Brushing: 3 Reasons To Discuss It With Our Team

There are some very good reasons to discuss brushing with our team. Of course, if you don’t have a doubt in your mind that you’re doing everything correctly and you aren’t dealing with any uncertainty regarding the products you use for dental hygiene, then keep at it! However, if there’s even the tiniest question in your mind regarding how to brush more effectively, it’s certainly worth bringing up. We’ll be happy to talk with you and set things right.

Reason #1: You Aren’t Happy With Your Results

Maybe you aren’t happy with what you’re seeing once you’re done brushing. Perhaps your teeth feel like they’re coated. Maybe your breath isn’t becoming or staying fresh. Or, maybe everything feels okay but you find that during checkups, you often discover that you have cavities. Let’s help you find out what’s wrong and fix it. Ask us!

Reason #2: You Feel Like You’re Just Guessing

Are you in the bathroom with your toothbrush and toothpaste but you feel a little bit like you’re just guessing throughout your dental hygiene? This is a good reason to talk with us. We’ll fill you in on the facts.

Reason #3: Random Questions Keep You Wondering

How should you be storing your toothbrush, so that you’re using one that’s clean instead of one that might be dangerous for your oral health, you may wonder? Is it okay to share a brush (hint: it is not!)? Is it important to brush your tongue every time you brush (it is!)? These types of questions and more may keep you feeling like you’re almost brushing well but not quite. Bring up any random question related to your dental hygiene and we will most happily answer it.
