Three at-home dental care mistakes we see often:
1. Brushing too hard (it wears down enamel, it doesn`t clean better)
2. Skipping the tongue (bacteria loves to hide here too)
3. Rinsing straight after brushing (it washes away the fluoride before it can work)
Small tweaks, better results. Any questions, ask us at your next visit.
