A dentist has warned of a potential health risk that comes when you don't brush your teeth correctly
A dentist has warned of potential tooth discolouration if people make a simple mistake while brushing their pearly whites. It's a well-known fact that your teeth should be cleaned at least twice a day, in the morning and in the evening before you go to bed.
The expert said: "Wetting your toothbrush before brushing your teeth is essential for several reasons. Firstly, wetting the bristles helps distribute toothpaste more effectively, ensuring better coverage across the tooth surfaces. This results in enhanced cleaning efficiency and more thorough removal of plaque and debris.
Wetting the toothbrush also acts as an "activation for the toothpaste's active ingredients such as fluoride", so you can strengthen tooth enamel and protect your gnashers against tooth decay.
