To help you have the best tooth-brushing technique in Los Angeles, California, our Sami Y. Nouhad, DDS team has a few recommendations for you! Those recommendations are:
-Twice a day, brush your teeth. Preferably, use a toothbrush with soft bristles, as these irritate your gums the least. Medium and hard bristles may feel like they clean better, but they can make your gums swell with inflammation and wear away enamel.
-Make sure to replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months or once your toothbrush bristles have become worn out. This is necessary because frayed bristles will not properly clean the smile. Using a worn brush will promote tooth decay and gum disease.
-As you brush, use fluoride toothpaste that has been accepted by the American Dental Association. This product will help you safely and effectively clean the teeth while also strengthening your tooth enamel.
If you do these three things, there is a high chance that you will have an effective and successful tooth-brushing technique.

Nouhad, and our friendly dental team are here to help you in any way we can, and we look forward to hearing from you!
