Why You Must Change a Toothbrush?



Here are some reasons why you should change your toothbrush:

After around three months of usage, the toothbrush comes to the end of its life and gets to a point where it is no longer as effective for cleaning around the tooth surfaces and this also includes brush heads on electric toothbrushes.

Research shows that a new toothbrush can remove more plaque than one that is worn out.

As the bristles become worn they become more prone to bacterial or fungal growth.

Using a toothbrush more than three months might give you dental problems, halitosis or bad breath.
Worn out bristles can cause gum bleeding.

It is also advised to change your toothbrush after you had an infection such as flu, cold, mouth sores or a sore throat. If you get sick make sure that change your brush even if it’s not 3 months old yet, as bacteria can breed on those bristles
