After my first time using a tongue scraper I just couldn't go back to not scraping it. I now feel all the gunk and don't feel clean enough if I don't do it! Instantly noticed that my breath got actually fresh
@@BornvsMe Just your standard tongue scraper from your local pharmacist 🙏🏼 Plus floss, electric toothbrush and multiple replacement heads. Then organic mouth wash :)

3:42 LET ME TELL YA’LL SOMETHING - HE IS TELLING YOU THE TRUTH! My periodontist explained this to me and I did it for about a month along with flossing. He said my bleeding dropped by 30%! My pockets decreased drastically in size as well. I wish I’d been brushing this way my whole life. Thank you for sharing that with everyone else guys 😇. Bless you.
i'm so glad i'm doing most of the mentioned things already (especially tongue scraping) and i don't know if i'm the only one with this but whenever i fall asleep without brushing my teeth, i always wake up in the middle of the night because my body just can't calm down knowing i didn't brush my teeth and so i have to get up to brush them or else i just can't get back to sleep so i really appreciate my body for knowing how important it is to brush my teeth!

Oh my god!!! Since I've had my wisdom teeth out I have struggles to get in that area well. That jaw movement tip is lifechanging! And I had never heard anything like it! Thank you Soo much!!!
Loved this video ! I always flossed AFTER brushing bc I thought the mouth wash just rinsed away the debris. This was so helpful ! Would love a video about your fave/worst toothpastes or mouth washes ! Also fascinated by the sound of oil pulling but also scared, would love your thoughts !
some people need to be careful using an electric toothbrush. my sister was using one, and the way she was using it caused some damage to her gums. her dentist recommended for her to switch back to manual. i haven’t had any problems with electric toothbrushes though.
Hi John, Can your next video be a brand/product review episode for mouthwash and toothpaste brands?? Ive heard mixed things about listerine, and that some toothpaste brands are better than others. It's hard to tell with so much marketing speak from these brands and would love your professional opinion! Toothbrush brands, floss brands can be supplementary but I would wnat to hear more about your opinions on these nad what you guys recommend !!
My sonicare toothbrush leaves my teeth feeling so clean. Once in a while I have to use a regular brush, and I can feel the difference. For over 10 years now, I’m always glad to return to my sonicare.
A trick I learned that'll help supress your gag reflex when scraping your tongue is to squeeze your thumb as hard as you can (without hurting yourself). If you use your right hand to brush/scrape then use your left hand to squeeze and vice versa.
I work at a periodontal office and I can say that I didn't understand oral hygiene until I started working there! Thanks for this video! Shout out to the Bay Area!
I have not had tooth decay, much less dental caries, ever in my life. My oral hygiene routine is: 1) Apply a _smallll_ amount of toothpaste onto my electric toothbrush, press the toothpaste _into_ the brush so it's actually fully used, and spread the toothpaste over all my teeth, but NOT brush yet. 2) Floss using a reusable stainless steel floss holder that looks like an F, with a satin floss that is wound around the prongs of the F. This is much easier and faster than using my fingers, and allows me to use much less floss, too. Spreading toothpaste first makes it much less disgusting to floss, and also supplies fluoride which keep our teeth strong! Rinse with water after flossing. 3) Gently brush teeth with the electric toothbrush that still has some remaining toothpaste from earlier. I go over each gumline twice, once in each direction, angling the brush towards each direction. 4) Manually and gently brush tongue, cheeks, and massage gum with the toothbrush switched off. 5) Rinse with water, clean all the tools, put on my retainers, and I'm done! All of this takes about 10 minutes.
Obviously this works for you, but I really recommend not rinsing your mouth with water after brushing. It takes away the benefits from using toothpaste! I also generally use mouthwash before brushing so that I don’t rinse away the toothpaste after I brush.
@@5050TM no problem! These are habits/tips I've built over years, so I don't expect anyone to follow it exactly. Like, pressing the toothpaste into the toothbrush was an idea I had many years ago that when I see others spitting out lumps of toothpaste after brushing, I had forgotten that I too had that problem, and wondered why they were doing that, haha.
