I started brushing this way for 1 week along with flossing. My gingivitis is gone. This video is so helpful. I wish everyone follows this method to protect their teeth.
@@Daisymaderacosio if you gonna drink soda and coffee i recommend rinsing after drinkg or using straw in coffee so it doesnt stain your tooth also dont leave the softdrinks in your mouth the acid decays the enamel im still young and already has decayed dentin regretting drinking softdrinks😭
@@Ldenlord Actually, I no longer use the wiggle method. I was using it because I had teeth sensitivity. As it turns out, my wisdom teeth came in extremely aggressively, and I had them removed. Afterward, I use a different method where (let's imagine the top teeth), I start at the gum line and brush down vertically. This seems to polish the inside and outside teeth well without roughing up the gums. I will say, that I now religiously floss between all my teeth every night and it has helped me get rid of some very aggressive plague that used to form very fast. All in all, I'm doing well right now.
@@Deadlyaztec27 Do you think your brushing downwards method is better than the wiggle method? I think the wiggle method works well because like Dr. Supa shows in his video that plaque forms around the gum line. But, your method of brushing down from the gum line doesn't seem to focus on the gum line as much where the plaque is focused. I only found out about the wiggle method recently.
@@anunknownperson4018 I used to do the same, so i toned down how "aggressive" i was yet apparently after this video i have yet again learned i was still too aggressive lol. I never in my life would have thought to do "wiggle" motions and always hated soft bristles. Always used medium, did circular motions but made sure to get every inch of my tooth. Gonna try the wiggle method and not doing circle/side to side lol. That might explain why i'd have cavities once in a while.
Key points from this video: 0:47 - Most of the bacteria on your teeth live close to your gums. See important visuals. 1:26 - 3 common mistakes: side-to-side brushing; up-and-down brushing; and circular brushing. 3:11 - Press brush 45° towards gums and gently wiggle brush. 3:56 - Start from the back and finish at the back (on the other side). 4:20 - Most decay and gum diseases happens in the back. Don't miss the back. 5:11 - Go around your mouth 3 times (to cover 3 different surfaces - outside, inside, & top). Great video! And thanks for not only providing tips but also providing your rationale for those tips. 👍
Thank you doctor, not a lot of dentists care for their patients enough to teach them how to properly care for their teeth, this should be mandatory education around the world, our teeth and health are one of the most precious things we have. Keep helping people, I'm grateful for this video, all my life I have been doing it wrong.
Same, never had a single dentist tell me how to brush my teeth in depth. Some have given me "tips", but not a full on detailed description. Although, according to this video i've been brushing incorrectly my whole life. Then again, the entire medical industry revolves around seeing patients as often as possible so they can make their billions of dollars off treatments and medications. So us brushing incorrectly means more work needed to keep our teeth healthy aka more money in their pockets. If everyone flossed at least 3 x a week and brushed their teeth properly twice a day. The most majority of us would see is the hygienist.
Yeah I agree. Seems pretty obvious why they wouldn’t teach you this tho. Bad brushing encourage tooth decay, gum recession and abrasion and that will be beneficial for them.
Agreed. Funny, I was just thinking the other day about when I was growing up and how many useless things I was taught in school, compared to how few of the most important things to know in life, including proper dental care such as this.
Well done, Dr. Supa. As a hygienist, I endorse your instruction. Especially the "wiggle" vs. "scrubbing" and how to reach the distal of the molars. :-)
@@justpassingthrough3410 That’s because, if you understand the anatomy, brushing up for the lowers “the way the teeth grow“ is an ineffective way To clean the sulcus… The little turtleneck around each tooth. If you go to my website you will see illustrations of the anatomy that will enlighten and short videos which will educate you on the best method to get superior results with your toothbrush and floss. On average, people only spend 30 seconds brushing their teeth. And, they literally “brush“ their teeth which is an incorrect way to clean your teeth well. Most people miss the gumline third of the tooth they do well at getting the middle third and the biting/top third of the tooth clean. So, sweeping toward the biting edge is not really necessary. I use a 2- tone disclosing solution to make the bacterial accumulation on the teeth visible. This is how I know what actually works when using a toothbrush. Various methods can be tried, but the one that wins is the one that takes the bright purple plaque off of the teeth. I’ve been teaching this method with outstanding results for 38 years. I’m currently conducting a research study in Kenya to ascertain the validity of my own findings. The method you suggest is a valid technique and it has a name. If I’m not mistaken, it’s called the Collins technique. However the one that is pretty much excepted worldwide is called the modified bass technique. However Dr. super is not teaching that, and I concur with his technique of a small wiggle motion. I find that is the best. The bass technique teaches small circles. The problem with the Bass is that people don’t understand what they’re trying to accomplish and their circles get *really* big, sometimes encompassing the upper and lower teeth at the same time. My feeling is that if people understand the anatomy of their teeth and gums, they will then be able to apply the correct method because now they understand what it is they’re trying to accomplish and why. My website, brushforlife.com illustrates this.
