To maintain good oral hygiene, it is important to brush your teeth with fluoride toothpaste two to three times a day, after meals and once at night. Each brushing should last at least 2 minutes to ensure proper cleaning. We can also complement our oral hygiene routine by using a tongue cleanser, an interdental brush and mouthwash.
We can also use devices such as oral irrigators to ensure deeper cleaning. These devices use an adjustable pressurised water system that helps to remove bacterial plaque that adheres to the surface of the teeth, the gingival margin and the interdental spaces. These areas are harder to reach by brushing exclusively, especially if you have implants, prostheses or orthodontics, or if you suffer from periodontal issues.
They are very easy to use and will help to achieve deeper oral cleansing that reduces inflammation and bleeding gums. It will also help to reduce bad breath, largely caused by bacteria in the oral cavity. Remember that it is important to have regular check-ups with your dentist to ensure good oral health and hygiene.
