My parents were very medically neglectful of me growing up. I can count the number of times I've been to a dentist on one hand. As an adult now trying to learn best practices for my health, thank you so much for this super comprehensive info!

[zoeysingh]

This is the best oral care video on the Internet don't really know why people dislike the video. Keep up the good work 👍

[anaarrendell]

This is the absolute best video I've ever watched on oral hygiene!! It's so thorough and complete. None of my dentist or dental hygienist has covered this much information over the years.

[BruceWangInvest]

I’ve been brushing my teeth wrong my whole life

[emzhaek]

I'm a dental hygienist therapist and honestly have NEVER seen a better video than this. It perfectly explains and demonstrates everything patients need to be aware of. Dr Chauhan did an amazing job with explaining all the essentials, only thing I would add to make the video more comprehensive is denture care / implant/bridge care advice.

I try my best during appointments to condense all this info to my patients but unfortunately there's often just not enough time, will definitely be recommending this video a lot from now on !! Thank you :)

Wish I had a friendly dentist. Lol, went to the dentist and got scolded for not taking care of my teeth properly saying my teeth are the worst that my dentist has ever seen at my age. LOL.

[gregstump]

Wait... I've been watching this for 29 Minutes? Where did the time go? Although this isn't an exciting video by any means, I completely lost track of time and watched the entire thing. Great information.

This should be broadcasted in school. Parents not always teach this. Very good and detailed video.

[Catcvcv]

This is the best video i've ever seen on oral heath. They should show it in schools.

[ralph]

This is the most comprehensive, best illustrated and described content I have found on good oral health care. I'm over 65 and honestly, this video includes so much information I can use going forward. Only wish I had had access to it years ago. Thank you so much Dr. Chauhan and support team for this wonderful program.

What an informative video. I’ve only recently learned about spitting but not rinsing. I was brought up to spit and rinse - but my new dentist prescribed me some high fluoride toothpaste and the leaflet that came with it instructed me to leave the fluoride on my teeth for at least half an hour. I broke a tooth in lockdown and developed some cavities below old fillings that I am now having dealt with. I always saw my dentist regularly before lockdown and was quite embarrassed that I hadn’t been for over a year. when I was younger floss etc wasn’t so easily available. I’m still all fingers and thumbs when I try to floss and struggle reaching my back teeth. although I was taught about doing little circular motions I have only heard recently about the 45 degree angle. In lockdown I was a bit depressed too and didn’t always brush twice a day. It’s good to know that it’s never too late to learn new habits and set new goals even with oral care.

Please take care of your teeth and make sure your children brush their teeth. I was difficult to get to brush, please do it for your children. My mouth hurts so much, I had a tooth removed and two wisdom teeth are almost completely rotted out. I drank so much whiskey for pain relief, I hope I never forget to brush again. I moved my toothbrush to my desk so I'm aware of it. It's been a massive improvement from no dental care. I hope to eliminate soda from my diet, I drink three liters a day. I can't believe my teeth aren't worse, I'm so grateful for the teeth I have.

Thank you so much for this video. For what it is I was very engaged. The actor is so sweet, she did a great job teaching us.

I was never taught to brush my teeth as a kid, let alone how.... have my first dentist appointment in over a decade this month. This video helped so much, I floss most days but apparently not correctly ... glad I decided to watch this at 2am haha

[camtonyray]

Holy crap, this is the best explanation I think that anybody can find online - I really felt like this woman is a born leader/speaker!

[sathsah]

This is the best dental hygiene video I have ever seen. Thank you so much. I never new one should not rinse the toothpaste out but just spit out the excess

[mathew]

This has to be the most comprehensive dental care video I've ever watched. I wish I could've seen this when I was a kid.

[starlitecc]

Thank you for going over the different options available & including a breakdown on the proper & the improper ways to use the various dental devices. I appreciated the lack of medical jargon- it made the presentation clear, easy to follow, and informative !👍😊
