: Toothbrushing is a recommended daily practice that helps sustain oral health. However, if performed improperly, it can lead to loss of tooth structure and injury to soft tissues. We explored this topic with an extensive literature search. : A literature search was performed across textbooks and journals for original research and review articles in Scopus, PubMed, PubMed Central, and Cochrane databases, published between 1967 and 2024. : The search result yielded 118 articles that were suitable to include in this review. Toothpaste abrasivity plays a major role in combination with toothbrush forces. Therefore, maintaining forces between 2 and 3 N may be gentler on the tissue. Electric toothbrushes are safer. Toothpastes with low RDA values are also less abrasive. Active ingredients in whitening and desensitizing toothpaste can induce tooth wear. Remineralizing agents have the potential to manage the associated lesions. : Cervical abrasions and gingival recession occur frequently due to oral hygiene measures. Standards in oral hygiene aid to match patient needs can prevent hard and soft tissue loss.
刷牙是一项推荐的日常活动,有助于维持口腔健康。然而,如果操作不当,它可能导致牙齿结构丧失和软组织损伤。我们通过广泛的文献检索来探讨这个话题。:在教科书和期刊中进行文献检索,查找1967年至2024年间发表在Scopus、PubMed、PubMed Central和Cochrane数据库中的原创研究和综述文章。:检索结果产生了118篇适合纳入本综述的文章。牙膏的磨损性与牙刷的力量共同起主要作用。因此,将力量保持在2至3牛之间可能对组织更温和。电动牙刷更安全。RDA值低的牙膏磨损性也较小。美白和脱敏牙膏中的活性成分会导致牙齿磨损。再矿化剂有可能处理相关病变。:由于口腔卫生措施,颈部磨损和牙龈退缩经常发生。符合患者需求的口腔卫生辅助标准可以防止硬组织和软组织丧失。
