Brush gently, twice a day
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Brush for about two minutes, reaching every surface without scrubbing too hard.
Clean between your teeth
Floss or an appropriately sized interdental brush can reach the spaces a toothbrush misses. Your dentist can help you choose the right method.
Make check-ups part of your routine
The right interval between dental visits depends on your individual needs. Ask your dentist how often you should return.
This guide provides general information and does not replace an individual dental assessment. Speak with your dentist about your own needs.
