You need to choose the right toothbrush to get the maximum benefit from it. A nylon brush is best, as bristle splits and loses its shape quickly. Choose one with a small head so you can easily clean your back teeth enamel and gums. Change your toothbrush regularly, about every month.
Use floss at least once a day to clean between the teeth where the toothbrush cannot reaches. Waxed floss is best as it is less likely to catch on fillings or uneven edges. To floss, wind a short length around the second finger of each hand. Slide it gently down between two of the teeth, taking care to press it against the side of the tooth. Then gently slide it upwards out of the teeth, removing any food particles with it. Repeat between all os the teeth.
