The main mistake everyone makes when brushing their teeth revealed

Dentist revealed the main mistake we all make when brushing teeth

As reported by TUT.AZ with reference to La Prensa Grafica, expert from the dental school of Birmingham University Dr. Pravin Sharma shared an unexpected discovery.

It turns out that the habit many people have of rinsing their mouth with water after brushing their teeth is a serious mistake that negates the effectiveness of daily hygiene. According to the specialist, it is more correct to simply spit out excess toothpaste without washing it off completely.

The reason for this recommendation lies in the composition of toothpastes. They contain fluoride and other beneficial components that should continue to work on tooth enamel after the brushing procedure. Rinsing with water removes these substances, depriving teeth of necessary protection. If you refrain from using water after brushing, the protective layer will be preserved much longer, providing maximum benefit, emphasized Dr. Sharma.
