1. Make sure you’ve got a good brush.
Cheap brushes are just as good as the expensive ones, but make sure you’ve got an ADA-approved brush that’s fairly fresh. Replace your toothbrush every few months.
2. Don’t use too much pressure.
To get the right amount of pressure, try holding your toothbrush between your forefinger and thumb. Don’t use the rest of your hand, or you’ll be tempted to press too hard.

3. This can wear down the enamel on your teeth.
4. Time yourself while you brush.
5.Don’t forget to floss, but don’t worry about the mouthwash.
Flossing is just as important as brushing, so get into the habit of flossing every day. Mouthwash can make your breath smell better, but it’s usually not considered important for your health (unless you have a prescription mouthwash).
