This helps remove plaque and bacteria, which are the things that can cause cavities and gum problems. Just make sure the cloth or gauze is clean before you use it!
You can make a simple toothpaste at home using baking soda and water. Mix a little baking soda with a small amount of water to create a paste. Then, use your finger or a cloth to apply it to your teeth. Baking soda is great because it helps clean your teeth and makes them feel fresh.
