Gum Care

Floss Alternatives

If you floss and it is working for you…great! For the rest of us, there are alternatives. For most patients, that is going to be an oral irrigator like the Waterpik.

Waterpik
When we started recommending these to our patients, the collective health of our patients went up dramatically. They work. It’s what most of here use.
Hydrofloss
This oral irrigator is great for people who build up tartar quickly. They have a magnet in them that works like magic.
Tepe Interdental Brushes
These little brushes are used in between your teeth instead of flossing or waterpiking. They’re convenient and effective. Have one of our dental hygienists help you pick out the right size.

Toothbrushes

Unless you can vibrate your hand at 40,000 oscillations per minute, you will do better with an electric toothbrush. You can find cheaper models, but in general, the more you spend, the more effective they are.

Oral B
Small head design, good power, and the built-in “you’re pushing too hard” detector is wonderful.
Sonicare
This has a bit of a different action than the Oral B, more sonic vibration. If you are ticklish, watch out!

Mouthwash

Killing bacteria that not only cause bad breath but causes tooth loss and overall health issues. It doesn’t matter if they are hiding on your tongue and cheecks, mouthwash will find them.

Closys
You’ll notice the fresher breath, for sure. But, what makes us even happier is that it is one of only a few mouthwashes that really does what it is supposed to do, fight off harmful bacteria.
TheraBreath
Bacteria fighting formula that includes essential oils make this a great choice for reducing inflammation.

Toothpaste

We generally don’t recommend “tartar control” toothpastes even though they seem like they should be a good choice.Too many harsh chemicals make us a bit uncomfortable. We like these.

Closys
If you are prone to canker sores, this toothpaste will really help. And yes, it takes gum disease seriously, that’s Closys.
Sensodyne Pronamel
Formulated to counteract sensitive teeth that acidic foods and drinks that some like to enjoy cause.
Carifree
The best cavity-fighting toothpaste that we have ever used. Just say no to dental decay.
