NOT BRUSHING LONG
ENOUGH

Gentry Gonzalez and other dentists
agree that it is best to brush your teeth
between 2-3 minutes.

POOR TECHNIQUE
![Page 7: Do You Think You Brush Your Teeth the Right Way?](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100605/559b34061a28ab49638b46aa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Proper Technique1. Angle your brush at a 45 degree angle.
2. Brush your teeth with short strokes (vertical or circular) up
and down.

STARTING IN THE SAME
PLACE

Stop that habit!Start in different places so that the last portion of
your teeth will not suffer from your lazy technique.

SKIPPING INNER TOOTH
SURFACES

The area that is often overlooked.
See to it that each time you brush, spend equal time
on exterior, inner and tops of your teeth.

RINSE YOUR TOOTHBRUSH
AFTER
![Page 13: Do You Think You Brush Your Teeth the Right Way?](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100605/559b34061a28ab49638b46aa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Keep the bacteria away!After brushing, flip the water on, rinse your brush for
a few seconds and leave it to dry until next use.
