How do I brush a person's teeth?
-
Dr. William Litaker answered:Teeth should be brushed from the gum to the tooth. On the upper teeth, brush down on the front and back of the teeth. On the lower teeth, brush up on the front and back of the teeth. The tops of the teeth should be brushed with a back and forth motion. Be sure to use a soft bristle brush. Your dentist and dental hygienist can help you with proper brushing techniques.
