The millions of bacteria that make up Peter Plaquer can also cause tooth decay and gum disease. But don’t worry! Your trusty toothbrush and faithful floss are the most powerful weapons you have when fighting Peter Plaquer. Peter hates the way they erase his hard work at making your smile dim and your mouth less healthy. Make sure to brush and floss twice a day to keep Peter Plaquer at bay.

Medicine Hat Pediatric Dentistry’s second most wanted is Jim Gingi is a sneaky nemesis who can bounce around in the sugars left behind in a dirty mouth. Gingivitis, aka “Jim Gingi”, is a mild form of gum disease that weakens your teeth’s enamel, making it easier to damage your teeth and get cavities. Regular brushing, flossing, and visits to your favourite pediatric dentist in Medicine Hat are the best ways to combat Jim Ginigi’s plan to take over your teeth. Keep up the good work!

But you have the tools to seek out Cavity Carl and stop him in his tracks! With your faithful floss and minty mouthwash, you can flush out Cavity Carl and ruin his plans to hide in your teeth. Remember to do this twice a day to beat Cavity Carl at his game of Hide and Seek.
