Surrey dentists - Brushing

Here is one method of removing plaque  recommended by dentists in Surrey:

* Place the head of your toothbrush against your teeth and angle against the gumline.  Move the brush in small circular movements, several times, on all the surfaces of each individual tooth.

* Brush the outer surfaces of each tooth, upper and lower, keeping the bristles angled against the gumline.

* Use the same method on the inside surfaces of all your teeth.

* Brush the chewing surfaces of the teeth.

* To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and make several small circular strokes with the toe (the front part) of the brush.

* Brushing your tongue will help freshen your breath and will clean your mouth by removing bacteria.

Be sure to brush thoroughly with a fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day, more often if your dentist recommends it.  If you keep getting discomfort or bleeding after brushing go to see your dentist in Surrey about it.
