Kim’s Korner – June 2017

Everyone wants the cleanest teeth possible. Plaque at and under the gum line can cause gingivitis and eventually periodontal disease. With this in mind, many people are changing to an oscillating – rotating power toothbrush. But will these power brushes cause recession or existing areas to get worse? Worry no more! Recent studies have shown that these power brushes will not cause your gums to recede, in fact, this study showed a reduction in gum recession in some cases which was not only unexpected but also in complete conflict with a prior study.Power toothbrushes have changed in many ways over the years. There are wide varieties of heads, different modes of power, and they are available at prices from about $30-$100 on average.
