??
Answers:
Hi Angel. I've been in dentistry for over 25 years. 2 minutes is the best amount of time to brush. And YES you must floss to get between the teeth and under the gum line to remove bacteria and food particles. MOST serious cavities are between the teeth and head straight to the nerve. So this is really the most important thing of all. If you have a probably doing it right, next time you have your teeth cleaned have the hygienist show you. You can also by floss holders if it is hard to reach all the way in the back. M
ive heard its something like 2 mins or like 1 min 20 secs...long enough to sing 'yellow submarine'
YES!! floss everyday! it seems annoying and useless...but it makes a big difference and your mouth just feels that much cleaner and fresher after doing it
brush till feels clean(why time it?)
do use mouthwash daily
and yes.floss.
good recipe to keep your teeth
You should brush you teeth for 2 minutes. And, yes flossing is necessary, because if you don't, and you go to the dentist, they will do it for you, and it will hurt and your gums will bleed. (Trust me, it happened to me on my last visit. I never floss in the back of my mouth because it is hard to get back there. When they did it, my gums bled, and it hurt like.!)
2 miniutes is how long you should brush... Most power toothbrushs have timers on them so you know when to stop brushing... I recommend buying one of those. (I use Oral B, which is what my dentist recommended)
Yes, you should floss daily... Or get a waterpick... That works even better... :)
