16.It is bad to have food stuck between your teeth for long periods of time.This is because food attracts germs;germs produce acid,and acid hurts your teeth and gums.Flossing(使用牙线) helps to remove the food that gets stuck between your teeth.This explains why flossing helps to keep your mouth healthy,but some doctors say that flossing can also be good for your heart.It may seem strange that something you do for your teeth can have any effect on your heart.Doctors have come up with a few ideas about how flossing works to keep your heart healthy.One idea is that the germs that hurt your teeth can leave the mouth and travel into your blood.Germs that get into the blood can then attack your heart.Another idea is based on the fact that when there are too many germs in your mouth,the body tries to fight against there germs.For some reason,the way the body fights these mouth germs may end up weakening the heart overtime.
Not every doctor agrees about these ideas.Some doctors think that the link between good flossing habits and good heart health is only a coincidence.The incidence (发生率) of two or more events is completely random,as they do not admit of any reliable cause and effect relationship between them.For example,every time I wash my car,it rains.This does not mean that when I wash my car,I somehow change the weather.This is only a coincidence.Similarly,some doctors think that people who have bad flossing habits just happen to also have heart problems,and people who have good flossing habits just happen to have healthy hearts.
The theory that flossing your teeth helps to keep your heart healthy might not be true.But every doctor agrees that flossing is a great way to keep your teeth healthy.So even if flossing does not help your heart,it is true to help your teeth.This is enough of a reason for everyone to floss their teeth every day.
