Four Steps to Brushing Your 
Teeth Properly


Introduction
You’ve heard your entire life that you need to brush twice and floss every 
day.  But have you ever stopped to consider if you are brushing correctly? 
As it turns out, there are bad ways to brush as well as recommended 
ways. 


Steps to Brushing Your Teeth 
Properly
If you want to have a successful dental check up and healthy teeth, 
use these tips to help you get there:

•  Pick the Right Brush

•  Pick the Right Toothpaste

•  Move the Right Way

•  Keep Brushing!

•  Finish With Floss


 Pick the Right Brush

If you think that large, hard bristled toothbrush you got from your last 
dentist is the right fit for you, think again. Your enamel deserves to be 
treated gently. Pick a soft bristled brush of a medium size to get the 
most effective cleaning. 


 Pick the Right Toothpaste
There are a ton of options at the grocery store: mint, striped, whitening, 
tartar control, complete care, etc… Check for an ADA approved 
toothpaste, especially if you’re looking for a whitening brand.  
Otherwise, a complete care brand will help keep your teeth clean and 
your breath fresh.


 Move the Right 
WaySave your across motions for the bite surface of your teeth, paying close 

attention to the back of your molars.  An up and down or circular motion 
at about a 45 degree angle is the best way to brush the fronts and backs 
of your teeth.


 Keep Brushing!
Think your 30 second brush is sufficient? Think again.  Brushing helps 
to eliminate bacteria that cause cavities and bad breath. But in order 
to really do the job, you need to keep brushing for 2 whole minutes!
 


 Finish With Floss
Every time you brush, you should floss as well. Use a length of floss 
or an individual flosser to get between teeth.  Floss cleans the spaces 
between teeth and the space between your teeth and gums.


Keeping your teeth healthy is not a difficult task, and we hope that 
these suggestions help you. When you come in for your six month 
appointment, you’ll see a difference. If you haven’t scheduled your 
next check up, contact Pier Dental Centre to set an appointment.
