Floss before brushing // According to this study, when participants used floss before brushing their teeth, the amount of accumulated tartar was significantly smaller than in the group that made the opposite sequence. Use floss at least once a day, but the ideal would always be before washing your teeth. After making this habit part of your routine, you won't want anything else.  We like of this, which is natural and without toxins that can change the hormonal system. 

The 2 minute timer // Most electric toothbrushes have a two -minute predefined timer, but if you are brushing manually, use your phone timer to make sure that brush at least this time (it will be admired)

Pretend you are in the dentist and follow the same pattern they use, 30 seconds in each area of ​​the mouth (upper right, upper left, lower right, lower left). Pass about 5 seconds in each tooth, allowing the toothbrush to polish on the front, back and surface of the molars.

Be delicate // Be careful with the brush near the gums; It is important to slide gently when passing this sensitive zone. Especially if you tend to hold on the brush firmly. If you are using an electric brush, remember that it was created to do the work by you, so that you do not have to move your hand in the traditional standard, as you would with a manual option. Just put it in the desired zone and let it make your magic.

Don't forget hidden zones  // Yes, molars also need good polishing twice a day. Pass your toothbrush right back to remove any more hidden plate situation. You should always do a good tongue cleaning to be sure of removing all the dirt. 

The power to make it ... // It's not a replacement for the daily use of floss, let alone brushing your teeth, but if it's in a situation where it's all you have, of course, cheek well. Although most formulas help kill bacteria, the main use is to mask bad breath. Some elixirs eliminate even beneficial ingredients of toothpaste that help strengthen tooth enamel when used directly after brushing. Therefore, if it is intended to incorporate net cleaning into your daily oral hygiene routine, wait at least an hour after brushing to do the oral elixir.

AND Oil Pulling? // Oil Pulling is the act of passing a tablespoon of oil In the mouth for a few minutes, being careful to "push it" through the teeth and massage the gums with the elixir. In Ayurveda, it is believed to have a detoxifying effect, literally removing oil-soluble toxins through the delicate blood vessels of the mouth tissues. It is preferable to use the elixir Before brushing, using floss or any kind of cleaning so you can release bacteria, toxins and bacterial plate in preparation for your normal oral hygiene routine.

 Ok, so far here is the order: flipping with oil (if desired), flossing, brushing (for two minutes), waiting and then using an oral elixir.

Be demanding in choosing your toothpaste // We recommend this toothpaste without fluoride. Why does the emphasis on the absence of fluoride? We advise you to take a view of eyes in this study and this video based on studies from the University of Harvard ..
Although fluoride is naturally in water and soil, when added to products such as oral hygiene, it can cause skin irritation. If you have an inflammation in your mouth, replace your common toothpaste for an option without fluoride to avoid additional irritability. We like this vegan option that contains clay and baking soda, which in addition to cleaning your teeth also helps whiten naturally.
