Dental Care at Home
Home oral hygiene is an essential part of every prophylaxis concept. Correct and thorough tooth brushing several times a day, preferably after every meal, is an effective preventive measure.
Suitable aids (toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, interdental brushes, etc.) facilitate thorough cleaning.
The optimal tooth brushing technique can vary greatly from person to person.
As a basic rule, brush from gum to tooth with light pressure.
Scrubbing is harmful and should be avoided.
Equally harmful is brushing with too much pressure. Combined with a brush with bristles that are too hard, this can injure the gums.
Our experienced prophylaxis professionals are happy to inform you about the correct brushing techniques.
Das Wichtigste auf einen Blick
- Gründliches Zähneputzen mehrmals täglich, möglichst nach jeder Mahlzeit, ist Teil der häuslichen Mundhygiene.
- Geeignete Hilfsmittel wie Zahnbürste, Zahnseide und Zwischenraumbürstchen erleichtern die gründliche Reinigung.
- Empfohlen wird die Putzrichtung von Rot nach Weiß mit leichtem Druck.
- Zu starker Druck oder zu harte Borsten können das Zahnfleisch verletzen.
