North York Periodontics; Brushing Technique

General Gum CareBrush twice daily using a soft bristle toothbrush. Use the Modified Bass brushing technique (Link to Youtube Video):

  1. Hold the toothbrush such that the bristles are aimed at a 45 degree angle to the tooth and gum line
  2. Use very small circular strokes to remove plaque. Imagine that you are “wiggling” away to get the bristles down between the teeth and under the gum line
  3. Slowly move across all the teeth and repeat the circular strokes
  4. As you return back to the first tooth, roll the head of the brush down and away from your teeth
