28. Dentists say that good oral hygiene requires the daily brushing of teeth as well as
regular flossing. Both brushing and flossing help a person maintain strong and clean teeth.
They are both effective ways to remove dirt called plaque in between teeth and gums.
However, most people brush their teeth two to three times daily, but floss only once in a while.
The reason why many brush their teeth more often than they floss is that brushing is relatively
easier compared to flossing, which demands extra effort to be done effectively. Nevertheless,
flossing is important as it can remove food particles in between the teeth which cannot be
reached by a regular toothbrush. Flossing is, in fact, just as important as brushing the teeth.
What is undeniable, though, is that both brushing and flossing should be done to have healthy
gums and teeth.

Dinengdeng Festival

The Dinengdeng Festival is the official festivity event of the municipality of Agoo, La

Union, Philippines. It is held annually during summer in celebration of a dish by which its name is derived
from. One of the main purposes of “Dinengdeng Festival” is to promote the local tourism of the town, which
is one of the established Spanish settlements in the region. Replacing the old theme, based on one of its
primary agricultural products, the festival has smoothly been identified in the municipality.
“Dinengdeng”, is the Ilocano term for any vegetable-simmered dish. Usually cooked in a “banga”, a
local term for a cooking clay pot being used by the descendants of the local settlers in the pot called “Big
Banga” is used during the event in cooking the main dish. ancient times. In fact, the “banga” is now revived
to symbolize the festival. A large cooking clay
Dinengdeng Festival replaced the old event, Tobacco festival. The latter being too common for a
festival name in the region, has been used by several municipalities, as the crop itself becomes more
abundant and sometimes causes confusion as there were too many “Tobacco Festivals” in the region. The
local government tried to come up with uniqueness in its annual event, primarily to build up an identified
one for the town that would promote its cultural and livelihood values. In order to lift Agoo to the line of the
prominent festivities in the region, such as the Panagbenga and Bangus festivals, the event has been
established.
