Remember that when you’re keeping your smile healthy and clean that cleaning between your teeth is part of the equation. If you’re focusing only on getting the surfaces of your teeth clean, then you’re only doing a partially good job. “Isn’t this enough?” you might ask yourself. Unfortunately, when we’re discussing your oral health, “enough” is only when you’re completing the cleaning session by getting all dental surfaces clean, which includes the areas between your teeth. So, what can you do to be sure you’re addressing even these little spaces? Our Livonia, MI practice can answer that with easy care reminders!
