The child's teeth are not so hard and his gums are tender. Therefore, in order to protect children's teeth and gums, we can soak the toothbrush in warm water for 1 min before using it, so that the bristles of the toothbrush will become soft.
Ensure the time to brush your teeth.
When brushing your child's teeth, you must let your child brush his teeth at least twice a day, preferably three times, for more than three minutes each time, and brush each part for more than 100 times, so as to ensure the health of teeth and reduce the number of visits to dentists.
Brush inside and outside first.
When we teach children to brush their teeth, we should tell them the order of brushing their teeth. For example, we can brush the outside of the teeth first, and we need to put the toothbrush on the edge of the teeth and move it up and down. Don't pay too much attention to avoid damaging the gums.
Then brush the inside of the front teeth.
After brushing the teeth on both sides, the fourth step is to brush the inside of the front teeth. At this time, the toothbrush should be used upright, and the upper front teeth should be brushed from top to bottom, and the lower front teeth should be brushed from bottom to top with moderate strength.
Brush the inside of two teeth.
When brushing the outside of the child's teeth, brush the inside of the teeth, and the inside should also be brushed from both sides. The inner teeth on both sides may not be well controlled by the child's hands. You can slow down or show them the action.
Brush the outside of the front teeth again.
After brushing the outside of two teeth, brush the outside of the front teeth. The front teeth should be brushed with a combination of horizontal brush and vertical brush, and each brush is a group of two teeth, which are stirred into an "M" shape or a "W" shape.
Finally, brush the chewing surface.
After brushing the inside of the teeth and going out, you should teach your child to brush the chewing surface of the teeth, which is also divided into two sides. The method of brushing the chewing surface of teeth should be left and right, not up and down like front teeth.
