Are there any special brushes or appliances that are most effective in cleaning?
Usually the proper use of a soft brush and regular or waxed floss is all you need. However, the “Sonicare” not only cleans your teeth and gums very efficiently, but may also have the ability to kill surrounding bacteria without even touching them, due to its unique vibration of water that can “explode” the bacteria nearby. We highly recommend it, and it is available at a great price from our store. Click here. In our view, another superior product is a floss called “Glide”. This floss is made out of gortex, and has the ability to slide between your teeth a lot easier than regular floss. A lot of other electric toothbrushes on the market have also been proven to be effective in increasing your hygiene level. See our store for some different types. As a final note, it should be emphasized that taking care of your general health goes a long way in maintaining your periodontal health. For example, a poor diet, diabetes, and smoking could exacerbate any potential periodontal disease.