Hi @@melaniesosa9539, thanks for the tip! I've tried it myself, but I couldn't stand the thought and feeling of having toothpaste that still had (most likely still living) bacteria sitting in my mouth. The main benefit of leaving toothpaste in is remineralization of the teeth with fluoride, but I know my teeth are not demineralized, as they have been before due to braces. Once the braces were removed, my teeth remineralize with the same routine even though I didn't leave the toothpaste in. But I also eat nutritious foods which help with remineralization of the teeth, and I tend to avoid foods high in sucrose as sucrose in particular forms a harder-to-remove plaque. So that's why I decided not to leave toothpaste in and just wash everything off.
it’s giving Doctorly channel, y’all are cute just like them too. 💛 Thank you for the advice boys because I literally went for a cleaning today and I asked my dentist what’s a good routine and he literally gave me like a 30 second lesson.
@@swisdom9117 me too! Those are my boys…not me calling four grown men boys…. Smh I meant no harm Dr. John! I respect all four of you and the free education you offer your subbies.

@@arek.b1256 In my office I recommend both depending on your location of greatest concern and your dexterity in your hands. Sonic does the most work requiring the least amount of dexterity. I have both at home and use the Oral B IO more because it cleanse like my instruments at work. I’ve found my older patients prefer Sonicare by Phillips and people who have gagging issues prefer Brain Oral B spin brushes. Hope that helps! Good Brushing can be done with a nice soft toothbrush by hand!
@@arek.b1256 I like both brushes if you have periodontal problems I generally recommend the sonic over the rotary. But for comfort and clean the ultra soft rotary, not the standard head, is excellent if you have a liking for the rotating head. I like to soak my bristle heads in hot tap water just before I brush (warm to body temp is perfect not scalding hot) this allows the nylon bristles more flexibility they still clean just as well!
4:02 So note to myself to not do that anymore. I've done that for a month or two now, it's become a habit. And last month my jaw crack very loudly like never before while I was yawning. Didn't pay much attention to it. It did it again yesterday and this morning I woke up in so much pain I couldn't open my mouth. I can move my mouth with a minimum amplitude in every direction except that exact move to brush my teet. It's painful even with the smallest movement. So yeah beware of this trick, it's not for everyone!
The video was very educative and interesting. I liked how you guys joked around while discussing the issue at hand. I'm not only a heater but also a doer
Thank you for reminding us about how important flossing is to be healthy, teethwise. And thank you so much for making it fun! I'm definitely that kid...okay, that adult child that resists flossing. I'm going to work on building good flossing habits from now on.
Dentist here and I just tell most patients there's no need to use mouthwashes (with the exception of periodontal problems and such). Sometimes my braces patients comes back with more staining on their teeth. Some mouthwashes just make it worse than not using it. Stick with good old "toothgumbrushing" and flossing.
well it depends, you shouldn't use listerine or rinse with clorhexidine (stains your teeth), but a mouthwash containing 0.2% sodium fluoride is good against cavities.
Thanks loved the great tips!! I been introduced to tongue scrapping by parents from early childhood, so glad about it. Will recommend in INDIA from long time we use this V-shaped tongue scrapper which avoids gagging better & reaches all corners well. Get the stainless-steel V one. But yes recently shifted to electric toothbrush which is more satisfying & effective to the whole oral hygiene. I'm more concious now after read fact that not brushing teeth even one day, has bacteria in count almost of total human population on earth 💀
I have receded gums, and was told to go back to a manual toothbrush and brush as if I’m bringing the gums back toward the teeth. So for my upper teeth, I brush from the top down, and vice versa for the bottom teeth.
How’s that going? I fucked up my guns by brushing So hard they started to pull back. Dentist told me there’s nothing that can be done to fix it except brushing softer and like u said Most of my teeth and guns are good except one which has receded a pretty decent amount I was going through the comment looking for someone talking about it
Thank you so much for explaining mouth rinse! I did not think as to why my mouth would be dry after using mouth rinse. Please recommend a couple mouth rinses and rate some of the popular ones! I’m curious to see how they all differ and how I will start changing my dental hygiene for the better!
Good to hear that tongue scraping is effective. I vaguely recall some years ago about tongue scraping not actually doing anything, though I can't remember how credible that info was, but I didn't do it because of that. Literally ordering a new tongue scraper now lol.
