Oral hygiene

Why is good oral hygiene important?

Daily oral care not only prevents tooth decay and gingivitis but also contributes to your overall well-being. Bacteria in the mouth can affect other parts of your body. A healthy mouth means fresh breath, strong teeth, and healthy gums. Moreover, preventative care saves you money on future dental work.

For people with specific conditions like diabetes, extra attention to oral hygiene is essential. They have an increased risk of gum problems. Our range includes specialized products to meet various care needs. We also offer tailored solutions for the elderly and those who require assistance with their daily routines.

Complete oral care in three steps

Effective oral hygiene consists of three key steps that you perform daily. First, brush your teeth at least twice a day for two minutes. Use a soft to medium toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Second, clean between your teeth with floss or interdental brushes to remove food particles and plaque that your toothbrush can't reach. Third, rinse with mouthwash to fight bacteria and freshen your breath.

For optimal results, replace your toothbrush every three months or sooner when the bristles become worn. Also, pay attention to the correct brushing technique, using small circular motions to reach all tooth surfaces. At Multicare-Centrum.nl, you'll find everything you need for this complete care routine, including multilingual instructions for proper use.

Professional products for home use

Our range of oral hygiene products consists of high-quality products from renowned brands. You'll find electric toothbrushes with various brush heads, water flossers for thorough cleaning between your teeth, and therapeutic mouthwashes for specific oral problems. These professional products were previously only available through dental practices but are now accessible for home use.

For people with sensitive teeth or gums, we offer special soft toothbrushes and mild toothpastes without irritants. We also have a separate range for children, featuring cheerful designs and appropriate fluoride levels. We also offer tools such as tongue scrapers and oral irrigators that contribute to complete oral care.

Oral hygiene in special situations

Certain situations require specialized oral care. For example, after dental work, you need gentle care products that support the healing process. For people with braces, there are special brushes and floss that effectively clean around brackets and wires. Moisturizing mouth sprays and gels can help with dry mouth, which is a common side effect of medication .

We also offer practical solutions for professional healthcare providers and informal caregivers. These include disposable oral care sets, mouth sponges for bedridden patients, and special toothbrushes with adapted handles for people with limited hand function. All these products are available from stock and delivered discreetly packaged.

Frequently asked questions about oral hygiene

How often should I replace my toothbrush?

Replace your toothbrush every three months or sooner if the bristles are spread out. If you're ill, it's wise to use a new toothbrush immediately after recovery to prevent re-infection.

Is electric brushing better than manual brushing?

Electric toothbrushes can remove plaque more effectively, especially for people with limited motor skills. However, the most important thing is proper brushing technique and sufficient brushing time, regardless of the type of toothbrush.

Can I use mouthwash instead of flossing?

Mouthwash is a good supplement, but not a replacement, for flossing. Flossing removes food particles and plaque between teeth that mouthwash can't reach.
