As a teacher, this is honestly the type of thing they should be teaching in schools....especially elementary schools where a lot of kids (and Adults according to the comments below) either go to school without brushing their teeth or brushing it incorrectly....not getting them to write useless paragraphs on if an alien came to their house, what would they give them to eat....smh!!

I'm 25 and I just learned how to properly brush my teeth. Better late than never. Thanks for the upload!

wow this was the best 12 min ive spent in a long time

That moment when you realise you've been brushing too hard and receding your gums without actually cleaning your teeth particularly well for the past 20+ years

You are my favorite dental hygienist! Mostly because you are at a very safe distance.

2 key things I learned from this and very appreciative of it was 1) the tartar behind my bottom front teeth is normal, I'm not a freak and 2) the reason we brush when we wake up even though we haven't eaten anything is we have less saliva in the mouth to combat plaque build up.

My parents didnt teach me how to brush my teeth, I cant remember but I must have taught myself a long time ago. Anyone relate?

Wow I've been brushing my teeth wrong all these years my whole life. Thanks for the helpful advice

I'm 38 years old, and I didn't know until watching your video that plaque starts accumulating 15 minutes after brushing your teeth. Thank you. Yeah, no dentist or hygienist ever explained that to me - but then, I've never asked why I should clean my teeth twice a day. :)

I realised I've been brushing wrong the entire time, starting from now I'm going to brush the same as this woman does here

Why the hell aren't we taught all of this :( I'm 21 :(

I have bad plaque and I've been brushing the wrong way this whole time !! I can see it's finally coming off!! Thank you so much!!

Very good. Two things I didn't know about: The enamel is thickest on the molars chewing surface so I can apply a litte pressure to get into the fissures. And now I finally know why tartar seems to build up easily on the back of the incissors.

she is beautiful.

Thank you very, very much for this excellent, informative video. Well presented in a friendly manner using simple but precise language, not too long and not too short. Bless you and have a good day Tooth-Angel :-)

Thank you SO much for this comprehensive video!! I'm 63 years old and have never had such great instruction on how to brush teeth properly. I WILL make some changes per your instruction. I have my teeth cleaned every 6 months, but even any hygienist I've seen has not explained this at all. Thank YOU!!

She is adorable.

Ive been over brushing it seems. Thank you for uploading this, very helpful

Thank you very much for taking the time to demonstrate. I have been brushing way to hard!

You seem so friendly!

You are a great teacher.

i'm from west Africa Nigeria, i must say i have learnt a lot from you. your voice is so kind and gentle , extremely eloquent when you speak and straight to the point, i'm going to follow your instructions starting today . i was using the electric brush wrongly and i felt like i was wearing out my cavity from brushing the wrong way until i saw your brushing tutorial. i guess it's never late than never . Thank you for your time ....

Key points ;) 2:30 3:28 3:48 4:44 7:10

This is the top teeth cleaning infomation video I've seen. (At last!) Only to find how wrong I was at cleaning my teeth. 50 years of harsh brushing, not knowing, it's now about scrubbing them fast and hard any which way. My dentist has never taken the time to give me the few really helpful tips that you've just gave me. ( A couple of teeth at a time ) If only I'd had this information 50 years ago, or anywhere in between. Not only do you show us how to exactly brush our teeth, you explain why. I've always brush my molars and pre-molars up and down, but side to side. Also I've always brushed them with the top and bottom teeth, together. Noooo!!! My recent dental appointment was surprising. He said I wasn't brush my back teeth properly. He said I wasn't cleaning between my teeth properly, which caused staining. So, I thank you for your helpful video, which has now taught me techniques on how to properly brush them with the brush at a 45 degree angle. YES! And to pay particular attention to the lower front incisors. Another one was not brushing so hard. For me, it was the harder the better. Wrong! thanks to you. Thank you for your help. xx

Not only is this a useful video, the lady has a beautiful beautiful aura.

thank you soo much for posting this, it is absolutly fabulous!!! i i have been running into soo many clients that do not know how to properly brush their teeth

Very good advise... I learned a lot from this detailed vid...

Yikes, I've been doing it wrong my whole life and I'm middle aged - but better late than never I guess. Thanks for doing this video, it's very helpful to know the correct way to avoid more damage.

Thank you dear dentist. You have a lovely personality. I would love to have u as my dentiat if i lived nearby.That was informative. I m 45 and in my teens and 20ties i use to overbrush.

Such a joy to watch your video. You are such a good teacher! You are so nice, genuine and sweet, and the message is very clear. Although there is nothing very new that I have learned, you make me feel like going to brush my teeth again right now. Thank you.

Very informative. Love the way she explains how to use the different types of brushes.

One of the best videos on brushing.

WHAT? There is such thing as over brushing??? When I was like 12 I brushed my teeth for 15 minutes because I wanted the cleanest teeth in the world

finally a video of exactly what i needed!

