There are many dental care products on the market today. The favorite toothbrush at Comfort Dental of Anderson is the Sonicare by Phillips. This brush is equipped with a two minute timer. The Sonicare brush can do in two minutes what it would take you to do in four or six minutes with a manual toothbrush.

Speaking of recommended products, you and your office recommended Crest ProHealth mouthwash. After seeing it in my dorm room, someone told me to Google "Crest ProHealth brown spots," and the article that came up was scary! What's your opinion on this?

I have never seen it! I got the following from the Crest Pro Health Web site "As far as staining, As a class, antimicrobial agents have some potential to form temporary extrinsic tooth stain to varying degrees. Just as some people may be more susceptible to stain from beverages or smoking, some people who use an antimicrobial product may experience temporary tooth discoloration. Unlike stains due to beverages or smoking which can discolor the entire tooth, antimicrobial tooth discoloration occurs in hard to brush areas like between teeth and at the gum line. This tooth discoloration can be reduced or eliminated by using a power brush with a good cleaning toothpaste, such as a tartar control or whitening toothpaste like Crest Pro-Health."
