Nearly half of Americans don’t brush their teeth enough. This opens the door for a bacteria invasion, leading to tooth decay and gum disease. Even worse, you might increase your risk for issues like kidney disease and dementia. The following is a transcript of the video.
Meet Streptococcus mutans. He’s a bacterium and…a bit of a slob. But this isn’t just any mess. It’s what’s on your teeth! You see, “Strep” and all his roommates live inside your mouth, feeding off the sugar and protein in your food. When they’re done they excrete a slimy substance ALL OVER your pearly whites.
The end result is a bacteria-ridden pigsty, called biofilm. Now a little biofilm isn’t going to hurt you. It’s only when you stop brushing it away that things can get ugly. And not only for your teeth. It just so happens that “Strep” and his friends are a downright threat to your life.
Nearly half of Americans don’t brush their teeth enough. And when food builds up in those nooks and crannies, you’re inviting a host of bacteria to the party - including your gum line. The perfect place for bacteria to camp out in even greater numbers! Which irritate and inflame your gums, causing tenderness and bleeding.
But that’s just the start! Soon enough, that infection will trigger your immune system. Which sends fighter cells to battle the bacteria. This creates a hostile environment for the bacteria, which is what you want. But it can also damage the cells in nearby tissue and bone.
6 months to years later, that tissue and bone will eventually die. At this point, you don’t have gingivitis anymore. You have something much worse: periodontal disease. No more tissue and bone means no structural support. So, your gums separate from your teeth forming pockets that quickly become extra space for “Strep” and his friends. Which further infects your gums, causing your teeth to fall out.
Now, you may think this could never happen to you but about 10% of Americans between ages 50-64 have lost not just one or two, but ALL of their teeth! And to make matters worse, “Strep” and his buddies may enter your bloodstream, where they’ll wreak havoc on your organs, too.
For example, in one study, people with periodontal disease were 4.5 times more likely to have chronic kidney disease than people with healthy gums. And another study found that people in a retirement community who didn’t brush their teeth daily, had up to a 65% greater risk of dementia. Last but not least, there’s the increased risk of developing certain cancers:
To be fair, these risks can also be the result of poor hygiene in general, but the message remains clear: Brush. Your. Teeth. It’s worth the extra 4 minutes a day.

I have bad depression and its hard for me to do basic things such as take care of my teeth, this is motivational and informative and i thank you for helping me along the path of bettering myself.
Ay man good luck, stick with it once you start doing it consistently it’s almost like therapy for your mental health. Once I started taking my health more seriously my mental health improved a lot.
Same here bro :/
I hear you. I stopped brushing for awhile due to Depression and my teeth got all fucked. Good luck
Not to sound rude but you can't brush your own teeth because your depressed?? 🤨🤨
@@camerondoll3876 u clearly don’t know how depression works there’s many factors that depressed people don’t do like showers , eating , brushing etc
I used to lie about brushing my teeth most of the days but now I will never do that ever again and actually after watching this video I brushed my teeth and then left this comment. Thank you for telling me how important brushing my teeth is.
The next 😂😂😂😂😂
my sister used to do that and 15 years later… doesnt end well.

Underrated because people dont get it.. sad

OHHH I GET IT
Yeah true
Most people are cheapskates who use inferior crap, so it doesn't matter
When I was a child I truly didn't care about brushing my teeth. I had cavities and pain, but eventually those teeth fell out as they should. That's when I started to care for my teeth. A fresh start.
I am now 25, and even though I have a near perfect dental hygiene (I am aware of what I eat and drink, brush 2 times a day and floss, the only thing I sometimes skip is dental elixir), I have early stage periodontal desease and had to treat two small cavities (the first ever since loosing my baby teeth and without going to the dentist for nearly 3 years due to Covid). Me and my dentist found out that my medication for endometriosis leaves me more vulnerable to periodontal desease and the stress I endured during the last two years only worsened it. Sometimes it's not only the lack of hygiene that will damage your teeth and gums, there are other factors. So always take a closer look at all the variables.
Im 24, and I have moderate periodontitis and have 7 fillings done, and I still have my teeth. I wish I hadn't been so lazy in the past about my teeth. However, Im glad it isn't worse now that I have gotten it under control.
Chewing xylital gum is supposed to be beneficial for teeth. Just make sure to keep it away from pets. It's really toxic for dogs (not sure about cats).
Who suddenly want to brush
YES I KNOW MY SEVEN ANGEL
Uhh I feel like brushing my teeth now
OH NO🏃
Me too

Yo why tf Strep and his Crew gotta do us dirty like that? Smh 🤷🏼♂️

Guys. Strep never went to school in his life. His a bacterium.
He does not know he is hurting you.