Oh it very much does do wonders. Haven't you noticed from time to time a small white layer on your tongue? That is a layer of food remnants and bacteria, and if you look after brushing your teeth, it doesn't really go away without scraping it down. Also you can feel the difference when scraping and when not doing so. Your mouth freshness increase quite a lot. 😊
I would be really interested in a video on tips to get your teeth more white. I have really sensitive teeth (it just runs in my family) and I do have them under control pretty well thanks to following the advices my dentists gave me but they said that bleeching and other methods like that would hurt my teeth a lot and they would not be able to handle that as well as whitening products etc. I am not particularly insecure about my teeth, they are alright also color wise, but since I am becoming an actress I would feel more comfortable if my teeth were a bit more white, especially for screen work. As always thank you for tips and your well made videos! Also: you and Jack were hilarious together! Loved your bromance vibes!
Search up laser whitening, it's the safest method and it's not invasive like bleaching. It lasts from 6 months up to a year+ if you take care of your teeth. It leaves the teeth dry sometimes as a side effect but that only lasts for 12 to 36 hours.
Problem for me was dentists just saying I should brush my teeth better or telling me I should do "this" while another one says the opposite. Before I got my braces was when a dentist would actually listen to my questions and give advice, told me I need to brush longer on the same spot ,use mouthwash, should floss and get a extra tooth brush for my gums (which have always been a massive problem) My teeth actually got better with that ! When I got my braces it was a massive step backwards ,but I just added more extra steps and that somewhat works for me ,can't floss though anymore (just does nothing for me ) But even with all that ,I still learnt things from this video !
I used to brush once a day, no floss and no mouthwash. Now I brush twice a day, floss, and use therabreath. thank goodness I learned better hygiene overtime lol
Here's my order: 1. Floss: Since it's the most annoying but important step, why not do it first and just get it out of the way? 2. Tongue scrape. I always wash and sanitize it after use because this thing picls up a lot of gross stuff. 3. Mouthwash. I use Therabreath products because they aren't joking when they say their mouthwashes can wipe out even the most powerful onion. In the morning I use Invigorating Icy Mint to freshen breath and at night I use Clean Mint to prevent gum disease. 4. After using mouthwash I give it five or so minutes to steep and take full effect before brushing In the morning I'll shave and at night I take a shower. 5. Brush. I use an electric toothbrush that notifies me when to switch quadrants with any standard anticavity toothpaste. Once the two minutes of brushing the teeth are up, I'll brush the rest of my mouth: gums, the whole tongue as a whole going as far back as possible and the roof of my mouth. 6. Once per month I'll use a scaler on any noticeable plaque buildup in an area I can safely do. This is mainly just for aesthetics; obviously I will leave it to my dentist to do the full deep clean.
There are toothbrushes with textured backs that are meant to scrape the tongue, so you're using the plastic part instead of the bristles to scrape the tongue. I feel it serves the same purpose as the separate tongue scraper, just not as wide
Thank you for the upload Dr Yoo! May we please get some recommendations for oral hygiene products? Especially the mouthwash, tongue scraper and whitening.
yes. will compile some products i personally like / recommend in future videos. as for tongue scraper - no particular brand. mouthrinse - ACT, Therabreath, elementa - are all non-acidic. whitening - start with over the counter (NON CHARCOAL) and if want to see better results, then seek dentist for professional in-office options, such as trays, gels, and lights. my whitening rec for in-office are opalescence & zoom
Hi Dr John Yoo, in the video you mention to not use a toothbrush to scrape your tongue. What is your opinion on using a string of floss? Would you ultimately end of recommending a tongue scraper? 7:48
it’s better not to rinse with water after brushing your teeth because the paste protects the teeth from biofilm and if you are rinsing with water this protective layer disappears
More videos like these please! I only just found out about some of these things in my 30's and common sense is not common! Would love to learn more dental hygiene. How different foods abd eating/drinking styles affect health. How dental hygiene/health relates to general health. Mouth care basics are a ++++++++ Lol: "I like to push myself...to be uncomfortable...thats how you grow!" 😂😂😂
very informative!!! l have put flossing step as my last step of the routine!!!no wonder I was told by my dentist the other day that l have tooth decay again😢I’m gonna change it to save my poor teeth😢
Thank you guys so much! Lately I have been focusing on improving myself both mentally and physically (that includes my dental) so I now know what to go out and buy to get a better dental
Doc please do demo for all the step that you tell on how to use those tools like the tongue scraper and also how to brush the back tooth cause this is the hardest part when i brush
HI Dr Yoo just wanted to get your take on mouth wash, I've read that mouth wash shouldn't be used after brushing because it washes away all the fluoride from the toothpaste, is their any truth to that?. When is the best time to use mouth wash? and how often is it once or twice a day?
