Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often should I brush my teeth?
It is recommended to brush your teeth at least twice a day, in the morning after breakfast and before going to bed. Use a fluoride toothpaste and pay special attention to the areas where your teeth and gums meet. Remember to replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months or sooner if the bristles become frayed.
Q: What is the best way to floss my teeth?
Flossing once a day helps remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth, where a toothbrush can’t reach. Use a long piece of floss and wrap it around your middle fingers, leaving about an inch or two in between. Gently slide the floss between your teeth, curving it around the base of each tooth in a ‘C’ shape.
Q: Can I use mouthwash to replace my regular brushing and flossing routine?
Mouthwash can be a useful addition to your oral hygiene routine, but it should not replace brushing and flossing. At Top Smile Dental Clinic, we recommend using mouthwash in conjunction with these habits to help kill bacteria and freshen breath. Choose an antibacterial mouthwash and swish it around your mouth for 30 seconds before spitting it out.
