Before school, people usually wake up, take a shower, brush their teeth, eat breakfast, and go to school. But did you know that there are people who fail to brush their teeth? That’s right, some people wake up, take a shower, eat breakfast, and skip brushing their teeth altogether! How do they not feel insecure going to school?
I don’t know about you, but I can’t go to school without brushing my teeth. The feeling in my mouth would be torture, and I could not bare it.
First of all, if you do not brush your teeth, you will develop halitosis, or bad breathe, and plaque might envelope your teeth, weakening it. And even though you may not be able to smell your own bad breathe, those who can will have to suffer from the stench. Honestly, no one likes bad breathe. It’s disgusting, unclean and just wrong. And you will lose your teeth at an earlier age not brushing your teeth, than you would brushing them. Would you like to have no teeth by the time you’re 40? I didn’t think so.
Second of all, if you do not get in the simple habit of brushing your teeth daily, you may be susceptible of developing other bad habits; especially if you can’t handle a simple task like brushing your teeth, which you should be able to do.
Junior Jeremiah Gacusan said,” If you are incapable of basic self maintenance, chances are you won’t live a good lifestyle.”
On occasion, I encounter someone with horrid breathe, and I wonder, does this guy ever brush his teeth? It creeps me out whenever I meet someone like that, and I hate it. And people might also think differently about you if they found out that you did not brush your teeth before school! So don’t just do it for yourself, do it for your friends, and the rest of your classmates. By not brushing your teeth, you have nothing to gain, and all your teeth to lose.