I remember years ago I brushed my teeth, didn't like it, never did it again and now I don't have any teeth to worry about...... all well that ends well.

Leopard Girl Boss Sorry I’m calling bullshit out on this one, not brushing for *four years?* And not a single cavity? Sorry but that isn’t possible.
@@LumosVeil well she did brush them it says hardly
@@LumosVeil I've only brushed my teeth a few times in the past 4 years and not one cavity. Definitely wouldn't suggest it though as I'm learning about it and now I'm horrified
Good video! I show this to my little patients because it is easier for them to understand. Thank you!
Are you a dentist and are actually saying this is true? If yes. You should be ashamed.
So much of this is over exagerated fair porn or complete bullshit and a dentist would know this surely.
whats wrong with showing child patients a video that will get the message through to them in a better way?@@nondescript2134
Brushing too much can also damage your gums wich are more important then teeth! Teeth can be replaced but your gums cant
Wtf? Are you joking?
@@squurdixplays8137 If gums get damage you lose your teeth. Gums are what is holding your teeth so yes
I went to go brush my teeth after this 😂💯
Me to right now lol
But my gums still bleed
Pffft not me
im a sad bean
Same here
I didn't hardly brush throughout my entire childhood up into my teens.
I would brush maybe once or twice a week.
That resulted in about 23 of my 29 teeth to develop cavities and become extremely weak.
It's my greatest regret in life at this point.
@ghost mall it would smell like fish
Funny thing, I hardly ever brushed my teeth as a kid. Only about once a month. I never had any cavities in my baby teeth. When I became a teen, I made sure I brushed my teeth much more often so I don't get cavities. I still don't brush as much as I should, only about once a day, usually. getting cavities in your baby teeth is not as bad as getting them in your adult teeth, Unless that cavity spread to your adult teeth.
Just because i didn't get cavities yet, doesn't mean I won't. I am lucky to have naturally straight teeth and to keep my wisdom teeth. I don't want to give that up.
I tended to brush three or four times a week. Sometimes I skipped due to feeling tired or because I just didn't want to brush them.
@@janusgreenway5137 When I was a kid, I would not brush for as long as a month. When I was a teen, I would go days, sometimes a week or two without brushing.
never got a cavity yet. I am brushing daily now, tho.
@@FloridaMan69. i literally do the same but my breath doesnt affect
I think I'm going through something mentally but I haven't brushed my teeth in a week but this is giving me new motivation
Are you depressed?
@@stanbily9416 probably
Yeah brother that’s def a sign of depression… I was the exact same way, except I’d brush maybe 3-5 times in a month. Went to the dentist for the first time in years the other day. There, the pain from all the cleaning done to my gums made me lock in and I’m forcing myself to brush my teeth and hydrate and all that. Been almost a week, hoping I don’t fall into that hole again. There’s a certain joy that comes from it too, cause it helped motivate me to buy better clothes, working shoes, and practice proper shaving and showering habits. Hoping whatever you got going on improves.
I sometimes skip when I'm feeling crappy. Having toothbrushes and toothpaste by my sink and inside my shower seem to help me. I also keep mouthwash( top loose)by sink so if I get up to use the restroom it's an easy thing to do. Anything that cuts down on the effort of the task helps me improve the habit.
using this to motivate me to get over depression and actually brush my teeth
yea… idc
Thank you for this! This motivated me to get out of my bed and brush my teeth.
Just Another Commenter me too

