Support Your Dental Health Between Visits

#1 Brush Twice A Day

Proper brushing is essential for cleaning teeth and gums effectively. Use a toothbrush with soft, nylon, round-ended bristles that will not scratch and irritate teeth or damage gums. Remember to replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months, or after an illness.

#2 Floss Daily

Flossing is an essential part of the Daily 4 because it removes bacterial plaque between teeth and at the gumline. If you find flossing awkward or difficult, ask your dental hygienist about dental floss holders or other interdental cleaning devices.

#3 Rinse with Mouthwash

Your teeth only account for less than half the surface area of your mouth. To reduce the amount of bacteria in the rest of your mouth, use an antimicrobial mouthwash to rinse twice a day. Your dental hygienist can help select the best type of oral rinse for your individual needs. Be sure to follow any manufacturer instructions on how long to wait after rinsing before eating or drinking.

#4 Chew Sugar-Free Gum

Try chewing sugar-free gum for 20 minutes after meals, or to help keep your teeth clean when you are on the go.
