TIPS FROM OUR HYGIENIST:
How to keep your oral health care healthy at home.
BRUSH 2X A DAY
Brush your teeth at least two times a day for two minutes. We recommend using our favorite Philips Sonic electric toothbrush which removes 25% more plaque!
FLOSS 2X A DAY
No matter how good you are with brushing, dental floss is the only way to remove plaque between your teeth and keep tartar out. We recommend using our favorite CocoFloss!
NUTRITION
Keep your teeth strong and healthy by staying away from food/drinks that can by harmful to your tooth's enamel like sticky and sugary sweets or carbonated soft drinks.
DENTAL VISITS
We recommend having a dental cleaning every six months. However, depending on your oral health needs, we may recommend you visit us every three months.
