What Is The Proper Way to Brush Your Teeth? Ask Our Dentists

Our dentists and dental team at By The Lake Dental emphasise that mastering proper brushing techniques forms the foundation of effective plaque removal and lasting oral health. Here are some tips shared by our dental team to help you achieve a healthier, more confident smile with every brushstroke.

• Understanding why we brush our teeth is the first step. Plaque that latches onto your teeth can cause irritation and infect your gums. The reason you brush is to get rid of the plaque.

• Now you need to choose a good toothbrush. Electric toothbrushes are the best for you to use, as along with a good brushing technique, they get rid of the most plaque.

• Lastly, the most important step is using the right brushing technique. Make sure to brush with fluoride toothpaste for 2 minutes, while angling the brush towards your gums.
