The Ways Oral Hygiene Treatment Can Spring Clean Your Mouth
Spring is just around the corner, and what better time to ramp up your oral hygiene regime and give those pearly whites a good clean? Here are some simple tips to make your smile sparkle this spring:
Oral hygiene treatments
At Baker Street Dental, we have an expert team of dental hygienists on hand to provide a range of cleaning treatments. Our aim is to prevent dental health issues, and give you a healthy, attractive smile, which makes you feel confident. Booking a dental hygiene session will not only reduce your risk of developing gum disease and decay dramatically. It can also make a miraculous difference to the look of your smile. Dental hygienists use powerful cleaning techniques and the latest technology and equipment to achieve a much more intensive, deeper clean than you get at home. They can remove plaque, and shift surface stains, to give you a beautiful, healthy smile. Even if you don’t have existing dental health problems, we strongly recommend routine appointments with our hygiene team.
Brushing at home
As well as seeing your dentist and a dental hygienist on a regular basis, it’s also essential to keep tabs on your oral hygiene regime at home. Adopting a good dental care routine will reduce your risk of dental disease, and keep your smile looking radiant.
We recommend:
- Brushing twice a day using fluoride toothpaste
- Choosing a brush with a small head and soft-medium bristles
- Brushing for at least 2 minutes each time
- Using circular motions
- Spending 30 seconds on each quadrant of the mouth
- Brushing gently
- Brushing your tongue
- Flossing daily
- Replacing your toothbrush or toothbrush head every 3 months
