Brushing Up The Perfect Smile:Article from DENTAL HEALTH NEWSvol.1, issue 1

Most of us don't think too much about brushing - it's just something that we
do automatically. Our kids are shown the proper way to brush when they're at the dentist, but how many of us
have had a refresher course lately?

Let's take some basic
tooth brushing skills!

The first thing to do is to ensure that you have the proper toothbrush - one with soft, rounded bristles. Whether you prefer a manual or electric toothbrush, the selection of toothbrushes these days can be overwhelming, so don't be afraid to ask us for suggestions on the one
that would be best for you.

When you're comfortable with your choice of toothbrush, you'll want to review these simple brushing guidelines:

1. Don't rush your brush!
An egg timer on your bathroom counter should help you keep track to the 2 to 3 minutes that you should take to clean your teeth properly.

2. Easy does it...
start off by placing the toothbrush bristles at a 45-degree angle to your teeth, where your gums and teeth meet. Brush using a gentle touch, to avoid
gum irritation or damage.

3. Aim for an all-around,
thorough cleaning...
that means our chewing surface, your outer surface (cheek side) and your inner surface (tongue side). For fresh breath, don't forget to brush our tongue too!

4. Finally, make sure you replace your toothbrush every three or four months, or sooner if the bristles become frayed or if you have a cold or flu in the meantime.
