The Keys to a Great Smile: Toothbrushing Techniques

Posted .

Have you ever had to work on your toothbrushing techniques to enhance your smile? Due to the fact that your teeth can wear down over time, it is important to make sure that you remain on top of toothbrushing techniques and adjust your oral health care accordingly.

One of the most traditional and yet effective methods for brushing includes making sure that you brush twice a day with a toothbrush that can reach all areas of your mouth. Typically, it may take you two to three minutes to clean all areas within your mouth. Oftentimes, individuals only brush the chewing surfaces of their teeth and forget to clean all sides of each tooth. Also, remember to clean off other areas in your mouth such as your tongue and gums. For additional help in cleaning between teeth in areas brushes cannot reach, consider the use of interdental cleaning tools such as a water flosser or dental floss. Beyond your oral hygiene daily routines, you may also want to visit our prosthodontist for regular checkups and professional cleanings.
