When choosing a suitable toothbrush, keep the following in mind: The size of the toothbrush should fit the size of your mouth and reach all parts of your mouth. If you have sensitive teeth, use a soft toothbrush. Try not to choose hard toothbrushes as they usually do not have the correct fibers and may damage the gums.
Use a toothbrush made of high quality fibers. Toothbrushes with hard bristles often damage the teeth and gums and increase the porosity of the teeth. Change your toothbrush every two months. Do not use a badly shaped toothbrush and replace it with a new one.
Some toothbrushes are designed to change color after their expiration date. Be sure to change your toothbrush after an illness. The buildup of germs on the toothbrush leads to recurring sore throats, sinus infections, and infections. Some patients also need to change their toothbrush every one to three weeks.
