There are some very interesting dental facts that you may not be aware of, but may find intriguing. In 1780, the first mass produced toothbrush was designed by an English prisoner.

The first nylon bristled tothbrush with a plastic handle was invented in 1938 and probably proved more sanitary than bones and boar bristles.

Toothpastes and tooth powders came into use during the 19th century; however, the early Greeks and Romans used crushed boned and shells as abrasive ingredients in tooth cleaning substances.

Here are some of the most common apartment fire hazards:

Hazard #1: Residential Clothes Dryers

Most clothes dryer fires occur during fall and winter months, according to the USFA. The majority of units overheat due to infrequent cleaning; tenants’ clothing (inside dryers) and dust, lint, and fiber were the most likely items to catch fire.
