Brushing and flossing daily are essential for oral health, but improper technique can do more harm than good. Kevin Molldrem DDS explains why brushing too hard can lead to gum recession, why the right toothbrush makes a difference, and how skipping flossing allows bacteria to build up between teeth. He also discusses why timing matters—brushing immediately after acidic foods can wear down enamel. Small adjustments in your daily routine can prevent cavities, gum disease, and sensitivity, ensuring long-term oral health. Learning the correct methods will keep your smile healthy and strong for years to come.
