Are You Brushing Right? The Truth About Oral Care Routines

Most of us learned how to brush our teeth as kids and never questioned it again. But here’s the truth: most adults aren’t brushing correctly — and that’s why plaque, bad breath, and gum problems still show up.

Let’s break down what a truly effective oral care routine looks like and how toothpaste tablets can help make it cleaner, simpler, and better for you and the planet.

1. Brushing Too Fast Is the #1 Mistake

Most people spend only 45 seconds brushing, while dentists recommend at least 2 full minutes. Try setting a timer or brushing to a short song to make sure you’re hitting that mark.

2. Ingredients Matter More Than You Think

Traditional toothpaste often contains SLS, parabens, and microplastics. These ingredients can dry out your mouth and harm the environment.
That’s why ORLUMA toothpaste tablets are made with natural polishing agents like microcrystalline cellulose — gentle on enamel, powerful on plaque.

3. Rinse Less, Benefit More

Did you know that rinsing immediately after brushing washes away the fluoride or active ingredients?
With ORLUMA tablets, you get a balanced dose that sticks just right — no need for extra rinsing or mess.

4. Sustainability Starts with Small Habits

Switching to tablets eliminates plastic tubes, wasted paste, and overuse. One tablet = one perfect dose — no waste, no guesswork.

The takeaway:
Brushing right isn’t just about time — it’s about what’s on your brush and how you use it.
So next time you reach for your toothpaste, think smarter. Think sustainable. Think ORLUMA.
