Clean between your teeth daily
Use floss or interdental brushes suited to the spaces between your teeth.
Have sugary food and drinks less often
Keep sugary food and drinks to mealtimes where possible and choose water between meals.
Keep up with dental visits
Your dentist or hygienist can recommend a schedule based on your needs.
Struggling to reach an area? Ask us to show you how to clean it and which tools could help.
Should I ignore bleeding gums?
No. Arrange an assessment so we can identify the cause and advise on gum care.
Can brushing remove tartar?
Hardened deposits need professional cleaning. Brushing and cleaning between teeth help reduce new build-up.
