| toothbrushing |
The Bass method is a preferred method of brushing. It involves placing the tooth brush head at a 45 degree angle along the gumline, pointing downwards on the bottom teeth and upwards on the top teeth. The tips of the toothbrush bristles should go underneath the gumline. The toothbrush is gently vibrated, not scrubbed, along the gumline spending about 3 seconds on each tooth. The entire process of brushing should last 3-4 minutes (about the length of one song on the radio!)

| toothpaste |
Dentifrice is the toothpaste, powder, liquid or gel that is used with a toothbrush to clean teeth. It contains a mild abrasive, detergent, flavoring agent, humectant (retains water) and various medicaments designed to prevent tooth decay. Only a pea sized amount of dentrifice is recommended to be placed on the toothbrush. The actual mechanical action of brushing is more important than the tooth paste used. However a toothpaste containing fluoride helps to significantly reduce tooth decay.
