How do i keep my mouth clean and rid it of bad breath?
To keep your mouth clean and free of bad breath, you need to brush your teeth daily, and if possible, after every meal. Gargling with a non-alcohol based mouthrinse after brushing your teeth will also help.

How many times should I brush my teeth daily?
Brush your teeth at least twice daily. Brushing more than three (3) times a day may have adverse effects on your gums.

How should I brush my teeth?
Place your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle against the gumline. Remember to brush gently in light strokes so as not to upset your gums. Follow it up by brushing your teeth inside the mouth.

You should gargle at least twice a day – once in the morning, then before going to sleep – or every after brushing your teeth.

What are the dangers of using alcohol-based mouthwashes?
In the past decade, prolonged use of alcohol-based mouthwash was questioned when the US National Cancer Institute reported that mouthwashes containing 25% alcohol may increase risk of oral and pharyngeal cancers by about 50%. Also, alcohol-based mouthwashes can upset the gums, and taste buds, proving to be counter-productive in terms of keeping the mouth healthy.

Why should I use non-alcohol based mouthwashes?
Alcohol-free mouthwashes are safe to use and even more effective! Choose a mouthwash with Stabilized Chlorine Dioxide. It gets rid of the real source of bad breath by oxidizing anaerobic microbes and odor-causing volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs). It is also patented and proven to effectively and safely eliminate odors and prevent plaque build-up, leaving a real clean, fresh breath.

What do I do if my gums bleed after brushing my teeth?
Remember to brush gently so as not to upset your gums. If your gums continue to bleed after light brushing, consult your doctor.
