A healthy mouth.
No more bleeding gums. No more toothache. No more bad breath. No more worrying about dental treatment. A mouth you can enjoy and rely upon, at every stage of your life. Wouldn’t that be great? As one of the UK's leading dentists, Martin Ashley has successfully guided thousands of people on the pathway to a healthy mouth.

In Your Healthy Mouth, he shares this knowledge with you.

Parents of young children, teenagers starting to look after their own mouths, adults looking for a dentist and then those of us who act as carers for friends and relatives.

A healthy mouth for life.

    How was your business trip, Paul?

    Good thanks. I don’t like being away too much but it was worthwhile. And my tooth didn’t bother me at all, thanks.

    It wasn’t a very big cavity. If you keep it clean enough and eat sensibly, the filling will last for years or even decades and the tooth should last a lifetime.

    Fingers crossed. Are you going to clean my teeth tonight?

    Yes, but first I want spend some time talking about how you can keep your own mouth cleaner. I know you brush your teeth twice a day.

    Usually…

    And you said that you don’t clean in between your teeth, although Sarah suggested you try flossing.

    Yes, she’s so good at it, She just seems to flick it in between each tooth. I’ve tried but my teeth are too close together.

    Flossing is tricky, especially if your teeth are rough with tartar. I want to step back from flossing and teach you a technique somewhere between your toothbrush and dental floss. It is also much simpler than flossing.

    Go ahead Martin - anything for an easy life.

    GUMBRUSHES – THE MISSING LINK

    This chapter is all about a brush that you have probably not seen or heard of. It is called an ‘interspace’ brush. Some people call it a single tufted brush or an outerspace brush !

    GUMBRUSH FOR GUMS

    TOOTHBRUSH FOR TEETH

    As we said earlier, most gum disease and tooth
