Toothbrushing
Brushing is an important tool in caring for your teeth and gums. Brush your teeth at least twice a day, using a fluoride toothpaste. Use a dry toothbrush and make sure to spit - not rinse after brushing.
Using your toothbrush effectively will prevent a build up of plaque and the problems it causes. Ask the dentist or hygienist for advice on products available.
