How to Properly Brush Your Teeth
- Brush for at least 2 minutes – Brush twice a day, in the morning and at night.
- Brush all surfaces – Brush the outer, inner, and chewing surfaces of your teeth.
- Use fluoride toothpaste – use a toothpaste with at least 1,350 parts per million (ppm) fluoride.
- Replace your toothbrush – Replace your toothbrush every 4-5 months or when it shows wear. You should also replace it after you’ve been sick
- Use a soft-bristled brush: A small-headed brush with medium-textured bristles is ideal.
