anyone have any secrets to having great teeth/gums? i don't mean the obvious things, like brush often, floss, use mouthwash, etc,.. but real tips like exact brands of products to use and anything that the avg person doesn't know.

Don't laugh, I have dentures! My son sees a specialist and he has beautiful teeth and gums. This guy recommended brushing with any good toothpaste but only with a Oral B type brush ,then floss with tape type floss, then rince 3 times a day with Listerine mixed with a teaspoon of peroxide. If you get any stains use baking soda on the brush and scrub the stain away. This has worked for him for 20 yearsand his teeth are white and very healthy!
