WHAT IS THE RIGHT WAY TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH?
Daily brushing and cleaning between your teeth is important because it removes plaque
If the plaque isn’t removed, it builds up and can cause tooth decay and gum disease.
You should brush your teeth at least twice a day and toothbrushes should be replaced every 3-4 months, or when the bristles get worn or frayed.
The five steps below show you how to brush your teeth correctly.
- Aim the toothbrush at a 45 degree angle towards the gum line.
- Use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste.
- Use a gentle circular motion.
- Repeat on the inside surfaces.
- Use a light back and forth motion on the chewing surfaces.
Spit out the toothpaste and rinse after brushing.
Electric toothbrushes also do a good job of cleaning teeth.

TESTIMONIAL
I am extremely happy with Dr Kokorev. He saved my tooth from extraction recommended by another dentist, who could not do root canal treatment and offered to removed the tooth. Dr Kokorev did root canal treatment and at a reasonable price. He is very professional, practice is modern, staff helpful. Will come back
Very friendly and professional staff. Alexander is a very experienced dental surgeon. I have been visiting his surgery for 14 years now. All the work that he has done over the years has been of excellent quality. Highly recommend.
Thanks to Dr Kokorev and his timely response to my emergency phone call on Anzac Day! They phoned back and arranged a time for me Thursday. What a relief to have the diagnosis and treatment that day.
Very happy with Dr Alexander. Friend of mine recommended him. I had root canal done here and it was much cheaper than quoted from another St Kilda dentist. I had small injection before the procedure, which was fine and after that the whole procedure was painless. He also cleaned my teeth and did one small filling on another tooth. Good dentist, no nonsense approach. Will come back.
