Philips Sonicare
9000 Series

$369.00

Available atShaver ShopOnline

Why We Recommend It

The diamond clean of electric toothbrushes — and it earns the title. Available with a small, soft bristle head that reaches where others simply don't, it cleans with a precision that shows up in the chair. We see it consistently: patients who make the switch extend their professional clean from six months to twelve. This is an exceptional investment into your oral health.

DSmile Toothpaste
#02 Daily Essentials

DSmile
Toothpaste

$14.00

Available atOnline — DSmile

Why We Recommend It

Most toothpastes share similar ingredients. D Smile comes in a minimal, easy-to-use tube that holds its shape and doesn't make a mess. Importantly, it doesn't contain sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), an ingredient that can be drying and irritating to soft tissue. It leaves the teeth feeling super polished, however the one downside is the taste. For picky patients, we recommend one of their flavoured options or another brand.

Ruscello Dental Floss
#03 Daily Essentials

Ruscello
Dental Floss

$8.50

Available atIn PracticeOnline

Why We Recommend It

This brand is the boss of floss. It really grips debris and gently removes it from between the teeth — far more effectively than standard waxed alternatives. It also comes in colourful, fun dispensers that make it genuinely enjoyable to use. A small thing, but it matters when building habits.

Piksters
Interdental Brushes

$12.00

Available atIn Practice

Why We Recommend It

There are many brands on the market, but this is one of the originals — and in our opinion, the design hasn't been bettered. Piksters come in a wide range of sizes to suit different gap widths, and have small, easy-to-use handles that make daily use feel effortless.

Waterpik Ultra Plus
Water Flosser

$220.00

Why We Recommend It

The feedback we receive on this device is sensational — and some patients feel it has genuinely been life-changing. A high-pressure water pulse delivers a deep clean between teeth and along the gumline that's been shown to reduce plaque levels significantly. Used alongside floss, it offers the most thorough at-home clean possible.

Mouthrinse.

Aesop
Mouthrinse

$31.00

Available atOnline — Aesop

Why We Recommend It

Mouthrinse is one of the most misunderstood products in the oral hygiene aisle. It helps to draw a clear distinction: therapeutic rinses — chlorhexidine-based, hydrogen peroxide, sodium bicarbonate, analgesic, antiseptic, and probiotic formulas — exist for specific clinical indications and short-term use under guidance. They are not everyday products. The primary purpose of a long-term, daily mouthrinse is fresh breath, and for that, formulation matters enormously. Rinses high in alcohol or menthol can be genuinely irritating to oral soft tissues — in practice, we see epithelial sloughing of the cheek lining in patients using high-alcohol products regularly. There is also evidence that alcohol in mouthrinse acts synergistically with smoking to elevate oral cancer risk, which is a concern we take seriously. Aesop's mouthrinse cuts through all of this cleanly. A low-irritant daily rinse with natural flavourings that the mouth genuinely responds well to. We love the taste.

Best For Daily fresh breath without tissue irritation
