A reliable routine
Brush twice daily using fluoride toothpaste, including last thing at night. Spend time on the outer, inner and biting surfaces, and angle bristles gently towards the gumline.
Manual or electric?
Either can work well with good technique. An electric brush can help some people maintain consistent cleaning, particularly where dexterity or gum health is a concern.
Practical steps to remember
- Use gentle pressure
- Brush for around two minutes
