Two Minutes, a Day
Brushing for two minutes, twice daily, is key to maintaining oral health. Most people brush for only 45 seconds! Set a timer to ensure you're giving your teeth the attention they deserve.
Twice
Don't Forget the Angles!
Hold your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums. This helps remove plaque. Use gentle, circular motions instead of rough left-and-right strokes to protect your enamel.
The Tongue Deserves Attention Too
Your tongue can harbor bacteria, leading to bad breath. Gently brush your tongue every time you brush your teeth to keep your mouth fresh and healthy.
