Brushing

There are many people in the world who don't know how to brush their teeth the right way says a dentist in Hamilton. If one brushes their teeth the wrong way it can actually cause problems in the mouth with the gums and teeth. When brushing too hard the gum line begins to recede this can cause tooth loss later on in life. It can also wear down the teeth quickly causing spaces to be formed in the teeth. The best thing to do is learn how to do it the right way.

The right way to brush your teeth is to brush using a circular motion and applying little pressure, especially if you use an electric toothbrush. Electric toothbrushes do the circular motion alone and it’s unnecessary to brush with force. It’s also important to use a toothbrush that has the brushes softer so your teeth aren’t hurt or damaged. When brushing, it’s also wise to tilt the toothbrush at a 45 degree angle and brush for about 2-3 minutes. 

The dentist in Hamilton always gives a toothbrush to his patients after a dental check up. After he gives the toothbrush to his patients, he then gives them a rough explanation like the one given above about the right way to brush the teeth. If one brushes their teeth the right way, one can keep their teeth healthy for a life time.