Great question. There are fluoride mouth rinses that can be used right after brushing, but for many rinses that do not contain fluoride, it is generally recommended to wait 20 min after brushing to rinse out. However, if you find that to be difficult to maintain this lag time in a routine, you can also use a non-acidic mouthrinse after eating and before your brushing session. For example, after I drink my morning coffee, I will rinse with mouthrinse, wait about 30 min, and then brush. There are no limits to how often you can mouthrinse - again, as long as not acidic. There are many nuances to a routine that I didn't want to delve into in too much detail. hope this helps clarify!
I prefer irrigator instead of floss and I used to scrape my tongue with a metal teaspoon before I bought a plastic tongue-scraper. Also I clean my tongue before brushing teeth and gently massage tongue with toothbrush after with a bit of a toothpaste. Dunno if it´s right but I also use filtered water with a pinch of baking soda as a mouthwash coz market ones always left my mouth really sour.
I'm proud of myself for doing everything right 😁. The only thing I can't figure out is the PH level of my mouthwash, lol. It doesn't say it anywhere on the bottle or online 🤷🏻♀️.
Most mouthwashes that appear in advertisements have the pH under 5.5 :)) Colgate and Listerine for example. If the mouthwash stings when using it, it probably has a very acid pH. Although I don't really agree with the doctors in the video. The acidity, for me atleast, increases the saliva produciton which corects the pH level. And I've noticed that stronger, acidic mouthwashes tend to keep the freshness for longer. You can also dillute it a bit, if it really feels too strong.
I'm surprised you didn't mention this, but how do you keep your tools clean? How often should you change/throw out your toothbrush? How do you clean the tongue scraper?
LOL 30 seconds into this video and my overly sensitive gag reflex said absolutely not.😂 I do have tongue scrapers but I will admit it's frustrating to use them. It seems simple but I have to gear up for it.
Im not a kid but you def won me with the story you tell the kids about flossing, I have braces and just hate doing it but thank u for changing that pov.
I’ve heard about tongue scraping, but I’ve never done it, before. I was wondering about it triggering the gag reflex, so thanks for talking about that! I’m going to go look for a tongue scraper. I also appreciate you talking about mouthwashes and avoiding ones with alcohol. I started looking for ones without alcohol many years ago, and it’s good to know that was the right decision. I’ve always used a manual toothbrush, but I’m thinking of getting an electric one. Is there any difference in using electric vs. manual, or do you still rotate the electric toothbrush in a circular motion? Your videos are always so fun and you explain things so well. And I also appreciate how you threw in to not feel bad if we haven’t been doing some of the steps. 😊
😂😂 Haha love this and love the way you skirt round the innuendo 😜 within this video it’s to funny 😂 but you give such great advice and tonsil stones only just learned these were a thing 🤭😊
2:28 did anybody else watch the cdrama, the starry love, and laugh at this analogy because it reminded them of chao feng the third prince in the void realm? lol
It was a fun video to watch :) Im using 3% h2o2 without stabilizers as a mouth wash (Thin it out with water before) There are specific cautions one has to know about when using h2o2, but basically its a already in many tooth pastes and as far as I heard they are using h202 in whitening products as well. The reasoning is that Im living a very chemical aware life, used to have health problems and solved them by learning about chemicals.

well it depends, you shouldn't use listerine or rinse with clorhexidine (stains your teeth), but a mouthwash containing 0.2% sodium fluoride is good against cavities.
Finally an upload! I really love your videos whatever the topic may be. Watching from Kenya 🇰🇪♥️
I saw love in jack’s eyes 💗
The "Actual footage of jack and his friend" 😂😂😂
Can we take a minute to appreciate how freaking handsome John and Jack are??? 😍
you win a tongue scraper for this kind comment. only lightly used
A vlog about whitening teeth, pls! Been thinking of the pros and cons about it coz I wanna give it a try! Thanks!!
