What is proper oral hygiene in the case of periodontitis? Is brushing your teeth 2-3 times a day not enough? What paste? What brush?
Brushing is not enough. In order to stop the disease, it is necessary to pay special attention to oral hygiene. I advise you to use the Curaprox - ultra soft brush. In periodontal diseases, it is good to use Lacalut activ paste. The most important thing is to undergo oral hygiene treatment at least twice a year. The hygienist performing the procedure will provide instructions on how and where to use the pens, how to use dental floss and which rinses for daily hygiene. Once a year, radiological check-up and consultation with a periodontist.
Remember that our expert's answer is informative and will not replace a visit to the doctor.
