1. BRUSHING

First and foremost tip, Brushing. Brush your teeth twice a day in gentle yet proper manner. Brushing in the morning is not enough and you have to do it before going to sleep. You should use a soft brush to brush and use toothpaste with at least 1,350 parts per million (ppm) fluoride. Tongue cleaning should follow next after the brushing is done.
