Planning Smile Care With The Number “2”

Posted on May 16th, 2019

When you’re living your daily life, dental care is a part of it. What you want is to feel like you can easily and effectively clean your smile without getting behind, feeling like you’re having trouble with the particulars, or getting bogged down in any details. The fortunate news in terms of planning out dental hygiene and more is that there are definitely some tips and tricks you can very easily adhere to! Today, our Saxonburg, PA team reminds you that when you keep the number “2” in mind, it can help with the bulk of keeping your preventive care on track.

Your 2 Dental Hygiene Sessions Every Day!

Let’s get started with something you should think about as you greet each and every day with a (hopefully) healthy smile! When you wake up in the morning, remember that your day needs to include two dental hygiene sessions. There’s never a reason to think it’s okay to cut it down to just one session. Your smile needs the consistent removal of plaque (and debris from the foods and drinks you eat) in order to keep it safe. Otherwise, plaque may harden and become something you don’t want lingering (called tartar). “But when should these sessions happen?” you may be wondering. Easy. You should brush in the morning. You should brush in the evening. You should also floss during one of these sessions!

Brushing That Lasts 2 Minutes

Good. Now you realize that in order to protect your oral health through your dental care at home, you have absolutely got to perform dental hygiene sessions twice a day! That’s the first “2” you need to keep in mind. What’s the next? Well, you should remember that each one of those brushing sessions you perform needs to last two minutes. As a result, your day will include four total minutes of brushing. To ensure you’re actually getting through two minutes and not coming up short or overdoing it, we recommend using some type of timer, so you can keep an eye on the clock and keep your smile nice and clean.

Your 2 Dental Visits Every Year

Okay, two dental hygiene sessions every day, two-minute brushing sessions, you’re almost there! As for the dental care that brings you out of your house and into our dental practice for the professional part of your prevention, “2” is your magic number once again! See our team two times a year (every six months) for smile health.
