What is YOUR oral hygiene routine?

I recently saw a Tiktok of a dental hygienist showing her morning dental routine. I as shocked to see her proceed to get into … oil pulling, water flossing, mouthwash, tongue scraper, electric toothbrush THEN a do over with a soft bristled manual brush. This is all just in the MORNING.

It got me thinking, as a dentist, I brush twice a day with my $3 toothbrush and tape floss every second day … if I remember to 🙃 I never use mouthwash and I really don’t enjoy electric toothbrushes.

What is everyone else’s daily routine?! Is it just me that thinks the hygienist’s routine was just straight overkill?

... Read moreOral hygiene is vital for maintaining overall health and preventing dental issues. Many people have unique routines that may include brushing with a soft-bristled manual toothbrush, using tape floss for better access between teeth, or the latest gadgets like water flossers. Additionally, mouth rinses such as GUM SENSODYNE or BREATH BAL RINSE can help with breath freshening and oral care. Oil pulling, a traditional practice, is gaining popularity for its possible benefits, including reducing bacteria in the mouth. Moreover, finding the right combination of methods that suit your lifestyle is essential. Some experts suggest incorporating professional dental cleanings every six months and being consistent with your routine to achieve optimal dental health. Share your own tips, ask questions, and engage with the community to continually enhance your oral care journey. Don't forget—whatever your routine, a healthy smile can make a big difference in your overall confidence and well-being.