"At this point, you dont genga virus anymore." Me: thank go- "there's something much worse."
As a dental assistant, I think this video is a perfect educational tool that is needed. Thank you, Science Insider.
Edit: Most cavities start between the teeth. Floss first to clear out the bacteria and food from between the teeth. Then brush to remove everything.
If you brush first, then floss, you're just depositing the stuff between the teeth onto the area you just brushed.
Also, the term "brush & floss" was coined for advertising because it sounded better than "floss & brush".
So the correct way to clean your teeth is
Flossing > bussing > mouth wash?
@@tasrin9877 Yes, clean between the teeth first, brush and rinse. Then non-alcoholic mouthwash.
Wow. Good to know the order, thanks for sharing!
@@shimmypolkaroo What happens if we used mouthwash (Crest) that contained alcohol in description behind the bottle?
@@kavigorana Use them last, after flossing & brushing. Also use one without or lower alcohol content as it tends to make the soft tissues dry out and causes that feeling where your mouth feels parched. Also, don't use it more often than what's recommended on bottle, it can lead to sores because the antibacterial agent can be to hard on the soft tissues.
Thanks for this. My little 14 years old brother didn’t brush his for a week. I showed this to him and he went upstairs and brushed without even being asked
It’s meow meow

A week I went 5-6 years believe it or not my teeth are still good

For 3 years i stopped brushing my teeth when i was about 10. I thought nothing would happen since i never had dental problems till then. Well, it changed and now i have 4 cavities. Thank god it isnt more. Now I'm brushing my teeth touroughly 3 times a day to prevent my teeth form decomposing. Now they are fine but i wish i had never been such an idiot when i was 10.
Who went to brush again
Abduley YT me
Abduley YT me but if you brush for a year after not brushing your teeth will it make everything go back the way they were
I have Autism which means i forget to do simple things at times like brush my teeth the longest i have gone is a week.
It's weird though my teeth are perfect dentist always says im doing a great job and my breathe never stinks.
I'm pretty lucky i guess

in the past i was drinking 1.25l of coca cola a day now i hardly have 30g a day.
Dentist said the PH levels in my mouth were just right and thats why i don't have such a big issue with it when i asked him :o
I now know why we're not extinct yet
Haven't drank soda in years.
It takes a bit longer for there to be damage.
This really makes me feel like I should go to the dentist and get a checkup on my teeth

Now I'm glad that my parents forced me to brush as a kid
Yeah and you don’t have yellow teeth
Lucky you
Lucky you. My parents forced me to brush my teeth but i didnt want to so heres me now, a girl with a bad yellow teeth losing confidence
i just brush so people can't say my teeth are looking ugly ...... lol

I brush after every meal
and before every meal
@@sunnysunflower383 I heard that's bad, I heard you're best at twice a day
@@masonfrank931 oh, thanks, i just have bad anxiety because my aunt died from gum cancer
@@sunnysunflower383 I understand bro, you have this layer over your teeth, what it does is to keep your teeth white and if you wipe it off from brushing too hard or over brushing (like 5 times a day) then your teeth will get bad. If you brush for under a minute I guess you should be fine (that's just a guess) but try twice a day for 2 minutes, set a timer on your phone; it will help alot. It could be 3 times, I forgot. I brush once a day though lol. I try to brush twice a day but I always forget

AleXizzed Most british ppl have great teeth, and are crazy about keeping them great. If you are going to say your teeth are like a graveyard, you don’t have have to mention British as well.

@@ayishaks6510 Not a British person myself, I wonder where this stereotype came from.
@@kazumy2558 It comes from America. Americans spend a lot of money keeping their teeth white and straight, dentists are much more common in America compared to Britain, so the British do actually have worse teeth, but it's not natural to have perfect teeth. Just a result of an American obsession.

I just got my $6000 braces off a couple weeks ago (I’m 22 and I never wanted anything more than I wanted to get braces) and there’s no way I would throw that away by being lazy! I’ve become a tooth care fiend because I worked so hard for my smile (and took really good care of my teeth when my braces were on too) and I’m proud of it. People who don’t take care of their teeth either didn’t have to pay for braces themselves or just overall don’t care how they look. I would never be able to get braces again due to the expense so I’m very proactive about making them worth my money!
This helped me encourage my son to brush his teeth.

