How to brush your teeth without hurting your gums?

1, vertical brush method

That is, the tip of the toothbrush hair bundle is placed at the junction of the gum and the crown, and slightly pressurized along the direction of the teeth. Brush down when brushing the upper teeth, brush up when brushing the lower teeth, and brush both the inside and outside of the teeth and the occlusal surface. Brush in the same place several times. This method can effectively eliminate dental plaque and soft dirt, and can stimulate the gums to keep the shape of the gums normal.

2. Vibration method

It means that when brushing teeth, the bristles make an angle of 45 degrees with the teeth, so that part of the bristles enter the gap between the gums and the tooth surface, and the other part extends into the teeth to vibrate back and forth for a short distance. When brushing the occlusal surface, the bristles should be placed flat on the tooth surface and vibrate back and forth for a short distance. You can brush 2-3 teeth on each part. Brush the inside and outside of the teeth. Although this method is also a horizontal brush, it basically vibrates horizontally at the original position because it is a short-distance horizontal brush. Compared with a large-scale horizontal brush, it will not damage the neck of the teeth, and it is not easy to damage the gums.

3, physiological brushing method

Refers to the tip of the toothbrush hair touching the surface of the teeth, and then brushing your teeth gently in the direction of the gums. This method is similar to the slight stimulation of food through gums, which promotes blood circulation of gums and helps to keep periodontal tissue healthy.

In short, brush your teeth gently, not too hard, and repeatedly. Brush every side of your teeth, especially the last molar. Be sure to put the toothbrush in for brushing. If the above methods are combined, the effect will be better. Every time you brush your teeth, if you feel uneasy, you can also look in the mirror to see if it is clean. Only by taking it seriously can we ensure the effect of brushing our teeth.
