This procedure cannot be skipped. At the same time, brushing your teeth in the evening must be done according to certain rules.

Dentist Vyacheslav Minko spoke about this in an interview with Vechernyaya Moskva .

He noted that many people perform the procedure carelessly, which ultimately leads only to problems – caries and other diseases.

As the doctor noted, you need to devote time to brushing. It is best to hold the brush at an angle of 45 degrees, and the movements should be from the gum to the edge of the teeth.

Avoid using horizontal movements.

You can use an electric toothbrush, which covers all areas of the tooth, saving time.

Once your teeth are clean, you can move on to cleaning your tongue. This should be done without any sudden movements.

After this, you can move on to the interdental spaces. You can use dental floss or a special brush for this.

Minko emphasized in a conversation with journalists that it is important to choose the right toothpaste. For example, whitening can only be used on the recommendation of a dentist.
