3. 7 When should I brush my teeth?
Make sure that you brush your teeth before breakfast in the morning and
before you go to bed at night. Also ensure that you brush your teeth for a
minimum of 2 minutes each time. Never brush straight after a meal as it can
damage your teeth.

4. 6 Should I use and electric or manual brush?
It doesn't matter whether you use an electric or manual toothbrush. They're
both equally good as long as you brush with them properly. However, some
people find it easier to clean their teeth thoroughly with an electric toothbrush.

5. 5 What should I look for in a toothbrush?
For most adults, a toothbrush with a small head and a compact, angled
arrangement of long and short, round-end bristles is fine. Medium or soft
bristles are best for most people. Use an electric brush with an oscillating or
rotating head. If in doubt, ask your dentist.

6. 4 What type of toothpaste should I use?
Most toothpastes also contain fluoride, which helps to prevent and control
cavities. It’s important to use a toothpaste with the right concentration of
fluoride. Check the packaging to find out how much fluoride each brand
contains.

movements, several times, on all the
surfaces of every tooth.

8. 2 How to floss
Flossing isn't just for dislodging food wedged between your teeth. Regular
flossing may also reduce gum disease and bad breath by removing plaque that
forms along the gum line.

9. 1 Should I use mouthwash?
Yes, using a mouthwash that contains fluoride can help prevent tooth decay and
help get rid of any last bits of bacteria or leftover food that you might
have missed with your toothbrush.
