Tooth and Mouth Care
Americans brush their teeth every morning and night, sometimes after every meal, using a toothbrush and toothpaste. Many Americans also use dental floss, a special string that removes food particles from between the teeth. Mouthwashes, sprays and breath mints are also used to freshen the breath. If you like to eat a lot of spicy foods, especially onions and garlic, or if you drink alcohol, be extra watchful that you don't offend Americans by having "bad breath."
