Two Minutes Can Transform Oral Health

We all agree that brushing for the recommended two minutes, twice a day, is one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve oral health. Yet many people cut their brushing time short — reducing the benefits of their daily routine.

Brushing for the full two minutes can help to:

• Reduce plaque and prevent gum disease
• Strengthen enamel and protect against decay
• Support overall long-term oral health
