Carol Jahn answered:The best way to care for your teeth on a daily basis is to brush morning and evening with a fluoridated toothpaste and clean between your teeth once daily. The most recommended way to clean between teeth is with string floss. Unfortunately many people struggle to floss well and unless you can floss at a high level, you won't get the benefits.
