How to clean your teeth in 30 seconds? Can you?
Clean your teeth in 30 seconds - said no dental professional - ever! Cleaning teeth and removing the plaque biofilm from teeth and gums takes time. Time well spent for oral health and fresh breath. Have you been tempted to take a short cut and buy one of these 30 second AI brushes? We thought we should test drive one to see if they do actually remove plaque biofilm effectively and thoroughly enough to obtain and maintain oral health.

Use them..... or lose them!
Major dental disease - tooth decay and gum disease are by and large preventable. The key is in our own hands. Brushing teeth twice a day thoroughly, last thing at night and one other time every day with a fluoride toothpaste can clean up to 70% to tooth surfaces and apply the fluoride to strengthen teeth and protect gums. Spit out after brushing but don't rinse all the paste away - let the ingredients in the toothpaste work for longer.
