Well I can't believe I am doing this, but it seems like a good idea to lead by example and share with you how I brush my teeth. Please bear with me.My routine is preformed 2 times daily, once in the morning and once before bed. I am consistent six days a week, although it may vary depending on how tired I am.The sequence is floss, then brush, then hydrofloss. Not very exciting, but very practical.Flossing needs to be taught to you by a dental professional. I use the "wrap around the middle finger technique" that leaves the other fingers free to direct and control the floss. I will floss each side of a tooth ten times. Any floss will do, but I prefer the non-waxed floss because it gives me satisfaction when I hear it start to squeak. I like to floss first because I then use the brushing to remove the dislodged bacteria .Brushing should take at least four minutes by the clock. How much day dreaming can you do looking at yourself for four minutes twice a day? I find an electric toothbrush to be more efficient and I can very effectively brush in 2 minutes. I use a Rotadent because I think it is the best on the market.Next is a tongue scraper. This helps with odor control.Lastly I use a waterpik called a Hydrofloss, also the best on the market. I add a couple cap-fulls of BreathRX to help me with odor control.Total time: 4 minutes.Best wishes,Dr. Boyajian, West Los Angeleswww.dentalwellnessarts.com
