| 02:24 | Visit a dentist: If the teeth are uneven, crowded or jumbled. |
| 02:31 | If cavities are observed in the teeth. |
| 02:34 | If your teeth are sensitive to hot and cold foodstuff. |
| 02:38 | Gently brush the outer and inner side of the chewing area. |
| 02:45 | Also brush the tongue to maintain good breath and to get rid of germs. |
| 02:53 | Miswak is a chewing stick cut from a twig of the peelu tree. |
