Rolling Stroke Method of Brushing
The Rolling Stroke Method of Brushing is certainly a unique
way to brush the teeth. It stimulates the gums for more blood flow, and it also
helps to remove plaque. More specifically, it helps target the gum line. The
Rolling Stroke method isn’t recommended to be used entirely on its own, and it
is often combined with either the Bass or Charter Method. Below are the steps
to follow when using the Rolling Stroke Method:
Place the soft bristled toothbrush apically against the gum line. This means to have the head of the toothbrush near the surface of the teeth with the bristles pointed upward at the gums.
Gently roll the bristles toward the gums and tooth in a semi-circular motion in which the bristles ultimately wipe away from the teeth.
Repeat step two on all areas of the teeth in ten second intervals until the whole arch is completed.
Move to the lower arch and repeat the process, making sure that the bristles are motioned in the proper direction.
Open the mouth and clean the interior surface of the teeth using the same technique.