I never took care of my teeth. I might have brushed once in the morning but as I got older I rarely brushed. I think went over a year without brushing. My gums hurt and bled really bad. I had to get a few extractions and the last one I had the dentist said I had serious peridontal disease. I began brushing, flossing and mouthwash after every meal and started eating a lot more fruits and vegetables especially leafy greens and my gums no longer hurt and no longer bleed anymore. peridontal disease can't be cured but I have slowed it down tremendously
I used to never brush my teeth but ever since that one dentist checkup. It started to change. It turned out that I had holes in my teeth and that I'd need a filling. That filling didn't last long though since my tooth started to ache and I repeatedly went back to the dentist to relieve this pain They did many fillings and I took tons of medicine but one time they did a root canal and that helped alongside a filling as well. I started to drink plenty of water and eat less sugary food now.
What if you don’t have teeth?
You brush your gums ahaahahhahah
Cody NvidiaGeforce and brush your tongue too, more importantly.
Tongue contains the bulk of these bacteria. Only 25% are in the teeth actually so its more important to brush it.
Ha keep
Thanks for the information 💕
I (almost) never brushed my teeth since I'm a kid. I'm 16 now and only started doing it, fortunately I have VERY good teeth cuz I almost never had any dental problems. Well now I gotta wear braces cause my teeth and my mouth are too small, if I brushed my teeth everyday from 0 to 16 years old I'm sure that I wouldn't have that problem 😔
Unfortunately I wasn't educated to it, my parents would never remind me to brush my teeth when I was a kid. Thought they learned from their errors and teaches my little brother to have a good teeth hygiene :)
I didn't brush as often as I should, and I have stage 2 gum disease and had 7 fillings done as an adult. Which ultimately put me $5000 in debt. I didn't fully start worrying about my teeth until I turned 23, I am 24 now. 1 year after I visited the dentist, my teeth were whiter and healthier than I had ever seen them, and I prevented losing my teeth at an early age in my life. Im told I could still have all my teeth if I maintain good oral hygiene and continuous dental visits.
When I was really young, I didn’t brush my teeth for months but I brush almost three times a day so I’m extra clean from that mistake of being lazy lol
shit, i haven't brush my teeth for 8 years
Lol fuckin same
oml please go brush

Who needs school when you have a place that answers your questions instantly and clearly.
I almost never brushed my teeth for 5 years, my enamel is wearing down and becoming transparent. Don't have gingivitis, have some cavities, but not as much. Now I'm obsessed with dental health, I brush like 1.5 hours after I eat anything, I drink through straws, after I eat I aggressively wash my mouth with water, I use fluoride and antiseptic mouthwash before brushing, I keep toothpaste in my mouth after brushing for minutes, and I only eat 50 minutes after brushing.
Me:Eats booger

I don’t actually do that tho
If only that was true.
Bro, i eAt my boogers nothing wrong with that
why is teeth the *IMPORTANT* part of our body j mean I agree but yeah I'm brushing my teeth now
This is a great toothpaste ad
honestly
I adopter a cat at 3 years of age which is when every professional or article to read says the animal will have health problems like illnesses, conditions and a lessened life span for your pet. Well her teeth were checked and cleaned the weekly advised amount before we got her but we clean them before bed with the rest of her nightly rituals but despite this, she already has gingivitis and many teeth needing to come out (health issues caught in time to slow) and she gets many dental treats and toys to help which our dog has followed in dog form for her three years of life and has no issues but clean teeth without any smelliness so that just showed me how fragile human teeth must be, with nowhere near the strength or type they both have that can stop through rough ‘n’ though toys in less than 30 seconds yet have issues with one brush a week.
Cat now has her electric silent brush, toothpaste, gumb&numb paste, teeth spray, etc. But she is too far gone, a cat that only thinks about food, never would stop eating over to poop or be sick and begins once more now struggling to eat, bad breath, bleeding gums still (but lessened hugely since the start of her personal mouth care began) and it makes me feel bad for any time I didn't clean my teeth when the cat didn't have the option to keep her teeth for longer than and be without pain throughout her body (thankfully not life-threatening before we could start helping) 3 years.
I like streps voice, sounds like a cool guy, not gonna brush my teeth again, I want him to feel comfortable
My parents never taught me to brush my teeth as a kid so I didnt. Between age 8-16 i probably only brushed them a few times and never went to the dentist. I had like 20 cavities that i had to fill, and my teeth are kinda crooked now, but I'm lucky nothing this bad happened
*Who's brushing at the moment after watching this?*
me
Me
meh
Not me
Yup just done
I'm just glad I listened to my father and dentist long ago.
Thank you for this. I have braces and it's helped me since i have braces I started brushing my teeth 3 times a day.
