Dentists and dental associations worldwide overwhelmingly recommend the brushing technique called the Bass Method. This method consists of always brushing away from the gum line (i.e., from gum to tooth). This ideal movement effectively removes plaque and provides a healthy massage to the gums. This promotes optimal blood circulation and avoids separating the gums away from the teeth and pushing food particles under the gum line (one of the main causes of gingivitis).

Although healthy and effective, this method is often very hard to follow with a manual toothbrush and virtually impossible with most power toothbrushes.

The Dental Revolution™’s patented technology was developed to strictly comply with the Bass Method, the brushing technique universally recommended by dentists and dental associations world wide.

Why it is important to brush regularly following the Bass Method

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), dental cavities are reaching epidemic proportions.

Dental cavities are caused by the accumulation of dental plaque and the presence of germs in the oral cavity, mainly resulting from normal food intake.

Brushing after every meal is one of the fundamental principles of dental hygiene. The objective of brushing is to remove dental plaque in order to prevent the formation of cavities and the development of gum problems.

Over time, plaque turns into tartar which becomes sharp and attacks the gums and the epithelial attachment (the joint between the tooth and the gum). This attack on the epithelial attachment causes an infection of the gums (gingivitis), which, if not treated, can cause chronic gingivitis (the loss of gingival or bony matter).

The Bass Method action of always brushing from gum to tooth, protects the epithelial attachment and avoids separating the gums from the teeth and driving impurities below the gum line.
