🪥 ✨ Tip Tuesday: 10 Ways to Brush Like a Pro! ✨

1️⃣ Don’t rush the brush!
Two minutes, twice a day. That’s just one song on Spotify — make it count 🎶

2️⃣ Angle matters.
Hold your toothbrush at a 45° angle toward the gumline — that’s where plaque loves to hide.

3️⃣ Soft bristles = happy gums.
Hard bristles don’t mean a deeper clean — they can actually scrub away enamel (ouch!).

4️⃣ Change it up!
Replace your toothbrush or brush head every 3 months — or sooner if it looks like it had a rough day.

5️⃣ For implants:
Use a soft, non-metal brush and make small circular motions around the gumline. Add an interdental brush or water flosser for an A+ clean.

6️⃣ For complete dentures:
Remove and brush them daily with a denture brush and mild soap (not toothpaste — it’s too abrasive!). Then, soak overnight and brush your gums and tongue, too!

7️⃣ Timing is everything.
Wait at least 30 minutes after eating before brushing — especially after acidic foods like citrus or soda.

8️⃣ Electric advantage.
Electric toothbrushes remove up to 2x more plaque — your arm will thank you.

9️⃣ Don’t forget your tongue.
It’s a bacteria hotspot — use a tongue scraper or your brush gently to keep your breath fresh. 👅

🔟 Fun fact finale:
If you skip brushing before bed, you’re giving bacteria an 8-hour all-you-can-eat buffet. 🍽️ Don’t be their host!

💡 Remember: your smile deserves the best care — whether it’s natural, implant-supported, or fully removable!
