Brushing twice a day, in the morning after waking up and in the evening before going to bed, is the most basic and essential oral health care measure. It&#8217;s recommended to change your toothbrush every 3-4 months. For people with braces, special brushes and other oral hygiene tools should be used as per the orthodontist&#8217;s guidance.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@lavyonvietnam?lang=vi-VN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brushing<\/a> correctly<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-87692 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1029\" height=\"513\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important-1536x766.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important-150x75.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important-696x347.jpg 696w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important-1068x532.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Why-Good-Dental-Hygiene-is-Important-1920x957.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1029px) 100vw, 1029px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brushing regularly is not enough for oral health care; brushing technique matters to remove plaque buildup on the tooth surface, and limit bacteria causing cavities and gum inflammation. Incorrect brushing can erode tooth enamel, causing tooth sensitivity and allowing plaque to harden and accumulate, providing favorable conditions for bacteria to grow and attack teeth and gums, leading to gum disease. Overbrushing can also injure gum tissue, causing gum inflammation and recession.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleaning the tongue<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-87695 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nhung_cach_lam_sach_luoi_bi_trang_cho_nguoi_lon_1_eb1674cab2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"935\" height=\"548\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nhung_cach_lam_sach_luoi_bi_trang_cho_nguoi_lon_1_eb1674cab2.webp 800w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nhung_cach_lam_sach_luoi_bi_trang_cho_nguoi_lon_1_eb1674cab2-150x88.webp 150w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nhung_cach_lam_sach_luoi_bi_trang_cho_nguoi_lon_1_eb1674cab2-300x176.webp 300w, https:\/\/lavyon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nhung_cach_lam_sach_luoi_bi_trang_cho_nguoi_lon_1_eb1674cab2-696x408.webp 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 935px) 100vw, 935px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plaque can also accumulate on the tongue&#8217;s surface, leading to oral health issues and bad breath.
