How do you effectively prevent plaque/tartar forming on your teeth? (mander.xyz)

My teeth are in good health and I take good care of them, yet I always get this plaque buildup no matter what I try.

I've tried different brushes, toothpastes, and flossing methods to no avail. Mouthwash is too harsh on my mouth and peels my skin off so I avoid that.

I haven't tried waterpicks or electric brushes yet. Did you? Did they work for you? Have you succeeded in preventing plaque and if so, how???

When you start flossing regularly you can taste when you haven’t. That’s the halitosis.
