The Brushing

  • For two minutes, brush your teeth. Be sure to brush in an effective way without harming the gums. Spend an equal amount of time (30 seconds) in each quadrant of the mouth.
  • At a 45 degree angle, hold your toothbrush. It should be pointed towards the gums.
  • In a moving motion, brush all the surfaces of your teeth (surface on top for chewing and the sides).
  • Make sure to brush your teeth twice a day

The Tongue Cleaning

  • If you’re using a traditional tongue scrapper—take both ends of the scrapper in each hand.  Use the middle surface to gently scrape and clean your tongue. Rinse your mouth.
  • If you’re using a toothbrush—put a little bit of toothpaste on your toothbrush and brush your tongue in circular motions. Clean as much of the tongue as you can and then rinse your mouth.
  • If you’re using floss—take a piece of floss and wrap the ends around each finger. Then gently use the middle to scrape and clean your tongue. Finish by rinsing your mouth.
