Let's admit it, most of us aren't cleaning our teeth properly. Let's learn what is the right way to brush our teeth.
Toothpaste
Let's begin with toothpaste. You might want to read the ingredients label of your toothpaste to see if it contains fluoride as it protects the tooth enamel.
Step 1
Firstly, you will need to wet your toothbrush. Instead of going overboard with the toothpaste, use only a size amount.
Step 2
Instead of straight strokes, make circular strokes at the 45° angle. Use this method for your frontal teeth.
Step 3
Make straight swipes for your back molars. Make sure to clean them from above as well as the side.
Step 4
Now, it is the time to clean the back of your front teeth, which we usually don't see. Hold your toothpaste upside down to get to the surface.
Step 5
Don't forget your tongue. You can use the back or front of your toothpaste to eliminate the bacteria on your tongue.
Step 6
Lastly, seal the deal with a rinse. Use salt water to rinse your mouth on alternate days. It can prevent plaque buildup.
Conclusion
It is also important to use the right toothbrush, such as one with soft and flexible bristles. Replace it once it wears out.
