Hard bristles do not clean bonding. They can feel rough against the gums. May gradually wear the surface of your teeth if you brush too aggressively.<\/p>\n<p>An electric toothbrush is fine too. Just let it do the work of pressing it hard against the bonded tooth. Pressing harder usually feels like you are cleaning better. It does not give you cleaner teeth.<\/p>\n<h3>How Hard Should You Brush?<\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 Soft bristles are the choice especially if your gums already feel sensitive.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Small controlled movements work well around bonding because you are cleaning close to bonding\u2019s edges without attacking the surface.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 With a brush light pressure is enough. Let the brush move across the teeth than pushing it into them.<\/p>\n<h3>Brush Bonded Teeth Twice a Day<\/h3>\n<p>Keep your brushing routine. Aim for around two minutes each time paying attention to the front and back of the bonded tooth than focusing only on the part you can see in the mirror.<\/p>\n<p>Do not forget the gumline. Plaque around bonding can make the area look dull over time when the bonding itself has not changed.<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t Ignore the Spaces Between Teeth<\/h3>\n<p>Slide the floss gently between the teeth. Curve it around each tooth. Do not snap it down into the gums. If bonding reaches between two teeth take your time around that area of forcing the floss.<\/p>\n<h3>What About Brushing After Eating?<\/h3>\n<p>You do not need to brush after every meal. Your morning and evening routine is enough for most people while rinsing with water after eating can help clear away food when you are out and about.<\/p>\n<p>If you have had something such as a fizzy drink wait before brushing. Give your mouth some time before brushing. Brushing away is not automatically better.<\/p>\n<h3>Keep It Gentle, Not Precious<\/h3>\n<p>Bonded teeth need care, not constant worrying. Brush properly. Clean between your teeth.
