> Brush from top to bottom, not side to side.

Gonna need a cite on that. Pretty sure the recommendation is to hold the brush at 45 degrees and use circular movements.

Interesting. My dentist always told me the direction must be from the root to the top otherwise you would just push the remains of food into the gums - and it seems like a logical advice to follow.
This dental hygienist also says to use a circular motion at and angle. https://youtu.be/FFq-2aA6m8Y?t=50

Maybe bring this up in your next session.
