Research indicates that popcorn is one of the major causes of dental disease. It suggests that an explosion of ‘posh popcorn’ causes tooth breakage. Here is why you should minimise that ‘posh popcorn.’
Key takeaways:
– Eating the rogue popcorn kernels at the very bottom can break and crack teeth.

– When the pieces get trapped in the gumline, they cause inflammation, abscess and eventually tooth loss.
Visit the dentist for professional exams and cleaning.
