Use an electric toothbrush
Electric toothbrushes are the most effective way of cleaning your teeth and stop you brushing too hard.
Brush twice a day
Brush every morning and just before bed for at least two minutes. Stop after three minutes to prevent wearing the teeth away.
Clean between the teeth
Use interdental brushes or floss at least once a day to prevent a build-up of plaque between the teeth.
Use a manual brush right
Electric is best, but if you use a manual brush, place it at 45-degree angle towards the gum and use small circular motions that cover all exposed areas.
Apply the right pressure
Brushing too vigorously can wear down the enamel, but too gently will fail to remove plaque.
Brush through bleeding gums
Bleeding gums may be off-putting, but they will eventually become less inflamed and healthier.
Swish around a mouthwash
Use a nonalcoholic fluoride-containing mouthwash after every brush. Avoid rinsing with water as this washes toothpaste away.
. Rinse with coconut oil
This helps to remove plaque and bacteria from between the teeth. Be careful with whitening kinds of toothpaste
Opt for natural ingredients such as calcium carbonate and silica.
Get friendly with your dentist
Make sure to have a check-up every six months to remove the damage you cannot undo yourself.
