The requirements of health care toothbrushes are: the number of rows of hair bundles is not more than three rows, the minimum distance between the holes of hair bundles is not less than 1.5 mm. Nylon wire diameter of not more than 0.3 mm. The brush head is short and narrow, adapted to twist up and down sweeping brush, toothbrush handle is curved or straight, bristles into serrated. Soft-bristled toothbrushes are more effective than hard-bristled toothbrushes in cleaning the tooth surface and are less likely to harm the gums.

Fluoride plays an important role in the prevention of tooth decay in children and adults, and toothpaste is the best source of fluoride. Fluoride can help repair enamel and neutralize acid-producing plaque in the early stages of tooth decay. However, it should be used in moderation, otherwise it can easily cause fluorosis. Choose the right brushing method Dentists remind people to brush their teeth within 3 minutes after eating. More than three times a day to avoid bacteria deposition on the surface of teeth and prevent tooth decay. It is especially important to brush your teeth once at night before going to bed.

That is, the cheek, tongue, occlusal and two adjacent surfaces, it is not easy to brush all these five surfaces, and the correct method is to brush with up and down chattering sweep. Tilt the toothbrush 45 degrees, press it between the tooth surface and the gums, brush the bristles as far as possible into the gum sulcus and between the teeth, then brush vertically along the teeth and gently rotate the brush head, do not use too much force, brush each tooth in order, and brush for three minutes each time. Brush the outer side of the teeth: Brush the outer side of the upper and lower teeth with the correct brushing action and proper angle, brush the upper teeth from top to bottom and the lower teeth from bottom to top, and repeat 6 to 8 times for each position. Brush the inner side of the teeth: When brushing the inner side of the teeth, still follow the principle of brushing vertically and gently rotating along the teeth, do not pay attention to brushing only the outer side of the teeth and not the inner side of the teeth. Brush the chewing surfaces of the teeth: Brush the chewing surfaces of the upper and lower teeth in a forward and backward direction with appropriate force.

Eat healthy teeth 1, strengthen the intake of calcium and phosphorus calcium is the main component of the teeth, the human body calcium intake is sufficient to make the teeth strong. Often eat fruits containing lemon such as lemons, oranges, plums, etc. to help the absorption of calcium. Phosphorus is an indispensable nutrient for strong teeth, and is widely distributed in food, so as long as you don’t have a partial diet, you can get plenty of phosphorus. Vitamin D can promote the body’s absorption of calcium and phosphorus to ensure the healthy development of teeth. In animal liver, cod liver oil are rich in vitamin D, you can take appropriate intake. 2, intake of adequate amount of vitamin C Adequate amount of vitamin C is an important measure to prevent dental disease, if the lack of vitamin C, it may lead to periodontal disease. It must be consumed daily from foods rich in vitamin C. Vegetables contain many trace elements and are rich in vitamin C. They are foods that should not be overlooked for dental care. It is also important to supplement the right amount of fruits such as oranges and lemons every day, and if necessary, add vitamin C tablets to supplement. 3, eat more dietary fiber dietary fiber is widely present in vegetables, coarse grains in the dental care nutrients. Eat more rough foods of appropriate hardness, such as yams, soybeans and other coarse sugar, which contains higher phosphorus than fine grains, can promote the normal development of teeth. 4, drink more mineral water Mineral water meets the body’s demand for fluorine. Fluorine can increase the enamel of the teeth, strong teeth and protect teeth from microbial erosion. Most mineral water contains 0.3 milligrams of fluorine per liter, but there are some that contain up to 8 milligrams per liter. Fluoride is also found in tea, sea fish and certain vegetables (spinach, red-skinned white radish). In addition, you can gargle with tea. 5, away from “soft” food snacks, especially “soft” food, carbohydrate food (candy or sweet drinks, bread, pastries ……) or acidic food (soda, fruit, fruit juice), usually will be the most important. Fruit, fruit juice), usually increase the risk of tooth decay. If possible, clean your teeth carefully after each meal. If there is no condition, rinse your mouth carefully or chew a piece of sugar-free gum.

The World Health Organization recognizes xylitol as one of the safest sweeteners. Experts recommend that it is best to chew xylitol sugar-free gum (sugar-free gum with 50% or more xylitol content) after meals and before going to bed to maintain the pH level in the mouth.
