The correct way to use a children's toothbrush mainly includes choosing a suitable toothbrush and mastering the correct way of brushing.
First of all, it is very important to choose a suitable toothbrush. Children should use a toothbrush with a small brush head and soft bristles, which helps to clean the mouth better. For example, the toothbrush head recommended in the Bass brushing method is small, with no more than three rows of bristles, soft and suitable for children.
Secondly, mastering the correct way of brushing is the key. When brushing teeth, the toothbrush should be pointed at the root tip at a 45-degree angle with the long axis of the tooth, and the toothbrush should be placed at the junction of the tooth and the gums, and the sawing motion should be gently pulled back and forth, with each pull distance of about 2-3 mm. Brush the upper teeth from bottom to top and the lower teeth from top to bottom to ensure that every tooth is brushed. For the front teeth, you can brush them vertically, and don't forget to brush the tongue at the end.
In addition, parents can help younger children brush their teeth and cultivate good brushing habits. It is also very important to take children for oral examinations regularly to detect and treat oral problems in a timely manner.
