According to researchers at the Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg,  25% of Sweden teens do not brush their teeth regularly and only 10% of Swedes know how to use toothpaste effectively.

According to the researchers, Swedes could significantly improve their oral health by learning how to effectively use fluoride toothpaste. In addition, knowledge about brushing teeth effectively must be improved and easy to understand.

The researchers highlight that individuals should: Brush their teeth at least twice a day with toothpaste (after breakfast and before bedtime)  Use toothpaste with more fluoride if cavities occur often and avoid rinsing with water after brushing.