Thanks loved the great tips!!
I been introduced to tongue scrapping by parents from early childhood, so glad about it.
Will recommend in INDIA from long time we use this V-shaped tongue scrapper which avoids gagging better & reaches all corners well. Get the stainless-steel V one.
But yes recently shifted to electric toothbrush which is more satisfying & effective to the whole oral hygiene. I'm more concious now after read fact that not brushing teeth even one day, has bacteria in count almost of total human population on earth 💀
I have receded gums, and was told to go back to a manual toothbrush and brush as if I’m bringing the gums back toward the teeth. So for my upper teeth, I brush from the top down, and vice versa for the bottom teeth.
How’s that going? I fucked up my guns by brushing So hard they started to pull back.
Dentist told me there’s nothing that can be done to fix it except brushing softer and like u said
Most of my teeth and guns are good except one which has receded a pretty decent amount
I was going through the comment looking for someone talking about it
Little tip: if while scraping your tongue you breathe through your nose instead of your mouth it will eliminate or greatly limit the gag reflex :)
I simply hold my breath 😂
Bro definitely plan on watching you guys for now own bro, also “I’m a certified freak, seven days a week”
Thank you so much for explaining mouth rinse! I did not think as to why my mouth would be dry after using mouth rinse. Please recommend a couple mouth rinses and rate some of the popular ones! I’m curious to see how they all differ and how I will start changing my dental hygiene for the better!
TheraBreath Mild Mint was shown in the video.
Good to hear that tongue scraping is effective. I vaguely recall some years ago about tongue scraping not actually doing anything, though I can't remember how credible that info was, but I didn't do it because of that. Literally ordering a new tongue scraper now lol.
Oh it very much does do wonders. Haven't you noticed from time to time a small white layer on your tongue? That is a layer of food remnants and bacteria, and if you look after brushing your teeth, it doesn't really go away without scraping it down. Also you can feel the difference when scraping and when not doing so. Your mouth freshness increase quite a lot. 😊
This guy talks about a lot of adult matters for a pediatric dentist 😂 On another note, I found the video informative, thank you!
Which mouthrinses do you recommend to both use and steer away from?
I would be really interested in a video on tips to get your teeth more white. I have really sensitive teeth (it just runs in my family) and I do have them under control pretty well thanks to following the advices my dentists gave me but they said that bleeching and other methods like that would hurt my teeth a lot and they would not be able to handle that as well as whitening products etc. I am not particularly insecure about my teeth, they are alright also color wise, but since I am becoming an actress I would feel more comfortable if my teeth were a bit more white, especially for screen work. As always thank you for tips and your well made videos! Also: you and Jack were hilarious together! Loved your bromance vibes!
Search up laser whitening, it's the safest method and it's not invasive like bleaching. It lasts from 6 months up to a year+ if you take care of your teeth. It leaves the teeth dry sometimes as a side effect but that only lasts for 12 to 36 hours.
6:44 I’m waiting for John to make fun of the “stick it as far back as you can” line
took up all of my energy to stay professional

Welcome Back. So nice and relax video💙
Best super freaks I've come across in a long time thank you for the video it was extremely informative and entertaining you guys rock
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Problem for me was dentists just saying I should brush my teeth better or telling me I should do "this" while another one says the opposite.
Before I got my braces was when a dentist would actually listen to my questions and give advice, told me I need to brush longer on the same spot ,use mouthwash, should floss and get a extra tooth brush for my gums (which have always been a massive problem)
My teeth actually got better with that !
When I got my braces it was a massive step backwards ,but I just added more extra steps and that somewhat works for me ,can't floss though anymore (just does nothing for me )
But even with all that ,I still learnt things from this video !
I used to brush once a day, no floss and no mouthwash. Now I brush twice a day, floss, and use therabreath. thank goodness I learned better hygiene overtime lol
You floss twice a day?
I'm actually at the same place where you were. I'm trying to learn. 😢
Here's my order:
1. Floss: Since it's the most annoying but important step, why not do it first and just get it out of the way?
2. Tongue scrape. I always wash and sanitize it after use because this thing picls up a lot of gross stuff.
3. Mouthwash. I use Therabreath products because they aren't joking when they say their mouthwashes can wipe out even the most powerful onion. In the morning I use Invigorating Icy Mint to freshen breath and at night I use Clean Mint to prevent gum disease.
