  • Brush using horizontal movements, and then gently press from the gum towards the tooth to remove all the dirt. Try to do it in the entire mouth without leaving any teeth, so that everyone has complete protection
  • Moving to the back sector of the front teeth, you must clean them one by one, placing the brush vertically and using circular movements. Also, remember to always brush your gums, so that they also remain healthy.
  • After this, brush the grooves of your teeth in each of the directions: from front to back, from back to front and to the sides. To finish brushing, use dental floss to reach all the spaces between your teeth. In addition to cleaning your tongue well.
