Although most of us think that we are brushing your teeth or using flossing enough, it is often full of surprises to see a dentist. Stimulation, tooth decay, gingivitis - our list of diseases continues.

It's always important to go back to the most basic way and make sure you brush your teeth in the right way. There is an important part of your mouth that there are too many people to skip. Sometimes people forget to brush their teeth, forget to brush their teeth, and forget that the surface of the brushing is facing the tongue and the upper jaw. Sometimes people forget these areas because we can't see them when we look in the mirror. Food and plaque build up in these areas, so brushing your teeth there is just as important as brushing your teeth in front of the teeth, which we can easily see.

Brushing time is not long enough (we recommend brushing your teeth at least twice a day for at least two minutes) and the pressure used to brush your teeth is not correct.

Excessive force when brushing your teeth may damage the gums and cause wear on your teeth. Applying too little pressure when brushing your teeth does not effectively remove plaque, nor can you use gentle pressure. In addition, rubbing the toothbrush back and forth for a long time is not as effective as short-term, because short-term friction allows you to get better between the teeth.

“Appropriate pressure” is a feeling of comfortable pressure that does not squeeze the toothbrush bristles (too much pressure) and of course makes the teeth feel clean.The entire mouth takes two minutes to brush – 30 seconds for the upper tooth surface facing the lips and cheeks, 30 seconds for the inner tooth surface, and 30 seconds for the lower teeth – a total of two minutes. You should brush your chews while you are doing it.

Regardless of the technique used, even if you are not as organized as I have described, brushing should touch all internal, external, and chewing surfaces. Soft toothbrushes are recommended because too stiff bristles can damage the gums and may not be flexible enough to remove plaque. Soft hairbrushes are the best, either manual or electric. Choose a toothbrush that feels comfortable in size, it won't be too big and won't fit your teeth side comfortably.

Fluoride-containing toothpaste helps reduce the risk of tooth decay and tooth decay. If someone feels that toothpaste is irritating, then of course it should be avoided. In order to maintain good oral hygiene, we also recommend flossing every day, brushing your teeth, and using interdental cleaners (small tip brushes). Don't forget the inside of your teeth!
