You need to quit these habits immediately if you don't want to ruin your teeth.

Below are harmful habits that many people have when brushing their teeth, so they need to change immediately if they do not want their teeth to be damaged.

Wet your toothbrush before brushing your teeth:Almost everyone has the habit of dipping their toothbrush in water. When you dip your toothbrush in water, the ingredients in the toothpaste will become thinner when brushing and its effectiveness will be reduced. Therefore, remember to keep your toothbrush dry before brushing your teeth. And do not rinse your mouth too thoroughly after brushing your teeth.

Brushing too hard:It seems that most of us think that brushing our teeth hard will remove all the bacteria on our teeth, but we do not know that doing so will damage our enamel and gums and even put us at risk of receding gums.

Try to brush your teeth for 2-3 minutes.

Brushing teeth too fast:If you brush your teeth too fast, you are also destroying your teeth every day. Dentists recommend trying to clean your teeth for 2-3 minutes.

Not changing your toothbrush often:A worn toothbrush will not be able to remove bacteria thoroughly. Meanwhile, according to many studies, on average each toothbrush has up to 10 million bacteria, 200,000 times more than a toilet seat. Therefore, on average, you should throw away your toothbrush once every 3 months, even sooner if the toothbrush shows signs of fraying or wear.

Use a lot of toothpaste:If you brush your teeth with too much toothpaste, the ingredients in the toothpaste - mainly zinc compounds - can disrupt the balance of beneficial substances in the body, leading to neurological disorders.
