Bacterial buildup in the mouth will still smell bad and plaque builds up outside the teeth.
Idk but if they were totally "imune" to all bacteria their body would not work like a human body and I guess this would make them look different in some way?! If the sun makes them indestructable so in krypton they were not imune to bacteria and then came to earth and now are? guess they would die. Better not go there lol
Even if your teeth are indestructible, not having brushed your teeth in the morning still tastes bad.
Only until you eat breakfast. Brushing your teeth before you eat is like wiping your butt before you poop.
Not only that but this is also a scene from when she was on a planet with a red Sun so therefore her body was reactive to decay.
If you want to interact with normal people, you don't want your mouth smelling like a dead corpse.
Kryptonian gingivitis is no joke.
Couldn't they just fly into the sun and get completely cleansed?
The sun is about 8 light minutes away from earth, so depending on what fraction of the speed of light kryptonians can fly, it'd take at least 16 minutes of traveling there and back instead of 2 to brush their teeth.
Probably still gets bad breath? Maybe? Idk
