Hygiene

The ADA recommends the following for good oral hygiene

• Brush your teeth twice a day with an ADA-accepted fluoride toothpaste.
• Replace your toothbrush every three or four months,or sooner if the bristles are frayed. A worn toothbrush won’t do a good job of cleaning your teeth.
• Clean between teeth daily with floss or an interdental cleaner.
• Decay-causing bacteria still linger between teeth where toothbrush bristles can’t reach. This helps remove plaque and food particles from between the teeth and under the gum line.
• Eat a balanced diet and limit between-meal snacks.
