How many times a day should I floss?
Once a day is fine to floss, preferably before bedtime.
Can my child eat after a dental cleaning?
In most cases, a Fluoride treatment is given after a teeth cleaning. If so, you may be asked to wait a half hour before eating. That may also depend on the type of Fluoride received. READ MORE
In most cases, a Fluoride treatment is given after a teeth cleaning. If so, you may be asked to wait a half hour before eating. That may also depend on the type of Fluoride received. Some Fluoride/Varnish does not require that you refrain from eating. That is a good question to ask your dental provider.
Can children use a Waterpik?
Waterpiks are recommended for patients in orthodontics. Otherwise, it is best to use floss.
