Therefore, only the correct brushing posture can brush many faces in different areas of teeth. Tilt the toothbrush 45 degrees to the root of the tooth, put it on the edge of the gum, and gently press it to let the bristles enter the gingival sulcus. For each division of teeth, move the toothbrush back and forth at least 10 times, and then move to the next division. When brushing the lingual surface and palatal side of the anterior teeth, the toothbrush is placed vertically, and the intensity is moderate from the gum to the crown. When brushing the chewing surface of teeth, put the toothbrush on the chewing surface and move it back and forth.
