Keeping your mouth squeaky clean!
The dentists at Future of Dentistry believe that oral hygiene is our patients’ first step to a healthy, beautiful smile. We recommend, as does the American Dental Association (ADA), effective at-home oral care, including:
- Brushing 2-3 times per day with a fluoride toothpaste
- Flossing once per day
- Maintaining a healthy diet (fruits, vegetables, etc.)
- Limiting consumption of sugary foods and beverages (soda, etc.)
- Limiting use of alcohol, chewing tobacco, and cigarettes
Cleaning Your Teeth – The Right Way
Our hygienists also recommend using a Sonicare toothbrush for your daily at-home oral care. Your overall health will also thank you!
Finally, do not forget to schedule 6-month check-ups for both you and your family members. The ADA recommends routine check-ups every 6 months for those ages 4 and older.
Professional cleanings by our highly qualified hygienists can be viewed as a preventive measure to destroy harmful bacteria and plaque that create serious dental and health issues.