Well, it's nice to hear a second opinion. It's kind of terrifying to know that despite my brushing the healthy, consistent amount, I can start to see some slight discoloration in certain spots. It isn't that bad yet, but I feel like this video and your comment may have just saved me a whole lot of trouble as I was definitely scrubbing before. Thanks a lot, yall. Time to go nip this in the bud.

Thanks so much! I'm an aggressive brusher and have gum recession now. As a result, I avoid brushing the gums but now I have bacteria building up! I will try the 45 degree angle. Thanks again!
@@tryingtohandlewell Pretty good! I ended up buying an inexpensive electric toothbrush and it is so gentle on my teeth and gums. Gets everything clean and no more gum recession. :) I highly recommend an electric toothbush!
@@tryingtohandlewell I tried it but I figured to be most effective, I would just get an electric toothbrush and have it do the work. Plus, it times the 2 mins for me.
I've been brushing my teeth as suggested and it WORKS. My skin is incredibly sensitive (even comfortable shoes damage it) and so are my gums. Brushing just like shown makes a significant difference. It has become a pleasant routine, my mouth feels cleaner since nothing sticky remains near the gums (as I used to brush, I sometimes didn't want to reach the area to avoid hurting my gums) and it is so easy to achieve. I think this video shows how much he knows and cares about the profession. Thank you!!!
How can even dislike this video? HE IS TEACHING US HOW TO BRUSH OUR TEETH PROPERLY. People who disliked this video can never learn how to brush properly.
Probably cause they learned different ways from many professionals and are stuck in their ways. Ngl, the way I learned from my dentist was the circular motion but apparently that's wrong too. Not to mention, I didn't realize you didn't have to brush as hard. Sheesh. I need to start correcting myself.
Every single brushing method is wrong, FUCK. I'll just not brus my teeth at all - actually i'll just have them removed and not have to deal with this dental hygiene!
Thank you for making this video, Dr Supa. I've been brushing wrong my whole life; I used to do all the three things you said not to do. But I'm definitely switching to your method.
I never learned how to properly brush my teeth until Now. I have a sonicare brush and everything. I have just been scrubbing my teeth with no purpose. This is life changing. You are amazing.🙌🏾🙌🏾
I've started taking care of my teeth seriously after going through a root canal. Living in a place where dental care is insanely expensive this video is a life saver. I dont brush that aggressively but I wasn't brushing the right way either. I'll come back again just so I can remember it better. (I tend to forget) thanks for the tutorial. My dentist never talked about anything of this sort. Never once mentioned incorrect brushing techniques. She kept bringing my diet up and when I stressed that I barely eat any junk or candies like most people she kept insisting that it's not the truth or that I eat way too many carbs. I'm Asian so we eat rice a lot and I agreed on that. I didn't like her tho 😐
Some dentists recommend bridging in a circular motion, some say just keep the bristles fixed in the teeth. While wiggling them, why do dentists have some many methods of brushing teeth and how do we choose which one is right?
So glad this video was recommended to me. Been thinking of investing in my teeth after so many problems & this video gave me the knowledge WHY I'm brushing instead of "it's just something that has to be done". It's less of a chore knowing the reasons for preventing tooth decay. Thank u, Dr. Supa!!
