Helpful Tips That Will Boost Your Tooth Brushing Routine

Are you stuck in a tooth-brushing rut? Maybe you’ve been dashing through your dental routine, giving your pearly whites a mere 30-second swish. It’s time to hit refresh on your oral hygiene habits! That’s why we wanted to share a few ways you can upgrade your tooth brushing routine: 

  • Don’t rinse after brushing. Why? It’s all about the fluoride. Rinsing your mouth will washes away this cavity-fighting ingredient. Instead, just spit out the excess and let the fluoride do its work.
  • Aim for a full two minutes of brushing. That’s the length of your favorite short song!
  • Angle for Success: Hold your brush at a 45-degree angle to your gums for optimal cleaning.
  • Be gentle. Use soft, circular motions. No need for aggressive scrubbing!
  • Don’t forget your tongue. It’s a bacteria playground – give it a gentle brush too.
