Providing Brushing & Flossing Advice in Cairns
Informed Insights for Healthy Teeth
Are you brushing and flossing as effectively as you could be? Small adjustments to your daily routine can make a difference in keeping your teeth and gums healthy. At Cairns Precision Dental Group, we provide brushing and flossing advice to help you maintain strong teeth and fresh breath. Simple habits like using the right toothbrush, flossing properly, and brushing for the right amount of time all contribute to long-term oral health.
We offer guidance on selecting the best oral care tools and using techniques that suit your needs. Brushing removes plaque from the surface of your teeth, while flossing cleans the areas your toothbrush can’t reach. A good routine supports healthy gums, reduces the risk of decay, and helps keep your mouth feeling fresh.
Good oral care starts at home. Contact us at (07) 4054 2203 for advice on how to improve your brushing and flossing habits. We offer dental treatments and advice for children, teens, adults and seniors.
General Brushing and Flossing Tips
- Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and gentle circular motions to clean all tooth surfaces.
- Floss before brushing to remove debris and help fluoride reach between teeth.
- Brush for at least two minutes, making sure to clean your tongue as well.
- Use a fluoride mouthwash after brushing for extra cavity protection.
- Avoid brushing too hard, as it can wear down enamel and irritate gums.
