Q:
How often should a toothbrush be replaced?
A:
Depending on each individual’s brushing
techniques determines when you should replace your toothbrush.
Individuals who brush harder and push the bristles out of form
obviously need to replace their brush before others that don’t brush
as hard. Most toothbrushes today have indicators on them informing you
when they need replaced. There are certain times they should be
replaced prior to the indicator showing. For instance, whenever you
are sick or have some type or oral infection, they should be replaced
immediately to prevent the ongoing spreading of germs. |