Tbh I’m ashamed of myself. I fucked up my teeth like not bad bad but cavities... Yea- my doctor only told me to try brushing 4 times a day 😅 .. nobody ever told me how to properly brush them and I never knew food got stuck in your grooves of your teeth till my before appointment. My teeth look healthy but when you look at the top and bottom of my teeth.. lmao I almost cried my eyes out a few days ago cuz they said I had a lot of cavities out loud and one of the girls shook they’re heads at me. brush my teeth and more than my brother and somehow he doesn’t have any cavities and he eats more than me too. I’m so ashamed of myself. Kids take care of them teeth 😃.
@@Απρίλιος-β6γ Oh my, you should never brush your teeth 4 times a day, that's terrible advice. It will start to irritate the gum and actually remove flourid.
I have to come back to say Thank You for this video!!! After I first seen this back in March, I've been brushing this way since, and I notice a difference. I cringe when I think about the things I wasn't doing for most of my life, but I can only do better from here on out.
Thanks for this. The instructions for brushing make perfect sense now with your explanations. I need explanations in order for me to understand and accept things. Also, this is more comprehensive than something else I’ve seen. Thanks so much.
I literally get my braces off in like 2 weeks and I’ve brushed my teeth like this because my orthodontist taught me how to brush like this. I hope my results are fantastic :)
Wow, thanks! Never knew how to brush correctly until now. Just had a deep cleaning, im at the point now that I'll whatever I need to do to keep my teeth healthy. Update: This works! See my 1 and 2 yr updates in the reply comments.
Same! I just had a deep cleaning today and holy cow. I started looking up how to properly floss and brush my teeth to never go through that hell again. How has this brushing method worked for you?
@@animeaddict1101 Wonderfully! I went back for my follow up and the dentist was so shocked at how well my teeth/gums recovered. I've been flossing at least once a day (before bed) and brush twice a day (morning/nite) using method. No bleeding whatsoever. Amazing. I know I sound like an advertisement or something, but it works lol. Takes consistency and it eventually becomes a habit.
@@loveislove2359 Yeah, it's not fun having your gums scraped at. I have been brushing (and flossing) properly ever since that last post. No joke, my dentist and hygienist tell me to keep doing whatever I've been doing lol. It's funny that they never mentioned this, they just say to "brush". You can do it, do it every day and it'll become a habit. Easily save on dental bills and pain. Wish you the best on your healthy mouth journey! 😁🦷
This makes so much sense. I have been doing all the stuff he says not to do and my gums are receding. I am going to try this method. I wish I would have known this 50 years ago. Thanks for posting this helpful video.
Great educational video on how to brush your teeth correctly. The video should be shared with teenagers and school-age children. Never heard about the "wiggle," but it does make great sense. Thank you for taking the time to educate us all.
This video was uploaded when I was 20, today I have come across it 8 years later just to learn to brush well for the first time. Thanks for this video ❤
If u press brush to make its filaments fill vestibular/oral part of interdental gap it will probably take enough pressure to damage interdental papilla depending on strenght of the filaments (to avoid it - use medium soft or soft toothbrushes). In dental hygiene we always ask patients not to press too much - the main idea of brushing is to destroy plaque microstructure, not to "clean bacteria" so it is better to use less pressure but more frequent and tender wavings of toothbrush filaments. And if dental morphology makes no help - just use interdental toothbrushes or buy toothbrush with lesser head and clean teeth according to their structure. Or use sonic/rotating brushes with minimal pressure.
Thank you for this amazing and accurate presentation. 41 and learning to brush my teeth correctly and I've seen dentists in America, Canada, Australia and NZ. They all told me about gum recession and demonstrate versions of brushing. I have some mildly concerning gum recession that I need to get on top of! To think I knew it when I was a kid with braces!
This is very good, really needs to be taught often. Just telling someone to brush better does not help the patient. Physical demonstrations helps. Thank you.
Thank you for the video, helped me realize that I was brushing my teeth incorrectly for decades. Furthermore, this approach makes significantly more sense than other similar instructional videos.
I’ve never really known the importance of flossing, washing dishes with cold and warm water, as well as the correct method of brushing. This is making me think how much I’m doing wrong after all this time.
wow thanks for that! I believe most people don't know how to brush their teeth and your video shows all three mistakes that I make and a clear and understandable way of how to do it right!
