Sponsored Post: Boost your overall health!

By Lisa Ace

Like all health care these days, dental treatment is not inexpensive…so prevention and keeping one’s mouth clean means everything! It is a fact that most people do not clean well enough. The “2-minute rule” doesn’t work anymore if you want an honestly clean mouth unless you have only half your teeth! Using a soft tooth brush, concentrate on cleaning one tooth at a time or even one tooth surface at a time. Try it! Two minutes might turn into four before you know it.
 
Flossing those surfaces of your teeth that your brush does not reach, basically, in between your teeth and using a good mouthwash makes the cleaning complete. When finished do a “quality –control” check. Using something like a toothpick, look for that soft, white bacteria filled substance that we call plaque and where you might find it is where you need to spend more time cleaning.
 
Surprise your dentist or hygienist next time. Clean teeth means fewer cavities and fewer other tooth problems, healthy gums and a boost to your overall health. Dr. Russell Marchese Jr. -- 585-343-2711. Like us on Facebook or visit our Web site for more information.
