Stopping Unnecessary Snacking and Tooth Decay Simultaneously
What you see here is my nighttime dental care routine- floss, brush, and inter-dental pick. What I've noticed in the past month is that if I take care of my dental hygiene pretty immediately after dinner, I am a lot less likely to have a snack. Most of the time, I'm not really hungry before bedtime, but as I've said before, it's easy to get into routines and create habits, and snacking at night when I'm not hungry is one of my bad ones. Goal #10 is to brush my teeth after I eat dinner to prevent unnecessary snacking. Typically, I do not want to have to re-clean my teeth, and a snack rarely feels worth the effort of doing the whole dental routine twice. I expect this goal to be pretty easy to work into my life, and I hope that it will make enjoying snacks a more deliberate and intentional occurrence rather than a bad habit.
