How Long Should You Brush?

Fresno Cosmetic Dentistry

Did you remember that brushing and flossing fights bad breath and removes stains?

If you have persistent stains that brushing can’t remove, get your teeth bleached at Mirelez Wellness Dental for a dazzling, stain-free smile.

The American Dental Association recommends two minutes as a minimum time for brushing. Most men and women think they brush that long but would be surprised if they actually set a timer. Most of us only brush for about a minute, if that.

I am Dr. Art Mirelez of Mirelez Wellness Dental. In my office, we practice preventative dentistry by working with our patients to establish essential oral hygiene habits.

If you are looking for a a family dentist in Fresno, I invite you to come meet my welcoming team.

Our address is 5492 North Palm Avenue, Fresno, California. We offer general and restorative dentistry, including cosmetic dentistry and family dentistry.

And here’s a quick cold-fighting tip for my Fresno patients: get a new toothbrush when you catch a cold. A toothbrush teeming with germs can re-infect you!
