Don’t Look Now, But Your Teeth May Not Be As Clean As You Think

Don’t Look Now, But Your Teeth May Not Be As Clean As You ThinkHave you ever had the disturbing feeling of having brushed and brushed your teeth, but still feel as if they are dirty? It’s much more common than you may think, and you should be aware of it.

Lots of people find that they are not quite satisfied with the results of brushing their teeth. Totally clean teeth will have a “squeaky clean” feeling that’s very distinct from the rough and sticky feeling that you might have when your teeth are not clean.

If you are feeling like you are brushing and brushing but not achieving the goal of totally clean teeth, then you should listen to that feeling and make positive changes in your dental regimen.

Let’s look at some ideas:

  1. Switch From A Manual To An Electric Toothbrush
    The direction and pace of your brushing can make a difference in achieving true clean. A high quality electric toothbrush automates this for you so that you can get better cleaning results.
  2. Change Your Bristles Or Toothbrush Head
    Within a few months of regular use, the bristles on a toothbrush become damaged and less effective at interacting with the porous surface of your teeth. Replacing them can help.
  3. Floss Daily
    Food particles caught between teeth can result in the development of the sticky “biofilm” that contributes to an unclean mouth feeling. Flossing before bed each day can remove particles.
  4. Get A Professional Dental Cleaning
    Sometimes, people might feel overwhelmed with the state of their teeth and need help. Nothing resets the clock quite like getting a professional dental cleaning.
