How to Brush Your Teeth Properly

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and hold it at a 45-degree angle toward your gums. Brush gently in small circular motions to clean the front, back, and chewing surfaces of your teeth. For the inside of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and use gentle up-and-down strokes. Be sure to brush your gums and tongue as well to remove bacteria and keep your breath fresh. Brush twice a day for at least two minutes and rinse thoroughly after brushing for a healthier smile.

Caring for Sensitive Teeth

Sometimes after dental treatment, teeth are sensitive to hot and cold. This should not last long, but only if the mouth is kept clean. If the mouth is not kept clean the sensitivity will remain and could become more severe. If your teeth are especially sensitive consult with your doctor. They may recommend a medicated toothpaste or mouth rinse made especially for sensitive teeth.
