Brushing twice a day is important, but using the right toothbrush is equally important for maintaining good oral hygiene.

Over time, toothbrush bristles become worn and may not clean your teeth effectively.

 

Replace Your Toothbrush Every 3 Months

As a general guideline, replace your toothbrush or electric toothbrush head approximately every 3 months.

 

Replace It Earlier If Bristles Are Worn

If the bristles become frayed, bent, or spread out before three months, it is better to replace the toothbrush sooner.

 

After Illness

After certain illnesses, replacing your toothbrush may be considered, especially if advised by your dentist or healthcare professional. Avoid sharing toothbrushes and always store them hygienically.

 

Choose Soft Bristles

For most people, a soft-bristled toothbrush is suitable for cleaning teeth effectively without being unnecessarily harsh on the gums.
