"TOOTHBRUSH"😀
Is there anything so important to know about the toothbrush you BUY.😙😙😗
I guess" YES"
Nowdays in market there are lot many toothbrushes of various designs,shapes,and sizes and because of more influence of TV advertisement, internet ,chemist suggestion and at last our affordability we fail to buy a correct toothbrush for our teeth.
Today while watching an ad on TV ,I felt the manufacturers our more focused on toothpaste than toothbrush.so ,as a Dentist I thought to share some important points while you buy a tooth brush and its importance of brushing.
• At first regarding the head where bristles are placed should be SMALL so as to move easily every corner of our mouth.
•While buying toothbrush it's our common thinking to go for hard bristles as we think it does deep cleansing as well as long lasting,but it's WRONG...........
Soft bristles not only help in protecting tooth enamel even our gums.
•If having a condition that limits your movements,then investing in an electric tooth brush is a good idea.
•Moreover,the technique we use while brushing also matters to maintain oral hygiene.(Best explained by Dentist)
•Flossing is as important as brushing.
•Change your toothbrush every 3 months, once after you are sick,and once fraded.•
•And at last my dear friends,treat your toothbrush like your password,don't let anybody else use it.
