How to clean your teeth?
The best way to have clean teeth is to visit a dentist for professional cleaning and follow a regular oral health routine of twice-daily toothbrushing and daily flossing. Read on for more tips from Fellows Dental Practice on the best way to clean teeth.
How to clean your teeth properly….
You can achieve and maintain clean teeth easily if you have the right tools and technique for brushing your teeth. We recommend using an electric toothbrush; a flouride toothpaste with at least 1450ppm flouride; Dental floss or tape and tepe brushes for cleaning between your teeth. We sell all of the above items and can guide you through how best to use them to clean your
teeth to maintain a sparkly set of nashers!
We recommend using an electric toothbrush if possible – rechargeable Oral B or Sonicare brushes are our favourites. Hold the brush at a 45-degree angle and slowly move it over all surfaces of your teeth, using a systematic process so each area of your mouth gets a proper clean. If you prefer to use a manual toothbrush, hold it at approximately a 45-degree angle to the teeth you are brushing. Use small strokes and brush your teeth in sections. Don’t forget to go all the way behind your last tooth on each side. Do not brush too hard, but ensure you use a suitable firmness of bristles for your teeth and gums.
Floss between your teeth ensuring that you clean the edge of each tooth. Brushing cleans the top, front and back surfaces of the teeth but flossing is needed to clean between each tooth. This is best achieved using dental tape or Tepe brushes. The size of Tepe brush you 
need will vary depending upon the amount of space there is between your teeth.
Rinse away teeth stains: if you can’t brush your teeth after consuming food or beverages that may stain your teeth, preserve clean teeth by rinsing your mouth with water or a dental rinse.