38 and now learning the correct way, a blessing now i can clean my kids teeth the right way. Sad im learning this at an older age when not 1 dentist i ever encountered told nor taught me this
I just found this and tried it out for the first time. I feel it may change my dental life. A question: Do you recommend electric toothbrushes? Do they get the wiggle motion correct, or is manually moving the brush better? Also, how long should one spend wiggling in each spot? Thanks!
My new dentist told me today that I have receding gums thanks to aggressive brushing with electic toothbrush. He recommended to change my electric toothbrush with sensitive brush immediately into "manually moving extra sensitive brush" as it is much more gentle and you actually feel it better what you're doing. I then asked about the right technique for manual brushing and the dentist showed me exactly the same demonstration as this brilliant Supa Dental video. Sooo I would say, keep to the manual brush unless you already are a gentle brusher. My last dentist told me that if I want to continue using electric brush, I should keep the brush still on every tooth and very slowly move it on the side surface to the next tooth and let the brush do its wiggle on the way. I have been using the kind of brush that spins around and at the same time pulsates up and down a little. About the time... I can't say what is a good time for each spot, but the total time should be 2-3 minutes. If you divide that into the 3 rounds Dr. Supa told us to do, that's about 1 minute for each circle. 1min for out surface, 1min for inner surface and 0,5-1min for the top sides.
This is good advice. I can't stress enough the value of an electric (i.e. battery) toothbrush. They vibrate nice and fast, so you can use this method with very little wiggling. My kids had a lot of cavities until we switched to electric.
I just got back from a dental visit because of a chipped tooth and after x-rays was told I have early periodontal issues. Some 4+ ugh but today I was today years old as far as learning how to brush my teeth. Thank you for this because as of today I now learned how to brush properly. Only took me 40 years. 4/14/21 happy born day to me. Lol
1:30 that up and down is modern bass technique and my dentist recommended me to brush that way. I am little confused which brushing technique should i follow
I have made it to Age 78 with all of my teeth except for my Wisdom teeth. No one has ever shown me or told me how to brush my teeth. I find this video very valuable!

My teeth look healthy but when you look at the top and bottom of my teeth.. lmao I almost cried my eyes out a few days ago cuz they said I had a lot of cavities out loud and one of the girls shook they’re heads at me. brush my teeth and more than my brother and somehow he doesn’t have any cavities and he eats more than me too. I’m so ashamed of myself. Kids take care of them teeth 😃.
@@Απρίλιος-β6γ Oh my, you should never brush your teeth 4 times a day, that's terrible advice. It will start to irritate the gum and actually remove flourid.
Well, if we all were using right techniques in the dental hygiene then we all would have perfect teeth and no one will go to the dentist
@@Απρίλιος-β6γ you only need 2 times a day
Whos here from CatBoyKami
Wow, very clear demonstration....I am forwarding this to the rest of my family, especially my teens. Thank you, Dr. Supa 😍
Thank you kami
Thanks Kami
Thanks kami! ''wow I didnt know that you're just telling me for the first time''
After living 21 years of life i realised how hard brushing teeth is.
LIKE WHY IS IT SO HARD 😭😭😭😭
I have to come back to say Thank You for this video!!! After I first seen this back in March, I've been brushing this way since, and I notice a difference. I cringe when I think about the things I wasn't doing for most of my life, but I can only do better from here on out.
Best video on how to brush! Thank you! Many years later! ❤
I'm so ready for clean teeth and fresh breath now that I know how to brush! Thanks Dr. Supa
How is your teeth and gum now ... Does this works for you?
Damn i am redpilled about teeth brushing . Thanks catboykami .
Oh boy the things we encounter when we get older 😞
Teeth hurt?
@@aeops9774 no the pain hurts hen you dont floss and other stuff
@@aeops9774 im not a dentist but you should try flossing once a week and progress from there, its to prevent bad stuff
😁
@@aeops9774 use a water floss if you’d like, it’s an easier experience
Thanks for this. The instructions for brushing make perfect sense now with your explanations. I need explanations in order for me to understand and accept things. Also, this is more comprehensive than something else I’ve seen. Thanks so much.
I like how he doesn’t just tell it’s wrong. He shows you why it’s wrong and corrects it.
