Did you know astronauts have some of the cleanest pearly whites around? Not only is an astronaut expected to master a detailed understanding of space, gravity and aerodynamics, they also receive dental training to help them keep their smile healthy whilst journeying to the outer reaches of our galaxy.
So while astronauts over 225 million kilometres from earth are keeping their teeth healthy, it is not uncommon for some of us down here on earth to feel strapped for time when keeping our smiles clean. Despite this, a healthy smile is important no matter where you are. At TFI Dentistry in Thornlands and Labrador we are interested in healthy smiles both in outer space, and down here on earth.
