🪥 Step 1: Brush Properly (Twice a Day)

  • Use a fluoride  toothpaste
  • Brush for 2 full minutes
  • Focus on:
    • Back teeth (where cavities often start)
    • Gum line
    • Tongue (for bacteria)

👉 Don’t rush—technique matters more than force.

🧵 Step 2: Floss Daily

  •  Floss at least once per day
  • Gently slide between each tooth
  • Curve the  floss around the tooth to remove hidden plaque

👉 This removes what your toothbrush can’t reach.

🚿 Step 3: Rinse (Optional but Helpful)

  • Use an antibacterial mouthwash
  • Or rinse with warm salt water occasionally

👉 Helps reduce bacteria and inflammation.
