The Science of Proper Brushing
Research shows that most patients don't brush effectively, missing critical areas where plaque accumulates. This evidence-based tutorial demonstrates the precise technique recommended by the American Dental Association and endorsed by Dr. Ostovar at Aloha Modern Dentistry.
You'll discover the optimal 45-degree bristle angle against the gumline, learn proper brush pressure to clean without damaging delicate tissues, understand the importance of timing, and identify commonly overlooked areas. These simple refinements to your twice-daily routine can dramatically reduce your risk of cavities and gum disease.