4. After using mouthwash I give it five or so minutes to steep and take full effect before brushing In the morning I'll shave and at night I take a shower.
5. Brush. I use an electric toothbrush that notifies me when to switch quadrants with any standard anticavity toothpaste. Once the two minutes of brushing the teeth are up, I'll brush the rest of my mouth: gums, the whole tongue as a whole going as far back as possible and the roof of my mouth.
6. Once per month I'll use a scaler on any noticeable plaque buildup in an area I can safely do. This is mainly just for aesthetics; obviously I will leave it to my dentist to do the full deep clean.
Loved it! And also the bromance 😍 ❤...was lovely to watch
There are toothbrushes with textured backs that are meant to scrape the tongue, so you're using the plastic part instead of the bristles to scrape the tongue. I feel it serves the same purpose as the separate tongue scraper, just not as wide
His videos are always informative and hilarious 😆
Yess.. phone cases and oral care, so relatable for a sponsership...
One question 🙋
How often should you tongue scrap in a day like every time after the meal?
Usually when brushing teeth, but the most important is before bed. A lot of stuff remains on the tongue after eating during a day.
Thank you for the upload Dr Yoo! May we please get some recommendations for oral hygiene products? Especially the mouthwash, tongue scraper and whitening.
yes. will compile some products i personally like / recommend in future videos. as for tongue scraper - no particular brand. mouthrinse - ACT, Therabreath, elementa - are all non-acidic. whitening - start with over the counter (NON CHARCOAL) and if want to see better results, then seek dentist for professional in-office options, such as trays, gels, and lights. my whitening rec for in-office are opalescence & zoom
Dr. Yoo looks like an Asian Cumberbatch! 😂
Love this video btw. Got a tongue scraper today! Bout to start.
Why are they so PRETTYY??!
Hi Dr John Yoo, in the video you mention to not use a toothbrush to scrape your tongue. What is your opinion on using a string of floss? Would you ultimately end of recommending a tongue scraper? 7:48
I like this kind of videos. Very educational 😁 Thank u for sharing Jhon and Jack
i expect all of yall to upload a tongue scraping tutorial
it’s better not to rinse with water after brushing your teeth because the paste protects the teeth from biofilm and if you are rinsing with water this protective layer disappears
I flossed twice so now, my mouth is 80% clean... I DID IT!
Interesting, informative, fun and absolutely amazing ❤👏👏
More videos like these please! I only just found out about some of these things in my 30's and common sense is not common! Would love to learn more dental hygiene. How different foods abd eating/drinking styles affect health. How dental hygiene/health relates to general health. Mouth care basics are a ++++++++
Lol: "I like to push myself...to be uncomfortable...thats how you grow!" 😂😂😂
love the bromance 🙌
Please do a video on tonsil stones, tiny ones, how to manage stinky breath 👍🏽
Question about the tongue scraper! How do you recommend cleaning it after use? Great video btw, very informative!
I use a stainless steel one and place it in boiling water for 15 mins before wiping it down with alcohol
I saw another dentist video where he says dishwasher and metal was the best
very informative!!! l have put flossing step as my last step of the routine!!!no wonder I was told by my dentist the other day that l have tooth decay again😢I’m gonna change it to save my poor teeth😢
I do all of these and a water pick before flossing. And no mouthwash 😊
Thank you Dr John Yoo and Jack! 😊😬🌈🥰
Two of my favorite people!!
The Best M2M ive watched😍😍😍
very entertaining, keep it up doc! i actually have a 5 step routine, first floss, brush, mouth wash, scrap and lastly oil pull.
My routine is similar! Now that’s it’s summer hopefully i can whiten my teeth once a week too
can you oil pull before brushing? i would rather have a lasting mint flavor in my mouth than oil
i already brushed my teeth and youtube recommended this. i’m gonna brush again
Thank you guys so much! Lately I have been focusing on improving myself both mentally and physically (that includes my dental) so I now know what to go out and buy to get a better dental
Doc please do demo for all the step that you tell on how to use those tools like the tongue scraper and also how to brush the back tooth cause this is the hardest part when i brush
HI Dr Yoo just wanted to get your take on mouth wash, I've read that mouth wash shouldn't be used after brushing because it washes away all the fluoride from the toothpaste, is their any truth to that?. When is the best time to use mouth wash? and how often is it once or twice a day?