You've been more helpful than my hygienist, that's for sure. Thanks to her instructions my receding gums have got even worse now :/
33 years of doing it wrong, now as a gift I have super residing gum line , now dentist wants deep cleaning every 3 months.
Oh brother sounds very bad. Hope everything works out for you its pretty hard maintaining proper teeth it seems
I've been brushing my teeth wrong
all my life. At 18 now I realise how it is actually done. Dr thank you so much.
I literally get my braces off in like 2 weeks and I’ve brushed my teeth like this because my orthodontist taught me how to brush like this. I hope my results are fantastic :)
cool telegram notification
thanks katboycami
Thanks Doc many times we learn things too late. But well better late than never like it is said Again great video thanks
OMG!!! 😱😱😱 And I found out I've been brushing my teeth wrong the whole time as well as my son's. Thank you Doc!
Wow, thanks! Never knew how to brush correctly until now. Just had a deep cleaning, im at the point now that I'll whatever I need to do to keep my teeth healthy.
Update: This works! See my 1 and 2 yr updates in the reply comments.
Same! I just had a deep cleaning today and holy cow. I started looking up how to properly floss and brush my teeth to never go through that hell again. How has this brushing method worked for you?
@@animeaddict1101 Wonderfully! I went back for my follow up and the dentist was so shocked at how well my teeth/gums recovered. I've been flossing at least once a day (before bed) and brush twice a day (morning/nite) using method. No bleeding whatsoever. Amazing. I know I sound like an advertisement or something, but it works lol. Takes consistency and it eventually becomes a habit.
@@animeaddict1101 wish you the best on your teeth recovery.
Oh my day I just went through the same hell and back, such pain is not humane. Now I'll do whatever it takes to not have to go through that again.
@@loveislove2359 Yeah, it's not fun having your gums scraped at. I have been brushing (and flossing) properly ever since that last post. No joke, my dentist and hygienist tell me to keep doing whatever I've been doing lol. It's funny that they never mentioned this, they just say to "brush". You can do it, do it every day and it'll become a habit. Easily save on dental bills and pain. Wish you the best on your healthy mouth journey! 😁🦷
true gamer technique
This makes so much sense. I have been doing all the stuff he says not to do and my gums are receding. I am going to try this method. I wish I would have known this 50 years ago. Thanks for posting this helpful video.
Best of luck :)
Awesome information! I had been doing a version of this technique but you have given a detailed way to brush my teeth better.
Thank you for elucidating in such a clear way doc
Kami sent me here
Great educational video on how to brush your teeth correctly. The video should be shared with teenagers and school-age children. Never heard about the "wiggle," but it does make great sense. Thank you for taking the time to educate us all.
CatboyKami sent me here
This video was uploaded when I was 20, today I have come across it 8 years later just to learn to brush well for the first time. Thanks for this video ❤
If u press brush to make its filaments fill vestibular/oral part of interdental gap it will probably take enough pressure to damage interdental papilla depending on strenght of the filaments (to avoid it - use medium soft or soft toothbrushes). In dental hygiene we always ask patients not to press too much - the main idea of brushing is to destroy plaque microstructure, not to "clean bacteria" so it is better to use less pressure but more frequent and tender wavings of toothbrush filaments. And if dental morphology makes no help - just use interdental toothbrushes or buy toothbrush with lesser head and clean teeth according to their structure. Or use sonic/rotating brushes with minimal pressure.
Thank you for this amazing and accurate presentation. 41 and learning to brush my teeth correctly and I've seen dentists in America, Canada, Australia and NZ. They all told me about gum recession and demonstrate versions of brushing. I have some mildly concerning gum recession that I need to get on top of! To think I knew it when I was a kid with braces!
Thank you so much! I've been having bad cavities to my molars now and I figured that I just learn the proper way to dental care and start flossing
This is very good, really needs to be taught often. Just telling someone to brush better does not help the patient. Physical demonstrations helps. Thank you.
Thanks CatBoyKami
Thank you for the video, helped me realize that I was brushing my teeth incorrectly for decades. Furthermore, this approach makes significantly more sense than other similar instructional videos.
Thanks for the good education, i look forward to using a less random scrubing motion, and more of this 3 lap/3 side tactic
I was brushing my teeth wrong for thirty years. This video is life changing
Makes total sense. Thank you for sharing, finally (after 40 years of ignorance). Is there any machine that does the job for us?
