That\u2019s not exactly <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>. But is it possible to over brush your teeth? If you\u2019re feeling a bit of tooth and gum sensitivity, you might want to rethink your routine.<\/p>\n<p>As it turns out, you can over brush your teeth, but it\u2019s not so much about how much your brush your teeth. Instead, over brushing comes down to brushing your teeth too hard.<\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Kami Hoss, founder of The Super Dentist, brushing too hard could contribute to tooth sensitivity and gum damage. She <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/redirect.viglink.com\/?key=432db143fab4826620fe7b8eb31c6901&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sensodyne.com%2Fen-us%2Foral-health-tips%2Fcan-you-brush-teeth-too-hard%2F&amp;cuid=xid:{xid}&amp;___trxnet=vg\">explained to Sensodyne<\/a> that most people over brush because they\u2019re attempting to kill all the bacteria in the mouth and believe it will give them a better clean.<\/p>\n<p>Gene Romo, DDS, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.everydayhealth.com\/hs\/sensitive-teeth\/brush-teeth-too-hard\/\">told Everyday Health<\/a> that people often mistakenly believe that vigorous brushing helps to whiten teeth as well when, in fact, it has the opposite effect. Romo explained that over brushing can wear down the white enamel leading to your tooth looking yellow.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-box  \">\n<div class=\"product-img product-img-noaward\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41BvSE4yaXL._SL160_.jpg\" height=\"147px\" width=\"147px\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>How can you tell if you\u2019re over brushing your teeth? Tooth and gum sensitivity could be a sign (but could also be signs of a variety of other oral health issues). Instead, Romo said to look at your toothbrush. If you\u2019ve had it for three months or less, it should still look new. If you haven\u2019t had it long and its bristles are flared and beat up, you might be brushing too hard.<\/p>\n<p>As for the proper way to brush, Romo said to use a soft-bristled brush that\u2019s American Dental Association-<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roved and use short, wide strokes to clean the outward-facing and inward-facing sides of your teeth. If you\u2019re using an electric toothbrush, just glide it along your teeth without applying additional pressure. Also, be sure to brush for a full two minutes twice a day.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been feeling extra sensitive lately or have noticed your toothbrushes wearing down over time, maybe take it easy on those chompers for a while.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '267914477473431');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
