(Helpful Tip) For those with weak gums and bleeding during brushing!!

My gums are healthy!! My teeth are also well-aligned, so I don't get much tartar buildup (bragging rights).

But my husband's teeth are crooked, his gums are weak, and on days he drinks too much, he complains of pain all the time!! So, I will share some sweet tips from a dental hygienist family that we practice in our daily life♡

 

Everyone knows the importance of flossing, but they don't take good care of it! Brushing alone can never clean thoroughly!! You need to remove food debris between your teeth with interdental brushes or dental floss to maintain your dental health!!!

 

Oral-B products are very well-known, right? The mint-scented product also provides a refreshing feeling after flossing, so I recommend this product!!

 

For those who find floss too bothersome, try interdental brushes!! They are a bit more expensive than floss, but if you keep them clean and stored properly, they can be reused!!

You can easily carry it around and break the toothpick!! Do not use this toothpick as it separates the teeth and puts strain on the gums!!

Size is important when choosing interdental brushes!!

If your teeth are aligned and there are no gaps, I recommend floss (I use floss). Forcing interdental brushing can strain your gums.

My husband's teeth are irregular and have gaps, so he prefers interdental brushes over dental floss.^^

 

♡Sensodyne Toothpaste

For those with weak gums, this is a famous product!! When gums are weak and sag, it can cause sensitivity and headachesㅠ My husband’s gums have receded, making his teeth quite weak!! Sensodyne Pink may not taste good, but it works well!! If used regularly twice a day, sensitivity symptoms improve quickly starting from two weeks!!

 

♡Is there anyone who brushes their teeth horizontally??

Brushing should be done correctly along the vertical direction of the teeth!! My husband was vigorously brushing horizontally and I smacked him on the back!!! Brushing that damages the gumsㅠ

In the photo, you are cleaning your tongue with a toothbrush, but I recommend using a tongue cleaner!! It makes a difference in removing coating!!

 

♡The long-awaited must-have item: Waterpik♡ (Home oral irrigator)

If floss and interdental brushes are too painful, I recommend a Waterpik! I am confident it can remove 100% of food debris^^

For those who find flossing bothersome and refuse to do it, feed them spicy chicken stew, give them a slap, and make them use the Waterpik^^. If you've brushed your teeth, what could possibly come out??? People who say that make my eyes pop out lol. When you see all kinds of chili powder and chicken residue debris, even if they tell you not to, I still use the Waterpik!!

There are some drawbacks like being a bit noisy and expensive, but Waterpik is the best for gum health!! It also massages the gums depending on the water pressure, so people with weak gums should definitely try it!! Use the tips according to the number of family members so everyone in the family can take care of their gum health♡
