Doya’s Complete Guide to Oral Health: Brushing, Flossing & Rinsing

Your oral health plays a vital role in your overall well-being. A clean, healthy mouth supports your physical health, so prioritizing oral hygiene is essential. With Doya, you can ensure a complete oral care routine that keeps your teeth and gums in top condition.

Commit to a Professional and Daily Oral Care Routine

Seeing your dentist twice a year for professional teeth cleaning is crucial. However, daily maintenance is just as important. To protect your teeth from decay and gum disease, follow these essential habits:

• Brush your teeth twice a day to remove plaque buildup.

• Floss at least once daily to clean areas brushing can’t reach.

• Watch for signs of tooth discoloration or gum inflammation.

• Eat nutrient-rich foods to strengthen teeth and gums while reducing sugar and acid intake.

• Avoid smoking or chewing tobacco to prevent staining and bad breath.

Brushing Techniques for Maximum Cleanliness

Effective brushing is more than just scrubbing back and forth. Follow these steps to ensure a deep clean:

1. Hold your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums.

2. Use gentle, circular motions to massage teeth and gums.

3. Brush all surfaces of your teeth for at least two minutes.

4. Be gentle to avoid gum irritation and recession.

Brushing alone, however, only cleans about 25% of your mouth. That’s why flossing and rinsing are essential.

Flossing: The Key to Reaching Hidden Bacteria

Brushing misses about a third of your tooth surface, which is why flossing is necessary. To floss effectively:

• Wrap floss around each tooth in a C-shape.

• Gently slide the floss up and down, reaching under the gum line.

• Repeat this process for all teeth to remove plaque and debris.

Flossing helps prevent cavities between teeth and reduces the risk of gum disease.

Enhance Your Routine with an Antiseptic Mouthwash

For a truly complete oral care routine, finish with an antiseptic mouthwash like Doya Mouth Rinse. This step reaches 75% of the mouth’s surfaces that brushing and flossing miss. Mouthwash:

• Kills 99.9% of germs that cause plaque, gingivitis, and bad breath.

• Provides long-lasting freshness.

• Strengthens gums and supports overall oral hygiene.

For the best results, swish mouthwash for 30 seconds twice daily. The Canadian Dental Association supports antiseptic rinses as an effective addition to brushing and flossing.
