To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth,
divide your mouth into 4 sections: outside top, inside top,
outside bottom and inside bottom teeth. Begin brushing
in section 1 (outside top teeth) and brush for 30 seconds
before moving to section 2 (inside top teeth). Continue
brushing for 30 seconds in each section progressing
through all 4 sections until you’ve brushed for 2 minutes.
