Using the radio to brush your teeth may be a good idea, as the dentist usually recommends brushing for an average length of one song for three to four minutes. Using the egg timer is another way to measure brushing time. Patients often think they brush their teeth longer, but most people brush their teeth in less than a minute.
Instead of brushing your teeth five or more times a day, we advise patients to brush their teeth for three to four minutes a day to make sure you do a thorough job without missing any spots.
