The results come from a study carried out to publicise the advantages of good oral hygene in Sweden.
Swedish pharmacies taking part in the campaign are also looking for a couple to break the world record in kissing on Valentine's Day.

The marathon kiss will be broadcast live on the Swedish Pharmaceutical Association's website on February 14.
