Both natural teeth and teeth with restorations survive best in an oral environment that is clean and where the intake of harmful foods is controlled.
Our program is designed to help prevent new cavities, preserve teeth that have been restored and manage periodontal disease.
At the initial visit oral hygiene instructions are reviewed and are reinforced at subsequent recall visits.
Brush your teeth twice a day in a circular motion with a soft bristled toothbrush aimed at the gum.
Floss every night in an up-and-down motion while keeping the floss in a U-shape and against the tooth surface.
Brushing is the most effective method for removing harmful plaque from your teeth and gums.
Getting the debris off your teeth and gums in a timely manner prevents bacteria in the food you eat from turning into harmful, cavity causing acids.
Most dentists agree that brushing three times a day is the minimum; if you use a fluoride toothpaste in the morning and before bed at night, you can get away without using toothpaste during the middle of the day.
A simple brushing with plain water or rinsing your mouth with water for 30 seconds after lunch will generally do the job.
