2. Hold your toothbrush with only 3 fingers.
Holding your toothbrush like a pen can result in the right pressure being applied to your teeth. This is because you’ll be able to control the force of your hand with precision. If you hold your toothbrush by wrapping your fingers around it, then you won’t be able to tell how hard you’re brushing. You’ll end up with too much pressure and the bristles won’t be able to reach between all of your teeth.
