Wipe, it means wipe. Ancient people used some other means to clean their teeth when they didn't have special brushing tools. The most important way is to wipe your teeth with your hands, hold a mouthwash cup in your left hand and wipe your teeth with your right index finger.

Secondly, users will wipe their teeth with cloth. Among the tombs unearthed in the Tang Dynasty, it is clearly recorded that there are 100 pieces of tooth cleaning cloth presented by the royal family. This means that cloth was also used by ancient people to clean teeth.

Precautions for users to brush their teeth:

The toothbrush is not dipped in water, and the toothpaste is squeezed and brushed slowly, gradually generating some tiny bubbles, so that the cleaning ingredients of the toothpaste can be fully exerted.

On the one hand, transverse brushing can't remove the rubbish between teeth, and at the same time, it may lead to wedge-shaped defect of root, gum damage, dentin sensitivity and other problems.

Everyone's teeth are big and small, the toothbrush is too big, it is not flexible enough to perform tasks in the oral cavity, and the toothbrush is too small to complete large-scale oral cleaning work. Try several more toothbrushes and find the one that suits the user best.
