This might sound pretty straight forward. But here are some helpful tips you may not have heard of before when it comes to taking proper care of your toothbrush.
Don’t use too much pressure when brushing – A lot of people think to get a deep clean and get all the plaque off, you need to brush really hard. However, this is harmful to your enamel and gums. Not to mention, your toothbrush bristles will also suffer and start to fray and fall out of place.
Rinse after use – Always rinse with warm, running water after brushing.
Store it upright to air dry – Make sure you let your toothbrush air dry upright after rinsing.
Replace it every 3 months – Not only can bacteria build-up, but the bristles become less effective over time and move or fall out of place.
