Are you brushing correctly?

Did you know that two minutes twice a day can save you from bad breath, cavities, and gum disease?

That's right. IF you brush correctly twice a day, you can prevent bacteria from causing all pain, cavities, and infections in your mouth.

Let's learn how to brush from Dr. Ruchi on this video from the American Dental Association

• Place your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gums. 
• Gently move the brush back and forth in short (tooth-wide) strokes. 
• Brush the outer surfaces, the inner surfaces, and the chewing surfaces of the teeth.
• To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and make several up-and-down strokes.
• Brush your tongue to remove bacteria and keep your breath fresh.
