Watching people brush their teeth on movies or TV in Toronto can really make doctors angry.
Andrea JohnstonA Toronto-
Johnstone, with a shiny smile, said that the techniques presented are often the methods that dental professionals warn their patients not to use.
"They usually scrub.
It is the brushing method of brushing back and forth.
Sometimes even on toothpaste ads.
In fact, it drives me crazy. "She admitted.
This is an example of a common problem.
Everyone thinks they know how to brush their teeth.
Heck, this is one of the first skills we learned when we were young and one of the skills we used --or should use —
Live at least twice a day.
But a lot of people don't actually use the right brushing technique that causes tooth decay, tartar build-up, and gum disease.
What did we do wrong?
Experts say the most common disadvantages are related to the movements and length of time we use each time we brush our teeth.
"The trend is that people are brushing their teeth too fast and actually don't need to spend 2 to 3 minutes cleaning their teeth," said Dr.
Peter Doig, president of the Canadian Dental Association.
Some people drive automatically when they put their toothbrushes in their mouths.
Up and down or back and forth, they will quickly browse around the teeth, spit, rinse, and then finish with it.
To effectively remove the plaque, Doig said
Bacterial membranes that accumulate on teeth after eating foods containing sugar and starch-
You need to concentrate.
Every time, every tooth.
Neither Doig nor Johnstone recommend a particular toothbrush.
"It's not a wand, it's a magician," said Doig . ".
But both of them say you should be soft.
The Bristled brush can remove plaque safely without damaging the gums. That area —
Where the teeth touch the gums
Is the key part of the teeth to focus on.
That's where the plaque is piled up.
If it is not removed, it will form tartar and will not be removed by brushing your teeth normally.
"The goal is to get it before it gets hard," Johnstone said . ".
This is because when tartar builds up, it enters below the gum line and erodes the bones that support the teeth.
As bacteria cause gum decay, more teeth are exposed to the roots, aggravating the problem of bone erosion.
In order to stop the process from the beginning, Johnstone said you need to put the brush hair angle of the toothbrush at 45-
The angle at which the gums meet the teeth.
Relax the plaque with a gentle round massage action, then flick the brush up (
Or down, if you work on the upper teeth)
Remove the plaque.
"So basically, it's just a swing on the gum line, and then brush the plaque off the gum line with a brush," she said . ". Easy does it.
"A lot of people think they need to brush their teeth," Johnstone said . ".
"What could happen in the end is that we are starting to see areas of gum decay.
So they started brushing their teeth.
"We want to focus on removing plaque gently and effectively, rather than removing the gums.
It took me half a day to try to transplant my gums back to humans. . . .
Brushing your teeth properly can avoid many of these situations.
"Doig says it's important to remember to brush every tooth and every exposed surface.
People usually brush their teeth very well, he says, but maybe spend too little time inside each tooth
Or inside the teeth.
People may also forget to brush their teeth, which should be part of everyday life, he said.
A large number of bacteria are covered on the tongue, which may be the cause of oral illness or poor tone.
Johnstone recommended tongue scraper
A small plastic device that can run on the surface of the tongue to remove the film.
Yes, she knows that treating your tongue triggers a gag reflex.
"I found the tongue scraper a little better for the tongue scraper.
But it will still make you gag.
But you have to go through it.
Fresh Breath is worth it.
"Johnstone and Doig provide some precautions in oral hygiene: brush at least twice a day.
It's better to brush your teeth after each meal. • Don't hurry.
It takes two to three minutes to brush your teeth every time.
Use the timer or pay attention to the timer function of the electric toothbrush.
Johnstone suggested, or brush a song on the radio.
Use fluoride toothpaste.
Change your toothbrush every three months or so.
• Do not share toothbrush.
Do dental floss at least once a day.
This is the only way to clean the surface of the teeth.
Floss before brushing your teeth.
• Do not use stiffness-
Bristles.
If you are not sure about your brushing technique, please let your dentist or health specialist tell you how to brush your teeth properly.
Canadian journalists watching people brush their teeth on movies or TV will really irritate doctors.
