What Are the Best Tips for Tooth Brushing?

The electric toothbrush is a toothbrush invented by Philippe-Guy Woog. The high-frequency vibration of the brush head is caused by the rapid rotation or vibration of the motor core, which instantly breaks down the toothpaste into fine foam, which cleans the teeth deeply. It can promote blood circulation in the oral cavity and has a massage effect on gum tissue.

The electric toothbrush is a toothbrush invented by Philippe-Guy Woog. The high-frequency vibration of the brush head is caused by the rapid rotation or vibration of the motor core, which instantly breaks down the toothpaste into fine foam, which cleans the teeth deeply. It can promote blood circulation in the oral cavity and has a massage effect on gum tissue.

Electric toothbrush has set off a game abroad

In 1954, the Swiss doctor Philippe-Guy Woog invented the electric toothbrush. Sixty years later, the current electric toothbrush is actually very similar to this predecessor.

In principle, there are two main types of electric toothbrushes: rotation and vibration. Rotary toothbrushes are simple in principle, that is, the motor drives the circular brush head to rotate, which enhances the friction effect while performing ordinary tooth brushing. Abrasion is large, it is not recommended for long-term use. Vibration type toothbrushes are more complicated and more expensive in terms of price. There is an electrically driven vibration motor inside the vibration type toothbrush, which can cause the brush head to generate high-frequency swing perpendicular to the direction of the brush handle, but the amplitude of the swing is small, generally about 5 mm above and below, the largest swing in the industry is Mm. When brushing, on the one hand, the high-frequency swinging brush head can efficiently complete the action of washing the teeth. On the other hand, more than 30,000 vibrations per minute can cause a large number of tiny bubbles in the toothpaste and water mixture in the mouth. Pressure can penetrate deep into the teeth to clean dirt.

There are three movement modes of the electric toothbrush brush head: one is a reciprocating linear motion of the brush head, the other is a rotary motion, and a complete set of electric toothbrushes with two types of brush heads. The bristles of the toothbrush head are made of soft plastic fibers, and the ends are processed into a spherical shape, which will not damage the teeth and gums, and will not affect the brushing effect. Not only can each tooth be cleaned, but also it can massage the gums. The toothbrush handle has a strong and weak switching mode switch, which can be selected according to personal needs.

First consider whether the size of the electric brush head is suitable. Children and adults have different electric brush heads. Choose the brush head that suits you according to your personal habits, opening degree, mouth size and other factors. There are also bristles on the toothbrush. Some people like softer and harder ones. Choose the right brush head according to personal preference.

1. Install the brush head and put the brush head tightly into the toothbrush shaft until the brush head is engaged with the metal shaft.

2. Adjust the softness of the bristles with warm water: warm water: soft; cold water: moderate; ice water: slightly hard. It is strongly recommended for first-time users to soak in warm water (below 40 ) before using it! The bristles after soaking in warm water are very soft and feel very comfortable to brush. After 2 to 5 times of habit, the softness of the bristles will be determined by your preference.

3. How to squeeze toothpaste: Can be used with toothpaste of any brand. Align the toothpaste vertically with the middle of the bristles and squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste. To avoid splashing toothpaste, it is best to squeeze the toothpaste before turning on the power.

4. How to effectively brush your teeth: When brushing, put the brush head in the thinnest incisor. Let the teeth be pulled back and forth with moderate force between the bristles. After the toothpaste is foamed, turn on the electric switch. After the brush head vibrates, use moderate force to move the toothbrush back and forth from the front teeth to the back teeth to clean all teeth! In general, using an electric toothbrush to clean your teeth takes only two minutes at a time.

5. How to use a tongue scraper: After brushing your teeth, it is best to use the tongue scraping edge on the back of the brush head to remove the tongue.

Electric toothbrush

When using an electric toothbrush, pay attention to the following details:

1. Do not place the electric toothbrush in a high temperature place or in the sun for a long time, so as to avoid deformation and bending of the bristles due to high temperature;

2. Wash the toothbrush thoroughly after each use, and remove the water as much as possible. Put the toothbrush head up in a mouthwash cup, or place it in a well-ventilated place to dry and sterilize it.

3. If conditions permit, you can purchase 2 or 3 toothbrushes for rotation at the same time, so that the drying time of the toothbrush is prolonged. This is especially important for people with gingivitis and periodontitis. In addition, the rotation can also maintain the elasticity of the bristles;

4. The old toothbrush whose bristles have spread or curled and lost its elasticity must be replaced in time, otherwise it is not good for teeth and gums;

5. The toothbrush should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected once a week;

6. Toothbrushes cannot be used together to prevent mutual infection.
