The Two Minutes That Actually Matter

By Regency Dental Group

Two minutes can feel short… unless you’re brushing your teeth.

Dentists recommend brushing for a full two minutes twice a day because it helps remove more plaque and bacteria from every surface of your teeth.

Helpful trick: play a favorite song while brushing. Just maybe not one you’ll get stuck in your head for the next six hours.

Healthy teeth and a personal concert? Efficient.
