FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to brush my teeth?

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste, brushing at a 45-degree angle to your gums in short, gentle strokes across all surfaces of your teeth for at least two minutes, twice a day.

How often should I replace my toothbrush?

Replace your toothbrush every three to four months, or sooner if the bristles become frayed, to maintain effective cleaning.

Can flossing really make a difference in my oral hygiene?

Yes, daily flossing removes plaque and food particles from between the teeth and under the gumline where a toothbrush can’t reach, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.

What foods should I avoid to keep my teeth healthy?

Limit sugary and acidic foods and beverages, such as candy, soda, and fruit juices, as they can erode tooth enamel and lead to decay.

Is using mouthwash necessary for dental health?

Incorporating an antibacterial or fluoride mouthwash into your daily routine can help reduce plaque buildup, prevent cavities, and freshen breath, but it should not replace brushing and flossing.
