Tips for specific oral care needs ◗ Stain removal In areas where staining occurs, a few seconds of additional brushing time may be spent to assist with stain removal. C ◗ Braces The brush should be placed at a 45-degree angle between your brackets and gumline. Using light pressure, gently move the bristles in a small circular motion so that the long bristles reach between your teeth for 2 seconds.
C 5 To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections: outside top, inside top, outside bottom and inside bottom teeth. Begin brushing in section 1 (outside top teeth) and brush for 30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside top teeth). Continue brushing for 30 seconds in each section progressing through all 4 sections until you've brushed for 2 minutes. If activated, the Quadpacer\ timer will beep every 30 seconds to signal you to move to the next quadrant.
