Altogether 52 teeth (20 anteriors, 13 premolars and 19 molars) scheduled for extraction were used for study. Before extraction the teeth were brushed with a medium textured toothbrush applying the modified Bass method with five strokes of proximal cleaning. The lack of professional and proximal cleaning aids makes planimetrically. The following conclusions were drawn: 1. The usual five strokes with a toothbrush are not able to remove old plaque, therefore professional tooth cleaning is necessary. 2. After toothbrushing twice as much plaque remains on the proximal than on the buccal and lingual surfaces. This implies the necessity of proximal cleaning. The lack of professional and proximal cleaning aids makes the establishment of good oral hygiene illusorical.
