Have you tried changing your brushing technique? From my time working in a dentist's office as an assistant, its usually the brushing technique that most people get wrong. You're supposed to focus on where the teeth and gums meet.

I recommend the first 2 from the link above. They're the most similar to how most people already brush their teeth so its an easy transition. The only real difference is you angle your toothbrush 45ยฐ away from the surface of your teeth. Doesn't matter if you angle it up or down.
Thanks for that, short and informative. I've never had a dentist suggest brushing my front teeth at an angle, only molars and premolars. Cheers
