我是一名英语播客主持人，我分享了我个人看牙医和矫正医生的经历，以及一些关于口腔健康的知识。我从小就注重口腔卫生，定期刷牙、使用牙线和漱口水。我第一次看牙医是在六岁的时候，那次经历让我印象深刻。牙医助理检查了我的牙齿，并进行了深度清洁，还给我做了氟化物处理。我的哥哥在同一次看牙经历中被诊断出有龋齿，需要补牙。我小时候因为牙齿不齐戴过牙套和颈托，这让我回忆起了一些难忘的经历。在节目中，我还分享了一些有趣的口腔健康知识，例如牙釉质是人体最坚硬的物质，但它容易受到酸的侵蚀；每个人的牙齿都像指纹一样独一无二；晨起口臭是因为唾液分泌减少，导致细菌滋生；牙套的历史可以追溯到古代；人体的口腔中存在超过700种细菌；婴儿出生时就拥有所有20颗乳牙，只是隐藏在牙龈下；平均每个人一生中会花大约38.5天刷牙；鲨鱼一生可以长出数千颗牙齿；电动牙刷比手动牙刷清洁效果更好；害怕看牙医是很常见的。我希望通过分享我的经历和知识，能够帮助听众更好地了解口腔健康，并养成良好的口腔卫生习惯。
