tooth brushing techniques

To brush your teeth effectively, use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Position the brush at a 45-degree angle to your gums. Gently move the brush in circular motions for 2-3 minutes, covering all surfaces—outer, inner, and chewing surfaces—of each tooth. Don’t forget your tongue! Brush twice a day, ideally morning and night. Replace your toothbrush every three to four months, or sooner if the bristles fray. Regular brushing helps remove plaque and prevent cavities and gum disease, contributing to overall oral health. Consider complementing brushing with flossing daily for optimal results.
