Good oral hygiene

Good oral hygiene is the foundation for a healthy set of teeth throughout life. It is not about doing everything perfectly — it is about a few calm habits that hold up day to day. Here is how to care for your teeth well.

Daily brushing

Brush thoroughly twice a day with a soft-bristled brush with a small head. Angle the brush gently at the gumline and work in small circles, then cover the outer surfaces, inner surfaces, and biting surfaces systematically. If you use an electric toothbrush, guide it slowly along every surface — it does the movement for you. Brushing the top of your tongue as well will keep your breath fresh.

Between the teeth

Your toothbrush cannot reach between the teeth, yet that is where a large part of the work happens. Choose what suits you:

• Dental floss slides easily into tight spaces between teeth
• Interdental brushes come in several sizes to fit your individual gaps
• Toothpicks in wood or plastic follow the natural contours between teeth

What matters most is that you do it daily — not which tool you choose.
