牙齿护理—Dental Care

Every morning, I brush my teeth right after I eat breakfast. I put a little toothpaste on my toothbrush and then brush for about two or three minutes. I brush up and down to reach the spaces between my teeth. I also use dental floss to remove food particles between my teeth. I used to use an electric toothbrush, but it didn't work very well. I'm also using a tooth whitening kit¹ to whiten my teeth because I think a brighter smile will make a better impression on people and will give me more self-confidence. When I finish brushing, I rinse² my mouth and my toothbrush. Then, I put my toothbrush away in the bathroom medicine cabinet.