I'm not aware of such machine but be sure to let me know. Then I wouldn't have to teach my patients on brushing :)
Yo I've been thinking the same like is there any machine that does the brushing for us.
Thanks kami
I’ve never really known the importance of flossing, washing dishes with cold and warm water, as well as the correct method of brushing. This is making me think how much I’m doing wrong after all this time.
wow thanks for that! I believe most people don't know how to brush their teeth and your video shows all three mistakes that I make and a clear and understandable way of how to do it right!
Wow no one explained it like that before. Thanks a ton ❤️ What are other doctors doing and what stuff do we teach in school 😦
You are never too old to learn, thanks for this wonderful video Dr. Supa's
thx Kami
Best explanation I heard about how to brush my teeth. Thank you Dr. Supa.
Do you have a video of your opinion on electric toothbrush?
38 and now learning the correct way, a blessing now i can clean my kids teeth the right way. Sad im learning this at an older age when not 1 dentist i ever encountered told nor taught me this
I just found this and tried it out for the first time. I feel it may change my dental life. A question: Do you recommend electric toothbrushes? Do they get the wiggle motion correct, or is manually moving the brush better? Also, how long should one spend wiggling in each spot? Thanks!
My new dentist told me today that I have receding gums thanks to aggressive brushing with electic toothbrush. He recommended to change my electric toothbrush with sensitive brush immediately into "manually moving extra sensitive brush" as it is much more gentle and you actually feel it better what you're doing.
I then asked about the right technique for manual brushing and the dentist showed me exactly the same demonstration as this brilliant Supa Dental video.
Sooo I would say, keep to the manual brush unless you already are a gentle brusher. My last dentist told me that if I want to continue using electric brush, I should keep the brush still on every tooth and very slowly move it on the side surface to the next tooth and let the brush do its wiggle on the way. I have been using the kind of brush that spins around and at the same time pulsates up and down a little.
About the time... I can't say what is a good time for each spot, but the total time should be 2-3 minutes. If you divide that into the 3 rounds Dr. Supa told us to do, that's about 1 minute for each circle. 1min for out surface, 1min for inner surface and 0,5-1min for the top sides.
Thank you. Your teaching was simple and clear.
Not a client of yours but thanks.
firequeen 3600 haa
Ja
This is good advice. I can't stress enough the value of an electric (i.e. battery) toothbrush. They vibrate nice and fast, so you can use this method with very little wiggling. My kids had a lot of cavities until we switched to electric.
Thank you so much. Good wishes from Bangladesh 💓
This is the best demonstration on mistakes and proper teeth brushing. Thanks for the video!
i’ve been brushing my gums, but not in an angle. ty for the tips babe🤠💕
This is a very thorough tutorial. The others I watched left more questions than answers. Thank you!!!
omg, so THIS is how you're supposed to brush your teeth lol Thanks so much!
After 18 years I now know how to brush my teeth properly, thank you sir.
I personally use 1 grid sandpaper works like a dime
Wow thanks for the tip! I've been using the sandpaper method for 2 weeks now & I'm proud to say that I'll never use toothpaste again.
@@Abby-ft1bu how is that method?
Lmao
your not funny dumbass
Angle grinder is good
I just got back from a dental visit because of a chipped tooth and after x-rays was told I have early periodontal issues. Some 4+ ugh but today I was today years old as far as learning how to brush my teeth. Thank you for this because as of today I now learned how to brush properly. Only took me 40 years. 4/14/21 happy born day to me. Lol
1:30 that up and down is modern bass technique and my dentist recommended me to brush that way. I am little confused which brushing technique should i follow
One of the best videos I have ever come across. Not only did I learn a lot of hidden things but also some technical stuff. Keep it up!
very detailed I like it
This is the kind of stuff they don’t teach you in school, yet it’s very important
Thanks catboy
I have made it to Age 78 with all of my teeth except for my Wisdom teeth. No one has ever shown me or told me how to brush my teeth. I find this video very valuable!
Why TF did Kami link this video ?
Fantastic video, very good explanations. Thank you!
when are you doing more videos? update please (Kami)
