When Your Toothbrush Isn’t Handy, Reach For Scrubber Foods!
WE’VE ALL BEEN IN SITUATIONS WHERE we’ve wished we had a toothbrush—but didn’t. Perhaps it was on a recent camping trip. Perhaps it was right after lunch, on a day when you were headed into an important business meeting. Regardless of when it was, you knew that a fresh, sparkling smile would bring the comfort and/or confidence you needed.
Certain types of foods can help you in a pinch.
Introducing Nature’s Tooth Scrubbers
Scrubber foods naturally clean your teeth–not perfectly, but enough to help you smile with confidence. As you chew scrubber foods they remove plaque and leftover particles from other foods you’ve eaten. They also increase saliva flow, which helps clean your mouth as well.
Most Scrubbers Are Crisp, Firm, And High In Fiber
Here are a few common scrubber foods:
- Apples
- Celery
- Radishes
- Carrots
- Broccoli
- Cucumbers
All of these foods are excellent at freshening your mouth. Use them at the end of a meal or after a snack. Remember that these foods cannot be used as a replacement for brushing and flossing. But, they can be little helpers until you get to your toothbrush.

I’ve never seen anyone who is more respected by their staff. The entire staff only had great things to say about working there, and it made me want to return all the more. I couldn’t believe how great their office looked. It was very obvious that they took pride in the office’s appearance. It was one of the best looking offices I’ve ever seen. They really go above and beyond to make me feel special. I’ve never been anywhere that seems to care more about their clients than here. Not only was I able to watch TV during my dental procedure, they had a ton of magazines for me to look through as well. I barely even noticed that my dental procedure was going on because I was fully entertained the entire time. They were by far one of the best I’ve ever seen in their field. It was obvious that they’ve been exceeding their clients’ expectations for many years.
