Published in Dental Hygiene 1 min read

Based on the provided reference, it seems the question refers to using a rubber tip gum stimulator, not chewing gum. Let's clarify and answer the question: How do I use a rubber tip gum stimulator to improve my dental health?

Using a rubber tip gum stimulator involves gentle and precise movements along the gum line to stimulate the tissues.

Here's a breakdown of how to use a rubber tip gum stimulator:

  • Apply moderate pressure along the gum line.
  • Move the tip along the gum line.
  • Work around the entire mouth.
  • Stimulate both the outside of gums.

Here's how to properly use a gum stimulator:

  1. Gentle Pressure: Apply only very moderate pressure along the gum line (0:08).
  2. Movement: Move the tip along the gum line (0:08).
  3. Complete Coverage: Work around the entire mouth on both the outside of the gums (0:08).
