That is, the toothbrush is attached to the teeth, and some bristles cover the gingival sulcus at a 45-degree angle and vibrate horizontally for more than 8 times. Then move the position, do not rotate, do not brush back and forth. The strength is about 150g, and the teeth are brushed on three sides for about 3 minutes. Toothbrushes and toothpaste should be changed frequently.
Caution: Don't brush sideways, because it will not only be difficult to penetrate into the gaps of teeth, but also damage the hard tissues and gums of teeth. You shouldn't push too hard.

Tip: Take a piece of dental floss about 45 cm long and wrap both ends around two middle fingers; When cleaning the right upper back teeth, use the right thumb and the left index finger to thread floss through the contact point, and the thumb helps to open the cheeks on the buccal side of the teeth; When cleaning the left upper back teeth, turn the left thumb and the right index finger to hold the thread, as above; When cleaning all the lower teeth, you can hold the thread with two index fingers and press it under the contact point of the teeth, and guide the floss with two index fingers. When using dental floss, pay attention to the back and forth sawing action when there is tension between two teeth. After passing through the contact point, you can gently reach the tooth surface below the contact point and scrape it up and down for 4 ~ 6 times until the tooth surface is clean and you hear a creaking sound, and then repeat it on the other tooth surface. If it is inconvenient for your fingers to hold the thread, you can use the thread holding handle to fix the floss before using it.
