Decay below the gumline generally occurs as we get older. Often we are taking medications that can caue dry mouth and the saliva is a great protectant. Usually the diet and dry mouth cause the most decay. You need to angke the brush at a 45 degree angle an dfeel the toothbrush under the tissue and gently do circles. An electric toothbrush is 5 x better then a manual one.
