Dr. Ana Popescu1/15/20245 min

Daily oral hygiene is the foundation of dental health. A proper care routine can prevent most dental problems and contribute significantly to overall health.
Proper Brushing
Teeth should be brushed at least twice a day for a minimum of two minutes. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Movements should be circular and gentle, covering all tooth surfaces.
Dental Floss
Using dental floss is essential for removing plaque and food debris from interdental spaces where the toothbrush cannot reach. It should be used at least once a day, preferably in the evening.
Mouthwash
Antibacterial mouthwash can complement your oral hygiene routine, helping reduce bacteria and maintain fresh breath. Consult your dentist for personalized recommendations.
