Use a toothbrush with soft or medium hard bristles. Dispense a pea-sized amount of toothpaste.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Place the bristles at 45 degrees angle to the gums and gently move in small circular motion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Repeat the strokes around 20 times, 3 teeth at a time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Brush all of the surfaces-outer, inner and chewing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Tilt the brush vertically and make up and down strokes to clean the inner surfaces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Oral Care: Flossing Is Equally Important!\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Use floss to clean surfaces and gum spaces between the teeth<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Guide the floss between your teeth using a gentle rubbing motion<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-On reaching the gum line, curve it into a C shape against one tooth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Hold the floss tightly and move the floss away from the gum with up-and-down motions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Repeat with the rest of your teeth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/categories\/personal-care\/oral-care-26?utm_source=emailer_NC&amp;utm_medium=promotional_NC&amp;utm_campaign=dweb\"><b>Get the most out of your brushing efforts with our oral health range.<\/b><b> Shop NOW<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Dental Hygiene Tips<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Here are few golden rules you must follow to maintain a good oral hygiene:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1.\u00a0 Brush at least twice a day-first thing in the morning and just before you go to sleep at night<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Brush no more than 3 times a day. Brushing too often can damage your gums.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Brush for at least 2 minutes. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t rush when you brush.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Clean the tongue to get rid of the odor-producing bacteria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Use a mouth rinse after meals in addition to daily brushing and flossing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Change your toothbrush every 3 months or when the bristles start to flare, whichever comes first.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Try electric toothbrushes which are a fine alternative to manual brushes for people who are not able to use proper brushing techniques or physical limitations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Make sure to cut down on sugary food items. And, don\u2019t forget to visit your dentist every 6 months for regular check-ups. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always remember, healthy mouth matters!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Got more questions?
