I keep a package of the small interdental brushes for plaque control and a mint dental floss in my purse, next to the computer, near the TV and in nighttable drawer. I use them a lot at random times. It’s amazing what you can do if you are alone in the car at a red light or a railroad crossing with a 300-car freight train passing through.
Brushing and flossing are refreshing, but it is amazing how much plaque they do not remove and how often you forget to tickle the gum area and below the gum line/My dentist now has a computer screen that he can demonstrate this on. I sit in the chair, having been a scrupulous patient for 6 months, and then he shows me the particles of plaque remaining between back teach.
Bushing for that fresh minty breath: aftering getting up, just before bedtime and often when I go out.
