some cheers. Go, team teeth!
Now, picture this: you’re standing in front of the mirror. Toothpaste oozing onto your toothbrush (that bright minty greenish-blue). As those bristles swish against your teeth, you’re not just banishing morning breath or the aftereffects of that cheesy lasagna. No, no—you’re also performing the rare feat of actually cleaning part of your skeleton.
Alright, I admit it’s not like you’ve gotta dunk your bones into a bubble bath. However, the fact remains: dental hygiene is skeletal love at its finest. I wasn’t a floss fanatic for the longest time (oh, apologies to my stubborn past self). But once I learned how each flossing was a gentle nod to my skeleton… well, let’s just say, floss became my friend.
Next time, as you tangle with your toothbrush, remember: you’re having a soap opera with your very own skeletal structure. You’re brushing greatness! (And making your dentist—and your skeleton—proud). Curious that, indeed!
