Brush your teeth to the beat of these expert-selected songs for maximum effectiveness in your daily routine.
As dental professionals know, proper toothbrushing follows a precise rhythm and structure. A dentist collaborated with a musicologist to pinpoint the ideal tracks that align perfectly with recommended techniques.
The six best songs for toothbrushing
1. Psy – Gangnam Style
2. Rihanna – Diamonds
3. Gotye – Somebody That I Used to Know
4. Olly Murs – Troublemaker
5. Wiley – Heatwave
6. Cheryl Cole – Call My Name
Ideal Brushing Technique
For optimal results, brush at least 35 times per side, ideally completing seven strokes across five key areas. Songs with eight bars followed by two sets of four bars, plus a double chorus and bridge, provide the perfect tempo and flow.
Try It Out
Picture yourself channeling Gangnam Style at the sink—it could be the fun solution to encourage kids who resist brushing.
