How Often Should You Change Your ToothbrushRegular brushing of your teeth is one of the proper dental hygiene habits. Brushing your teeth regularly ensures that you prevent the accumulation of plaque and tartar, therefore steering clear of tooth decay and cavities. With regular dental visits, you will have the best chance of maintaining dental health. While in our office, you will receive important advice that will help you adopt the best dental hygiene habits and standards. One of the vital proper dental hygiene habits is changing your toothbrush regularly.

Dentist's Recommendation


We recommend changing of toothbrush every three months cycle. An old toothbrush may have worn-out bristles which will be ineffective in removing plaque from your teeth. Ensure you get a toothbrush that has firm bristles. This is only possible by regularly swapping your toothbrush with a new one.

Why is it important to regularly change your toothbrush


Swapping your toothbrush brings with it several benefits. For instance, a new toothbrush will have firm bristles which are capable of removing plaque from your teeth. Soft bristles in old toothbrushes will leave particles in your teeth, therefore, worsening the accumulation of food particles on your teeth.

Changing your toothbrush also ensures that you prevent using a toothbrush that may have accumulated bacteria. At times, toothbrush acts as a house of bacteria. Therefore, changing your toothbrush ensures that you are using a clean and safe brush for proper dental hygiene.
