Hygiene
Tooth Paste Recommendations
We are often asked what toothpaste we recommend. Recent literature shows that
Colgate’s Total toothpaste (if tolerated) is the most effective due to the
special chemical tricolasan, which prevents plaque from sticking to teeth for up
to 24 hours.
Electric Toothbrush Recommendations
In spite of many claims by manufacturers, most electric toothbrushes are no
more effective at plaque removal than a manual brush after 3 months. Most
patients stop using them after that time frame. Our favorite water pick is
the “Hydro-Floss” which is available through our office.
Dental Floss Recommendations
Additionally, our favorite floss is Johnson & Johnson’s un-waxed floss
which is effective because the floss squeaks when the teeth are plaque free.
If you or someone you love has a dental concern, please contact our office
for a convenient appointment.
