What is the best kind of toothbrush to use?
A soft brush with the ADA seal on the back of the package.

How often should I get a new toothbrush?
Every 3-4 months or whenever the edges get frayed.

What is the best way to brush my teeth?
Small circular motions around all surfaces of the teeth. You should hold your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums. You should brush for a minimum of three full minutes. Brushing too hard or too often can cause gum problems. Check our products to see how Sonicare can help you with your brushing.

How important is flossing?
Flossing is an integral part of good oral hygiene. Food gets trapped between teeth, and the toothbrush can't remove it. Over time, this can lead to cavities and bad breath. Improper flossing techniques can cause damage to your gums. Consult your dentist about good flossing habits.

Do you have chronic bad breath?
Try brushing your tongue gently twice a day and maintain good flossing habits.

Don't have time to brush after lunch?
Eat an apple and rinse your mouth with water.
