What percentage of people brush their teeth?

The percentage of people who brush their teeth can vary widely depending on the region, socioeconomic status, and age group being considered. According to various studies and surveys conducted in different countries, it is estimated that around 60% to 90% of the global population brushes their teeth regularly. Some countries, particularly those with well-established dental healthcare systems and higher levels of oral hygiene awareness, may have higher percentages of people who brush their teeth. However, it is important to note that there may still be significant disparities within countries, with certain groups or communities having lower rates of toothbrushing due to various factors such as lack of access to oral hygiene products, poor oral health education, or cultural practices.
