Smile Wisconsin! Your Teeth Health Is One Of The Best In The U.S.
Oral health is very important and if it's bad, it can mean a very unhealthy body and unhealthy mind. People in Wisconsin take really good care of their teeth.
We have proof that Cheeseheads have great smiles as the Badger State was named the state with the 2nd-best dental health. Sure, clogged arteries are in full force but smiles in Wisconsin are beautiful, full, and white.
How does Wisconsin have such great teeth? Let's explore their secrets.
The Midwest Has Really Good Teeth Health
Wisconsin isn't the only state in the Midwest with awesome oral health. All Midwest states, except for Missouri and Indiana, rank in the top 20 states with the best dental health.
People in Wisconsin and throughout the region do a really great job at taking care of their teeth with good oral habits. They also have awesome overall dental health, according to WalletHub's latest list.
Wisconsin ranks as the 2nd best state with overall dental health. It ranked 3rd in dental habits and care, and 7th in oral health. The only state to rank higher than Wisconsin was Illinois which landed in the #1 spot.
The Quad Cities Has Great Oral Health
To many people's disbelief, the Quad Cities actually has really great oral hygiene and health.
Just a few spots down from Wisconsin and Illinois, Iowa lands as the state with the 12th best dental health on WalletHub's list. Sure, some of us need to visit the dentist more often than others but that's the case everywhere. Some people also don't have the money or insurance to do so.
If you start paying attention to other's teeth in Iowa, you'll notice they aren't as bad as you assume.
Toothless Wonders Live In The South
It's not a stereotype if it's true, right?
The states with the worst dental health are primarily in the South or the states you would think are at the bottom.
Florida, Kentucky, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi take up the bottom 10. Arkansas is the state with the worst dental health. No surprise there.
