Choosing a Toothbrush

Never before has there been such a dizzying array of toothbrushes on the market. Consumers are inundated with new designs, materials, attachments, and colors. Whatever toothbrush design you choose, the most important thing is that you use the toothbrush at least 2-3 times a day. Moreover, how long you spend brushing your teeth is as critical as how often you brush.  This ensures complete plaque removal in hard to reach areas.

Mechanical and manual toothbrushes

Our dental team highly recommends a mechanical (electric) toothbrush. The pulsations break up plaque efficiently. Many models now have timers to remind you to brush longer.

It is always nice to have a backup manual toothbrush. When choosing a manual toothbrush, look for a compact head with very soft, rounded bristles.

"I have never written a review for any place but I was so impressed with this dentists office.  I hadn't been to the dentist in about 10 years and needed some cavities filled on two front teeth.  Dr. Benke didn't need ex-rays which lowered the cost.  He opted to not use novocaine which surprised me and the drilling didn't hurt at all which also lowered the price.  He had a great sense of humor too.  I will definitely be going back if I need any future work done.  His staff was great also!"
