Floss and Brush your Teeth Twice a Day
Many patients struggle to remember the importance of flossing. Flossing is essential to maintaining a healthy smile for many reasons, but did you also know it can help prevent gum disease? Put your floss in a place you’ll see it when you’re brushing your teeth so you won’t forget!
Use a Fluoride Toothpaste
Fluoride helps protect teeth from tooth decay. It helps make teeth strong and more resistant to acid, stops early tooth decay, and puts healthy minerals back in your teeth.
Use a Soft Bristle Toothbrush
We recommend soft bristle toothbrushes because they are gentle on your teeth and gums while still being able to remove harmful bacteria and plaque. Both children and adults should use soft bristles, as it allows for brushing close to the gum without irritation.
