How to brush your teeth properly
Keep your teeth healthy with just two minutes, two times a day
Brushing your teeth is an important part of oral health care. Here’s how to do it properly:

1. Place the brush on your teeth at an angle of 45° and use small movements. Don’t scrub! |
2. Clean systematically around the mouth. Start with the outside, then the inside; first the upper jaw, then the lower. |
3. Be particularly careful about cleaning the inner surfaces of your teeth. |

| 4. When cleaning the inner surfaces of your incisors, you can hold the toothbrush vertically. |
5. Finally, clean the chewing surfaces of your molars. Here it is OK to scrub. Rinse out and you're done. |
