How much toothpaste should I apply when I brush my teeth? The more dosage is not, the better! Netizens bluntly said that most of them were in the sink

In dental health advertising, the model proudly puts out a huge toothpaste from the toothpaste tube, and confidently brushes the beard that is as white as a pearl. Such marketing suggests that in order to achieve the same perfect beard, it is very important to use the same method, but more and more people believe that those marketing personnel are cheating so that consumers can use their own toothpaste products more, and they must speed up their purchase.

Daily Mail Report, social media Reddit users posted "LifeProTips", pointing out that people use toothpaste like advertising, but in fact, they use too much; in fact, as long as they put out a pea-like amount, brushing their teeth is perfect. Everyone left a message saying that consumers use a lot of toothpaste for big toothpaste every time, just use a pea-based toothpaste to brush the same effect, so there is no need to doubt it; the more used toothpaste will only be discharged and fall into the sink; if you don’t believe it, you will know it. The person who posted said that he dared to make a promise that the amount of toothpaste is used as long as a strip of peas is not different.

Everyone was surprised to say that they really didn't have to use so much toothpaste, but they thought the view of the poster was completely reasonable.

Another user even pointed out that it is much more difficult to put any toothpaste that is larger than the size of a pea on an electric toothbrush. Another user responded that it was OK. He saw that his mother had a long amount of toothpaste, which was always very different. Compared to his mother's, his own toothpaste "had definitely hurt a few more."

The third user agreed that he started doing that, brushing his teeth twice a day, and the toothpaste was sucked for 6 months.

Some people left messages saying that the dosage in toothpaste advertisements is just a common case in marketing. One person left a message saying that his friend told him a story, saying that the two of them walked into a bar in London and asked everyone to buy wine because they taught toothpaste companies how to increase their sales by 30% and earn money. Their method is to expand the mouth of the toothpaste tube directly because people often push from one end of the toothbrush to the other end, so the amount of toothpaste is squeezed out.

Just some people in the comment area disagree, pointing out that many sources of news require adults to use toothpaste more. A Danish message said that the recommended amount of their country is as big as a manicure. A Swedish said that they were asked to use two centimeters of toothpaste.

One even quoted a study from the National Library of Medicine. The research results pointed out that using one gram of toothpaste can achieve the best dental effect without brushing the teeth.
