Home Care

Good oral hygiene is the foundation of dental health, and our dentists and team in Northridge, California, are here to guide you through the best practices to maintain your smile from the comfort of your home.

Tips for Effective Dental Home Care

To keep your smile healthy and bright, we recommend:

• Regular Brushing: Brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
• Flossing Daily: Floss at least once a day to remove plaque and food particles between teeth.
• Healthy Diet: Limit sugary and acidic foods and beverages to prevent tooth decay.
• Regular Mouthwash Use: Use an antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce bacterial growth and freshen breath.
• Changing Your Toothbrush: Replace your toothbrush every three to four months or sooner if bristles are frayed.

How Home Care Complements Professional Dental Care

While regular dental checkups and cleanings are essential, your daily home care routine plays a significant role in:

• Extending the effectiveness of professional dental treatments.
• Reducing the risk of developing severe dental problems.
• Enhancing the overall health and appearance of your smile.
