Brushing Your Teeth

Brushing and flossing your teeth and gums on a daily basis is essential to maintaining a healthy smile. A soft-bristled toothbrush should be used to brush your teeth for two minutes twice a day, as advised by the American Dental Association’s guidelines. Don’t forget to brush your teeth and gums gently and with a soft toothbrush to avoid damaging them. Using toothpaste that contains fluoride and has been approved by the American Dental Association will help you maintain a bright, healthy smile. Keep in mind to replace your toothbrush’s bristles every three months or when they become frayed.

To use a toothbrush:
Hold your toothbrush 45 degrees away from your gum line. Use short strokes to move your toothbrush back and forth while keeping this angle. Ensure that you brush the biting surfaces of the back teeth and the interior and exterior surfaces of the teeth.

Use up-and-down strokes while tilting your toothbrush vertically to clean the backs of the upper and lower front teeth.

To keep your mouth feeling clean and fresh, it’s a good idea to brush your tongue after your routine is finished.

  • Dr Maryz is truly THE best dentist i have ever had, and trust me I've been through alot searching for the right one! I am classic example of someone who has a tremendous fear of dentists based on past experiences. Dr Maryz makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed the minute I see her. I changed my insurance plan just so myself and my children could join her practice. She's a perfectionist and dental artist. She explains everything to me and never never pushes her opinion on to me. She provides all the facts and respects my decisions, never judging me for my actions. Her staff are the perfect support not just for her practice but also her patients. Don't think twice about booking an appointment with Dr Maryz. She's the best!!

    I have been going to Dr. Maryz ever since she opened this office based on a recommendation of a friend. It was the best decision I made. I have full confidence in her ability to diagnose and treat me in the best way possible. I had an implant placed by her in September and I am getting my crown on my implant next week. The process has been extremely smooth. Highly recommended. You won’t regret seeing Dr. Maryz

  • I went in for a cleaning last Tuesday, October 22 and left very satisfied and heard. Dr.Estedrak, the dental hygienist and the front desk receptionist were professional, detailed, and lovely people. I’ve been getting cleanings my whole life, and Dr. Estedrak is the first person to recommend going in every four months. I will be back and I am very happy to find a competent dentist in this area.
