The morning, after every meal, before bedtime, ritual most of us remember to do while conscious is mostly performed in an upward or downward motion or the backward and forward method ? Our dental hygiene minus Fluoridation is very important, so how do you brush those beautiful teeth ?

Mostly I brush in a circular motion actually. I do a bit of everything. Up, down, side to side, circles...

Both for me. I also angle my toothbrush 45 degrees to my teeth, gets the miniscule bits of food out better. I also make sure to clean my tongue.

Up, down, side to side, back and fourth vigourously washing them teeth nice and squeaky clean minus the fluoride you know . . Have you been to our site where on the earthSave page resources for keeping our water cleanest, fields & forrsts greenest and skies bluest all also focusing on the dangers of adding fluoride to the water ? What the heck is wrong with this country ?

"up and down of course" . . . said as if i knew this and interesting to learn the longer your teeth are exposed to yuckiness that they get scrubbed ever so vigourously ! Well no foot in mouth here,ha ha, a good answer and made into my survey-ing comparative results. 'till next time
