Choosing a Toothbrush and Toothpaste
Toothbrushes and Floss
Brushing with a fluoride toothpaste and flossing daily
are important. These actions remove the sticky plaque that accumulates
on our teeth. If the plaque is not removed it becomes the perfect
place for bacteria to gather and begin the decay process. Flossing
helps to remove any food that becomes trapped between teeth and
at the gum line.
There are many types of toothbrushes on the market. It is generally
recommended that you use a soft bristle brush at a 45 angle to your
teeth, brushing in the direction that the teeth grow, that is: from
the gum down for top teeth and from the gum up on the bottom teeth
front and back, and at a horizontal angle on the biting surfaces
on the molars. Floss comes in many varieties, waxed, un-waxed, tape,
and in many flavors, etc. Ask your dentist which type is recommended
for you.
Toothpaste
Toothpaste is available in many forms: pastes, gels, drops and
powders and they come in every color and flavor imaginable. Toothpaste
has been formulated to eliminate decay, strengthen teeth, reduce
tartar, whiten teeth, freshen breath and eliminate tooth sensitivity.
