Oral health is an important key to health, and you must not be careless when flossing or brushing your teeth. A mainland woman has been “brushing her teeth horizontally” for more than 20 years, but she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her mouth recently, and then found a chip in her teeth. The doctor couldn’t help but shook his head and called for brushing her teeth in the correct way.

According to the “Pengpai News” report, a 27-year-old woman surnamed Ding from Foshan City, Guangdong Province has always brushed her teeth horizontally. But when she was brushing her teeth last week, she suddenly felt uncomfortable and unbearable pain in her mouth. When she looked in the mirror, she discovered that There is an obvious small chip in the tooth.

So she decided to go to the hospital for treatment. After examination, the doctor pointed out that the wedge-shaped defect was caused by long-term horizontal brushing. Then he helped Ding Nu have her teeth filled, and specifically told her to brush her teeth in the correct way, otherwise it would only have the opposite effect. .

Experts also recommend that everyone should learn to use the “Better brushing method”. It is recommended to choose a soft-bristled toothbrush to brush your teeth with this method. The steps are as follows: first place the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle at the junction of the gums and teeth, so that the bristles enter the gingival sulcus and extend into the gap as much as possible, and then use gentle pressure, using 2 to 3 teeth as a unit, back and forth from side to side. Brush lightly for about ten times, and finally use dental floss, interdental brushes and other tools to assist cleaning. Each brushing time should be no less than 1 minute, preferably 2 to 3 minutes.
