Using floss or interdental brushes is the best way to clean between your teeth. Floss 8 to 10 strokes, up and down as far as it will go but don’t press hard (so that it hurts) into your gums or you risk damaging your gums. Similarly, use interdental brushes 8 to 10 times between each tooth to dislodge any trapped food and plaque. Where possible, it is better to use interdental brushes to clean between your teeth and use floss if you cannot get a brush into the space.
Floss using interdental brushes once a day before brushing will help to remove plaque and stuck food.
It’s recommended that you use floss, or interdental brushes once per day, followed by brushing with a fluoride toothpaste twice a day, for a least 2 minutes.
If the bristles start to look worn or shabby, if the wire starts to look bent or twisted, we suggest you replace it with a new one
Floss and interdental cleaners are the only way to clean between your teeth. Water flossers are useful as well, but mouthwash isn’t sufficient to remove trapped food and plaque.
Flossing or interdental cleaning before you brush will make brushing more effective as there will be less plaque between your teeth, meaning the fluoride in toothpaste can get to more parts.
There isn’t a right or wrong time to floss or use interdental brushes , we recommend that you clean when you have the most time to ensure you do it properly. For most, that’s a night before bed, which reduced any trapped food before bed, reducing the overnight damage from bacteria.
Using toothpaste or mouthwash on the brush may damage the brushes. You may require a range of different size brushes to clean between different sized spaces between your teeth.
Your hygienist can advise you on the best size brush to use.

Considering facial aesthetics but not sure where to start?
At Evolve, every treatment begins with a consultation - because understanding you is what matters most.
Yasmin will take time to discuss:
• your goals
• your concerns
• whether treatment is the right option for you
For some patients, treatment is appropriate.
For others, it may be something for the future - or not needed at all.
Our approach is always honest, supportive and centred around helping you make the right decision for you.
If you’d like to explore your options, we’re here to help.

“Will my teeth look like a fake Hollywood smile after whitening?”
It’s a question we hear quite often.
In this video, Jessica explains how professional teeth whitening works and why the aim is always to achieve a result that still looks natural.
Whitening lifts staining and brightens your smile, but the final result still reflects the natural colour and character of your teeth.
If you’re thinking about teeth whitening, our team can talk you through the options and help you achieve a brighter, healthy-looking smile.

Why do gums bleed when you brush?
If you’ve noticed your gums bleeding when brushing your teeth, you’re not alone - and it’s usually a sign your gums are inflamed.
In many cases this happens when plaque builds up along the gum line. The gums become irritated and more fragile, which means they can bleed more easily when brushing.
The good news is that with consistent oral hygiene - brushing thoroughly twice a day and cleaning between your teeth - many people notice improvement within a couple of weeks.
However, if the bleeding continues, it’s worth having it checked. Regular bleeding can sometimes indicate gum disease, and an examination at the practice allows us to assess your gum health and give the right advice.
Swipe through to learn why gums bleed and what you can do to improve gum health.
