What Is Dental Home Care?

Dental home care is all about the daily habits you practice between dental visits. Brushing, flossing, rinsing... it might sound basic, but it’s what keeps bacteria from turning your mouth into a battleground.

Why Dental Home Care in Tukwila, WA Matters

Think of it like regular oil changes for your car. Skip it, and things go south fast. With daily care, you avoid decay, bad breath, and gum disease before they ever start.

Poor oral hygiene has been linked to heart disease, diabetes, and other serious conditions. Taking care of your mouth helps protect your whole body.

The 3 Pillars of Dental Home Care

1. Brushing

  • Twice a day
  • Two minutes per session
  • Soft-bristled brush
  • Fluoride toothpaste

Tip: Brush like you’re cleaning delicate glass—gentle, thorough, and consistent.

2. Flossing

  • Once daily
  • Hug each tooth in a “C” shape
  • Don’t snap—glide!

Skipping floss is like showering but skipping the shampoo. Incomplete and ineffective.

3. Rinsing

A good antimicrobial rinse helps reduce bacteria and freshens breath. Think of it as the final polish on your oral hygiene routine.

Common Home Care Mistakes to Avoid

  • Brushing too hard
  • Forgetting the tongue
  • Skipping flossing 
  • Using an old toothbrush
  • Chewing on ice or hard candies