Great question. There are fluoride mouth rinses that can be used right after brushing, but for many rinses that do not contain fluoride, it is generally recommended to wait 20 min after brushing to rinse out. However, if you find that to be difficult to maintain this lag time in a routine, you can also use a non-acidic mouthrinse after eating and before your brushing session. For example, after I drink my morning coffee, I will rinse with mouthrinse, wait about 30 min, and then brush. There are no limits to how often you can mouthrinse - again, as long as not acidic. There are many nuances to a routine that I didn't want to delve into in too much detail. hope this helps clarify!
Is the therabreath mouthwash that he was holding considered to be one of the "bad" ones or "good" ones. I use that one daily.
Dr john yoo thanks for aploading new videos God bless you always
I prefer irrigator instead of floss and I used to scrape my tongue with a metal teaspoon before I bought a plastic tongue-scraper. Also I clean my tongue before brushing teeth and gently massage tongue with toothbrush after with a bit of a toothpaste. Dunno if it´s right but I also use filtered water with a pinch of baking soda as a mouthwash coz market ones always left my mouth really sour.
I'm proud of myself for doing everything right 😁. The only thing I can't figure out is the PH level of my mouthwash, lol. It doesn't say it anywhere on the bottle or online 🤷🏻♀️.
Most mouthwashes that appear in advertisements have the pH under 5.5 :)) Colgate and Listerine for example. If the mouthwash stings when using it, it probably has a very acid pH. Although I don't really agree with the doctors in the video. The acidity, for me atleast, increases the saliva produciton which corects the pH level. And I've noticed that stronger, acidic mouthwashes tend to keep the freshness for longer. You can also dillute it a bit, if it really feels too strong.
I'm surprised you didn't mention this, but how do you keep your tools clean?
How often should you change/throw out your toothbrush?
How do you clean the tongue scraper?
Thanks from a student dental assistant from France 😃
LOL 30 seconds into this video and my overly sensitive gag reflex said absolutely not.😂 I do have tongue scrapers but I will admit it's frustrating to use them. It seems simple but I have to gear up for it.
making this my step-by-step routine. Thanks for the tips. Keep it up!🪥🦷💎
Im not a kid but you def won me with the story you tell the kids about flossing, I have braces and just hate doing it but thank u for changing that pov.
I’ve heard about tongue scraping, but I’ve never done it, before. I was wondering about it triggering the gag reflex, so thanks for talking about that! I’m going to go look for a tongue scraper. I also appreciate you talking about mouthwashes and avoiding ones with alcohol. I started looking for ones without alcohol many years ago, and it’s good to know that was the right decision.
I’ve always used a manual toothbrush, but I’m thinking of getting an electric one. Is there any difference in using electric vs. manual, or do you still rotate the electric toothbrush in a circular motion?
Your videos are always so fun and you explain things so well. And I also appreciate how you threw in to not feel bad if we haven’t been doing some of the steps. 😊
@Vongola Atzi Thanks! :-)
Where’s the tooth whitening video you said you’ll make please? Loved this, you two are so funny. X
😂😂 Haha love this and love the way you skirt round the innuendo 😜 within this video it’s to funny 😂 but you give such great advice and tonsil stones only just learned these were a thing 🤭😊
2:28 did anybody else watch the cdrama, the starry love, and laugh at this analogy because it reminded them of chao feng the third prince in the void realm? lol
You should give smaller underground creators a chance to collab. Make a video with BlackPink next!
How to Whiten your Teeth ft. Blackpink Rose & JackHanSmiles. Year 2037, calling it now
Thanks for the info! Will you be making a video on how to keep your teeth clean, for those who have braces?
It was a fun video to watch :) Im using 3% h2o2 without stabilizers as a mouth wash (Thin it out with water before) There are specific cautions one has to know about when using h2o2, but basically its a already in many tooth pastes and as far as I heard they are using h202 in whitening products as well. The reasoning is that Im living a very chemical aware life, used to have health problems and solved them by learning about chemicals.
YESS!! Make a video about whitening
