“Smile Romania” - toothpaste usage in Romania is the lowest in the European Union !!

Do you floss? Well flossing really helps me.

I have a friend from Romania & she has the funniest stories for us always! Yesterday she told us about  a study called “Smile Romania” which reveals that toothpaste usage in Romania is the lowest in the European Union !!!! So I assume flossing is out of the question.
According to the study,  Romanians living in rural areas  only change their toothbrushes once every 10 years. And that toothpaste usage was the lowest in the EU. A dentist was reported saying that most Romanians do not even use it once a day &  that 80 per cent of the population had some form of “dental disease”.
But is that even possible? What kind of study is that, I ask her- is she pulling my leg….lol… ? I examine her perfect set of teeth (which looks better than mine) hmmmm…… weird but it’s in the news !
Anyway, if you happen to be reading this, just pay a visit to your dentist & have your yearly cleaning done before it’s too late ok? And don't forget to floss!
