Properly storing your toothbrush can help to prevent dental problems like gum disease and tooth decay. Here are common mistakes people make when storing their toothbrushes.
Main points:
– Rinse after use. Always wash your toothbrush thoroughly after use to remove food residue and bacteria.
– Don’t store the toothbrush in the case. Lack of air circulation turns your toothbrush into a bacteria-suitable environment. Let it air-dry.
– Replace your toothbrush every 3 months or when the bristles get frayed.
Consult your dentist on the best toothbrush for your teeth to prevent plaque and infections.
