Periodontal diseases can and will recur if you do not follow a strict program of supportive periodontal therapy. You play the major role in preventing further outbreaks of disease. Nothing will help you maintain the results of professional treatment better than daily removal of plaque by proper brushing methods recommended

Hold the brush at an angle of 45 degrees and brush the inside of the back teeth.

Use the tips of the brush to clean the inner surfaces of the front teeth.

Using the same circular motion, brush outer surfaces in a circular or up & down motion

Using a scrubbing motion, clean the chewing surfaces. Also brush your tongue gently and rinse well with water.

Take approx 45 cms of floss and wrap it around your middle fingers. With your thumb and index fingers, secure it well.
