If we begin with the bad news that’s associated with preventive care, we remind you that many patients feel as though it’s a much more complex and challenging aspect of their lives than it has to be! Now, to follow up the bad with the good news, our Conroe, TX team is thrilled to report that the truth is: Prevention can actually be an expressly simple and effective means of protecting your smile and it doesn’t have to be confusing or complicated. Let us help you make it as simple as can be!

Your Shopping List

Not interested in developing cavities or any other problems? Well, then. You’ll want your preventive care to be on point! Of course, this means doing your absolute best with dental hygiene. To begin, let’s start at the very beginning with the shopping list of items you will need to purchase in order to have everything you require in your bathroom to brush and floss your smile:

• Purchase a soft-bristle toothbrush
• Buy a tube of fluoridated toothpaste
• Bring home dental floss
• Do your best to buy ADA (American Dental Association) accepted items

Brushing Details

We would like you to recognize that brushing doesn’t have to be complicated or hard. Instead, it can be very easy when you know just what to do for this part of your preventive care. Let’s break it all down in easy steps:

• First, brush gently in the morning
• Next, make sure to also brush gently in the evening
• Remember to make each brushing session last a total of two minutes, so you’re brushing for four minutes every day

All About Flossing

Flossing? It’s easy. Again, let’s help you work your way through a series of easy preventive care steps:

• Start with a floss strand measuring around 18 inches
• Floss throughout your entire smile, getting between all teeth and behind back teeth
• Take your time
