as a dental hygienist for 20 years , i recommend that people brush for 2 minutes, 2-3 times a day.In that 2 minutes you need to brush all tooth surfaces.Most people don't realize that 2 minutes can be a long time.Every hygienist I know recommends the same thing.Of course you need to floss at least once a day.Rinsing is good afterward,too.If you are not a young kid anymore and you don't get a lot of cavities you could use an antibacterial rinse, not fluoride.How long should one Brush his teeth in the morning ?
People generally say ';2 minutes,'; but you could brush only the front teeth for 2 minutes and forget to brush the rest!





For me, time is irrelevant when it comes to my oral care. I brush my teeth until the FEEL clean. You have to be the judge of that. When you are done brushing, run your tongue around the fronts and backs of your teeth. If you feel any rough patches, brush again and be sure to concentrate on the rough area.





Also, flossing is a MUST. For proper oral Hygiene, you should floss at least one a day. I floss after every time I brush. The floss can reach into places that a tooth brush simply can not reach.





Also, after you have brushed and flossed, be sure to use an alcohol free, fluoride mouth wash. This will help strengthen your teeth and give you fresh clean breath!





It may sound like a lot... and it is! But I would rather take the time to take care of my smile then have it all fall out :(





I can brush my teeth, check my teeth, brush them again if needed, thoroughly floss, and use mouth wash in about 10 minutes (5 minutes if I am in a hurry). If you are just starting to properly take care of your teeth and forming good habits, it may take you 15 or 20 minutes! But practice makes perfect, young grasshopper!





Take care.
2 mins with an electric toothbrush is the standard.


I would say about 3 with a regular toothbrush.
u should brush at least 3 to 4 minutes in the morning . brushing for more time also leads to the loss of enamel which may cause severe ake in the teeth
3-4mins
