📉 𝗨𝗞 𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲

More than 11 million Brits are smiling less than they were three years ago — and the reasons say a lot about the country’s emotional well-being.
New research shows that less social contact, stressful news, and the cost-of-living crisis are major factors behind the drop. 😔

💬 What’s making people smile less?

* 45% are socialising less
* 37% feel drained by constant negative news
* 36% struggle with financial pressures
* 13% avoid smiling because they dislike their teeth

📍 Who smiles the most?

Northern Ireland tops the list with 11.41 smiles/day, while the east midlands ranks lowest at 9.41 smiles/day.
Women were found to smile five times more per day than men. 😊

😊 What still makes people smile?

Spending time with loved ones (47%), funny videos or shows (40%), and simply being smiled at by someone else (37%).
Experts say even a fake smile can lift your mood by activating “feel-good” pathways in the brain. ✨

This research was commissioned by Whites Beaconsfield.

The American Dental Association (ADA) has joined dozens of major health organizations in urging Congress to protect funding for the CDC’s Office on Smoking and Health (OSH) — the agency leading the fight against to***co addiction in the U.S. 🛑🚬

The coalition is asking lawmakers to adopt the Senate’s proposed $246.5 million funding level for 2026, warning that the House version would slash prevention resources and eliminate OSH funding entirely.

To***co use remains the #1 cause of preventable death in the U.S., killing nearly 500,000 Americans every year and costing the nation more than $600 billion.

OSH supports essential programs including:
✔️ State to***co control initiatives
✔️ National quitlines
✔️ The CDC’s “Tips From Former Smokers” campaign
✔️ Research and public health surveillance

Advocates warn that cutting these funds would gut state programs, reduce quitline services, and erase years of progress in to***co prevention.

🪥 𝗜𝘀 𝗕𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵? 🦷

For years, we’ve been told that brushing and flossing are enough to keep our teeth healthy — but new research says it might not be! 😬

Experts now agree that for many people, mechanical cleaning alone doesn’t fully prevent plaque, bleeding gums, or gum disease — especially when medical conditions, age, or limited mobility make brushing harder. 💡

That’s where antiseptic mouth rinses and medicated toothpaste come in. 🧴 Studies show that adding essential oils (EO), chlorhexidine (CHX), or cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) mouth rinses can reduce plaque, inflammation, and gum bleeding — going beyond what a toothbrush can reach! ✅

💧 Adjunctive oral care is especially helpful for people with:
– Persistent gum inflammation
– Dental restorations or implants
– Diabetes or low immunity
– Trouble brushing effectively

Experts emphasize using alcohol-free or fluoride-containing mouthwashes when needed — and remind us that mouth rinses don’t wash away fluoride from toothpaste. 🚫💦

In short: Brushing is essential, but not always enough. Adding the right antiseptic rinse can help protect your gums and keep your smile healthier for longer. 💙
