Neglecting the Teeth
It is easy for most people to take care of their bodies but neglect their teeth. The benefits of dental hygiene cannot be overemphasized. When you smile, your teeth are put on display. A large part of your teeth is also displayed when you talk. Unless you’re not going to be doing a lot of socializing, you should not neglect your dental hygiene. However, we cannot rule out the place of mental health and its impact on hygiene.
A Reddit user said that neglecting their teeth was a mistake they won’t repeat. Sadly, it was due to depression and other mental health challenges. The user shared how they used to care for their teeth until depression and PTSD set in. Thankfully, the comments showed that many people shared similar experiences and were working their way back to total health.
