- Place the bristles of your toothbrush at the margin of the gums, establishing a 45 degree angle.
- Using gentle vibratory pressure and short back-and-forth motions without dislodging the tip of the bristles make about 20 strokes in the same position.
- Do the same thing around the arch, brushing around three teeth at a time.
- Now, move onto the inner surfaces of the teeth. To help reach the inner surfaces of the front teeth, insert the brush vertically.
- Press the bristles firmly onto the chewing surfaces of the teeth and brush with about 20 back-and-forth strokes.
