I was scheduled for dental procedures that caused concern and seemed very barbaric for this day and time. Scraping under my gumline and drilling holes between my teeth was nothing I wanted to happen. I began researching toothpastes and waterflossing machines. I found Wellnesse Hydroxyappetite toothpaste, did my research and purchased a tube of Whitening Mint. After using this toothpaste, my breath was outstanding, my teeth were brighter, no longer sensitive or my gums bleeding. I was also using the waterflosser due to my teeth being so close together. I returned for a check-up and my dentist was astonished at the condition of my overall oral health. She still wanted to scrape, but not as deep. I've requested she wait for an additional month and then we decide what the next step should be. I don't think the procedure will be necessary, fingers crossed. Thank you for informing the general public on better ways for oral care and overall health of our bodies. I'm a customer for life!
