Elevate Your Brushing Routine

Brushing your teeth might seem straightforward, but doing it correctly is essential for maintaining optimal oral health. At Gresham Family Dentistry, we want to help you master this daily habit to ensure your smile stays healthy and bright.

Choose the Right Toothbrush

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush that fits comfortably in your mouth and can reach all areas. Replace it every three to four months.

Master the Technique

Hold your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums and brush gently in short strokes. Clean all surfaces, including outer, inner, and chewing surfaces.

Brush for Two Minutes

Brush twice a day for two minutes each time. Clean between your teeth daily to remove plaque and food particles that toothbrushes can’t reach.

Eat a Balanced Diet

Limit sugary snacks and beverages to protect your teeth and support overall oral health.
