Brush Better, Not More Often

If dealt with early enough, plaque can be eliminated with thorough brushing. This eliminates both the stains absorbed and the plaque itself, which if left untreated can harden and turn into a much more serious dental problem.

However, frequent brushing alone isn't going to solve your problem. Instead, you need to make sure you're brushing well. Most experts agree that it's only really necessary to brush around two times per day, but those sessions can't be rushed. At least one of those per day should last for two minutes, to make sure you clean off all the plaque and buildup.
