How to Brush Your Teeth:

Brushing your teeth is an important part of your dental care routine. For a healthy mouth and smile the ADA recommends you:

Brush your teeth twice a day with a soft-bristled brush. The size and shape of your brush should fit your mouth allowing you to reach all areas easily.

Replace your toothbrush every three or f
our months, or sooner if the bristles are frayed. A worn toothbrush won’t do a good job of cleaning your teeth.

Make sure to use an American Dental Association -accepted fluoride toothpaste.

The proper brushing technique is to:

Place your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gums.
Gently move the brush back and forth in short (tooth-wide) strokes.

Brush the outer surfaces, the inner surfaces, and the chewing surfaces of the teeth.

To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and make several up-and-down strokes.

Of course, brushing your teeth is only a part of a complete dental care routine. You should also make sure to:

Clean between teeth daily once a day. Tooth decay-causing bacteria still linger between teeth where toothbrush bristles can’t reach. This helps remove plaque and food particles from between the teeth and under the gum line.

Eat a balanced diet that limits sugary beverages and snacks.

See your dentist regularly for prevention and treatment of oral disease.

How to Brush:

• Place the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gums.

• Move the brush back and forth gently in short strokes.

• Brush the outer surfaces, the inside surfaces and the chewing surfaces of all teeth.

• To clean the inside surface of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and make several up-and-down strokes.

• Brush your tongue to remove bacteria and keep your breath fresh.

How to Clean Your Teeth and Gums There is a right way to brush and floss your teeth. Every day:

■ Gently brush your teeth on all sides with a soft-bristle brush and fluoride toothpaste. Replace your toothbrush every 3 to 4 months.

■ Use small circular motions and short back-and-forth strokes.

■ Brush carefully and gently along your gum line.

■ Lightly brush your tongue or use a tongue scraper to help keep your mouth clean.

■ Clean between your teeth and mouth with dental floss, prethreaded flossers, a water flosser, or a similar product. This removes plaque and leftover food that a toothbrush can’t reach.

■ Rinse after you floss.
