EXCELLENT
Awesome! You should be seeing clean teeth and healthy gums. Keep doing what you’re doing.

GOOD
You’re almost acing it. You might see redness or swelling of your gums around a few teeth. Keep doing what you’re doing to get even better.

AVERAGE
You’re getting there. You might see some redness or swollen gums. Keep on brushing, flossing, and rinsing.

NOT SO GOOD
Could make your treatment take longer. You might see plaque, chalky white spots on your teeth, or swollen gums. Be sure to brush twice a day, floss at least once a day, and use your rinse.

POOR
Alert! You probably see plaque; chalky white spots on your teeth; and/or swollen, bleeding gums. Review the correct way to brush, floss, and rinse.
