We're not out and about long enough wearing masks that this would be any concern of ours...and we go to our dentist 3X's a year anyway for routine checkups

There's a lot of rumors going around regarding wearing a mask....everyone of them that I've heard is really silly when you stop and think about it. Keep in mind, there haven't been any legitimate controlled long term studies done on the impact of wearing a mask
...so all this 'stuff' about masks is just speculation or plain bull

IMHO tooth decay, receding gums and plain old bad breath is a result of neglect...and was most likely present long before someone started wearing a mask

that said, ya can't wear the same mask day in and day out without washing it...or if it's a throw away disposing of it
