How To Clean Your Teeth

This video describes and gives advice on how to easily achieve clean teeth through the use of proper brushing techniques and products.

Hi. I'm Brian Halvorsen and I'm a dentist. I've been in practice for over 35 years and I have written a book about my principles on holistic dentistry.

The book is called Great Teeth for Life. In this video, I am going to be talking about tooth brushing, something that I think most of us do virtually everyday of our lives, or I would like to feel we do. Now, tooth brushing has been in existence for the best part of 3000 years, and we used to use, actually, sticks, but now,

basically, toothbrushes made of nylon.

The reason they are of nylon now, rather than of bristle, was that the very fine
points, often because we now like to actually put it on the teeth and then massage into the gums, we don't want any sharp points to dig into the gums, and bristle brushes actually do that. So, they can actually be slightly harmful. So, the conventional brush, it doesn't matter who makes it, usually do pretty well.
