ORAL CARE ROUTINE: STRAIGHT FROM YOUR MOUTH COACH
BRUSH. FLOSS. RINSE.
REPEAT.
Being the owner of great teeth sounds pretty simple. However, your lifestyle or life events (like aging or pregnancy) could get in the way of committing to the routine.Luckily for you, we customized oral care plans with tips for every kind of mouth.
ONE FOR ALL
The oral care starter pack.
A simple brush-floss-rinse routine sets the foundation for good oral health.
CHILD'S PLAY
A routine for kids.
Don't ban chocolates and sweets from a child's diet. Instead encourage healthy oral care habits.
SMOKE ALARM
Advice for smokers.
Smokers face a higher risk of tartar, gum problems like periodontitis, dry mouth, pre-cancerous lesions and countless other problems as smoking weakens the immune system. A strong oral care routine is vital for a healthy mouth.
OLDER AND WISER
Extra care for senior citizens.
Older people have a weaker immune system and suffer from naturally receding gums. As they are at a higher risk of gingivitis, rinsing is crucial for limiting germs and keeping gums healthy.
NOT SUGARCOATED
Tips for diabetics.
Diabetics are more susceptible to gum inflammation and are at higher risk for developing gingivitis. They also take longer to heal from infections so vigilance is key in preventing oral problems.
BRACE UP
A plan for people with braces.
Braces make it hard to brush and floss efficiently, leading to plaque buildup. Rinsing adds an extra layer of protection.
