Dental Hygiene Tips

Brushing

• Always move your toothbrush in a short, gentle, circular motion.
• Hold your toothbrush at a 45 degree angle when brushing.  Try to get the bristle tips directly under the gumline.
• Pay attention to detail.  Always try to brush the outer, inner and chewing surfaces of your teeth.
• Brush your tongue.  This removes bacteria and freshens your breath.

Flossing

• Use around 18 inches of floss.  Wind most of it around the middle finger on both hands.
• Use a gentle, sawing motion when sliding the floss between your teeth.
• Move the floss in an up and down motion while holding it against the tooth.
• Always remember to floss the backside or your tooth.