Thanks you so much for this video. I want to have healthy teeth!

I love the way you are explaining

Thank you for this video. I have been brushing too hard. I have purchased an electric toothbrush to help me out.

Thank you so much for this well made and informative video! I've been looking for a good brushing video.

Good to hear a professional advice.. Thanks miss

Thanks....merci beaucoup, I just bought an Oral B electric brush, & extra super soft brushes.

Merci Michèle, vraiment you are the best !

I do really thank you for this video. I did not know how to use viber tooth brush before watching this video

Excellent and very well explained with patience! Cheers

Thanks. You've really helped me a lot.

JazakAllah, thanks for giving us very useful knowledge .

Thanks to this video i realized I've been brushing my teeth wrong my entire life. No wonder i always hated brushing teeth since it felt like it did nothing.

thank you so much! very helpful!

Wonderful video. Thank you.

That was very interesting. Do you have anything to say about brushing the tongue and other parts of the mouth?

Bravo Michèle! Tu expliques très bien! Très éducatif comme vidéo

Very helpful, thank you very much, I was doing it a bit wrong, I did it until now with a lot of strenght

Thanks doc great info. I find that rinsing with sea salt, iodine, grapefruit seed extract, oil of oregano or something like that will help a lot because they kill the germs around the gum line.

Good video. Im really big on oral hygiene. Even my tounge and brushing the inside of my cheeks.

Thank you, it’s very explanatory!

I stopped using my electric brush for a few weeks and went manual ,, had terrific pain in my molar, went back to the oral b with a clutch and it went away, you brush longer with it because you have to stay in each quadrant until it beeps to go to the next. So you brush longer and better.

Great video. Thank you.

This is the most informative for electrical brushing.

Thank you nice detailed video!

Not a single dentist ever told me not to press too hard and that this was the cause of my receding gum line. I'd like to know where your clinic is.

Thank you! I watched it with my husband who never heard how to brush his teeth right way! Haha

Thanks for this information.... very useful.

Thanks for the great advice 😸

Best clear video I have seen well explained.

Anyone else getting ASMR from this?

Thanks for the information I gather idea on this video . I love it .

Great video, good job!

Excellent, thank you

Very informative video. Thanks for the upload. You’ve helped a lot of people with this video

I am in Love with this video

Woah. I thought plaque starts forming only after eating , so i brushed only once per day, before bedtime. But now, I do brush twice a day. Plus back off the pressure on teehth and gums, don't press hard, and brush with correct technique. All life learning 👍

coz she's helping and very thoroughly

Thank you from the U.K.

Thanks for your video. Good teacher :)

Thanks for this

thank you for this great video. I have gum recession. Could the electric toothbrushes make the recession worse?

Love your video . Thank you so much. I bought me my first time oral b brush and I love it. It's actually fun to brush. Any ideas on which toothpaste best to use .

thank you !

Thanks. Very useful.

Thank you!

Very educational video. Thanks !! and keep it UP !!

Its very informative video. Thanks mam for explaining and practically showing how to brush teeth properly.

Thank you so much...i knew most of this stuff but had long forgotten :(

GREAT video!

thank you michelle i have been scrubbing since i was a kid and lucky that i have good teeth, but you were right my gums do sometimes get a bit sore. but now i know how to get rid of plaque efficiently, can you make a video on how to efficiently remove the faded yellow tint on teeth? thanks!

Thank you ma'am

I read after eating it's good to use mouthwash with fluoride. You must need to wait for 30 min before brushing with toothpaste. Since acidic food such as meats can destroy the enamel. I brush with manual toothbrush without toothpaste after eating. Later 30 min, i brush with electric one with toothpaste. This video is super helpful and wish was a hygiene class to teach younger kids(and adults too) from how to brush their teeth to how to wash your body properly.

I love this video!

what a lovely lady.

Thank you

Bonjour,... Thank you for sharing...

Oral B brush on a Bruan battery toothbrush is a dupe...comes with the battery...also has the same brush, but battery operated and about 13. $ At walmart. I love it. And battery still lasting at 6 months.

thank u for your kind infermation

very helpful video!

great video! thank u ma'am

Thank-you for the informative video. I have an Oral-B toothbrush that needs to be replaced. Glad to see a professional say it is fine to use. Its more about the technique than the toothbrush. Also, I'll try your method when traveling with a manual brush.

Very helpful, thank you :)

Great video. Helps a lot. Thank you so much :)

Very nice, it looks more easier without the actually mouth but more diferent with .

Thanks, mon orthodentiste a toujours essayé de m'apprendre mais j'ai jamais rien compris 😂 grâce à ta vidéo je pense pouvoir m'en sortir maintenant ^^

Great video Michelle! Proud of our CDHA members keeping consumers informed. Is there a flossing video too?
