Brushing How and

Step 1: Wet Your Toothbrush

Wet your toothbrush with warm water to soften the bristles and remove any dust or debris.

Step 2: Apply a Pea-Sized Amount of Toothpaste

Place a pea-sized amount of toothpaste on your toothbrush. Avoid overloading your toothbrush, as this can make it difficult to maneuver and can lead to excessive foaming.

Step 3: Hold the Toothbrush at a 45-Degree Angle

Place the toothbrush against your teeth at a 45-degree angle, with the bristles pointing towards the gum line. This angle helps to dislodge plaque and bacteria from the teeth and gums.

Step 4: Use Short, Gentle Strokes

Use short, gentle strokes when brushing your teeth. Avoid using a sawing or scrubbing motion, as this can damage the enamel on your teeth and irritate your gums.

Step 5: Brush All Surfaces of the Teeth

Brush all surfaces of the teeth, including the front, back, and chewing surfaces. Be sure to brush the inside, outside, and tops of the teeth.

Step 6: Pay Extra Attention to the Back Teeth

The back teeth are often more difficult to reach, so make sure to spend extra time brushing them.

Step 7: Brush in Sections

Divide your mouth into sections and focus on brushing one section at a time. This will help you to ensure that you don't miss any spots.

Step 8: Brush for at Least 2 Minutes

Make sure to brush your teeth for at least 2 minutes, twice a day. This is the amount of time needed to effectively remove plaque and bacteria from the teeth and gums.

Step 9: Rinse Your Mouth Thoroughly

After brushing, rinse your mouth thoroughly with water to remove any toothpaste residue.

Step 10: Brush Your Tongue and Gums

Finally, use your toothbrush to gently brush your tongue and gums. This helps to remove bacteria and debris from these areas and can help to improve your oral health.
