 Hello, everybody. Andrew Maeski here with Dental L. So this little guy here comes with me everywhere. When I see patients in their own home, he just comes with me, he is so helpful and he loves it. So what I want to be showing you guys today is how to teach the little ones how to brush, okay? Because yes, it may seem obvious and it doesn't matter what age they are. They could be three, they could be 10, well, okay, maybe not 10, but it just kind of helps to see and to show them how they should be brushing their teeth properly because when I see kids, I find that they are brushing their teeth, but it's usually not for long enough or they don't get all of the area. So they might just kind of be brushing the teeth like this. Okay, so they might think, okay, mom, dad, I'm doing such a good job, like look at me, right? But clearly they are missing all of the areas on the inside, the inside here and trust me, that's just not enough time to get all of the plaque off. So when I am showing kids how to brush, I do tell them to take their toothbrush and brush everywhere. So kids, it's good to tell them either start on the top first or the bottom first so that they kind of have a sense of direction to go. So I might say, start on your top teeth first and do all of the outsides first, okay? And then even when I say that, that might not be enough. So then I tell them, make sure to get the whole tooth because if they're just only doing this, you see how they could be missing the area right near the gum line. And this always happens, 99.9% of my child patients miss that area where the gum and the tooth come together. So I take it a step further and I say, brush your top teeth but then brush right where the gum and the tooth come together. So that way, that's nice and clean where the gum and the tooth meet, brush on the outside and then close the mouth and then do the bottom parts of the top teeth. And I say close the mouth because then it just kind of helps them to get a little bit of the bottom teeth at the same time. So I tell them to do that for the bottom teeth too now. So I will tell them to brush the bottom right where the gum and the tooth come together like that, so I'm obviously doing this quickly but where the gum and the tooth come together and then close the mouth, close the mouth and then do the same thing. Brush the top part of the bottom teeth because then they're still able to get, it's kind of tricky, they're still able to get the top teeth too at the same time but don't forget to brush the inside. So since they're now on the bottom then I will tell them you have to brush the inside by the tongue, so same thing. Brush right where the gum and the tooth come together kind of like that and then brush the tops of the teeth. This is where kids get cavities often are the chewing surfaces of their teeth on the top and the bottom because they can't see them, it's kind of hard to reach but make sure they do that well. Another tricky spot is on the inside of the bottom teeth right here and mom's dads, they're the same way, even I am. My tartar starts down here, plaque and tartar starts right there. So make sure to tell them to take their toothbrush and you might have to kind of move it along like this because if you're doing this, you are missing a lot of those areas. So you kind of have to move it inside and go out. Does everybody see that? So kind of go out. There might be some saliva on the mirror, it's hard to say, so it can get messy but that's the only way to get those bottom teeth. So not like this, you guys, that helps but then always make sure take the top of that toothbrush like this to get in there, okay? That's the best thing to do, same thing on the top. Not just kind of like this but kind of get in there and make sure to get every last two, okay? And of course on the top, make sure to tell them to do the inside right where the tongue or the roof of the mouth is, okay? And then the chewing surfaces. So he has a nice little mouth here and this is a really big toothbrush but the chewing surfaces, make sure that they do those at the end and last but not least, I do tell them again to close the mouth and do it just one more time. All those teeth that they're able to see, okay? Now it does help to have an electric toothbrush because there's usually a timer on those electric toothbrushes and it does kind of help to move the brush a little more for them. So that does really help. I think all kids should have an electric toothbrush but that's just my opinion but I have seen kids do amazing without an electric toothbrush too but it does help to have an electric toothbrush, okay? So I hope that helped you guys. He is so helpful and I bring him with me everywhere. So if your kid needs help with how to brush, I can show them and they love him. He's so much fun. So thank you guys for watching. Any questions, let us know and we will see you in the next one.
