It's great practice to brush your teeth
at least twice a day, floss, and rinse your
toothbrush with water after every use.
Rinsing your toothbrush often helps you to
minimize the accumulation of bacteria and residue.
You may very well know you need to and do
change your child's toothbrush,
but how often should one change out a toothbrush?
Answer: We should change our toothbrush around every 3-4 months
More Facts about changing your toothbrush:
- Bacteria can build up on the brush
- Always replace the brush after illness
- The bristles get worn out, they are not as effective.
- Softer bristles are gentle on gums.
- Maybe it's time to buy a fun toothbrush with a character

- Maybe you need a toothbrush that can help to reach further back on molars
or one with a tongue cleaner
- Brushes come in different shapes, sizes, and designs.
All in all, maintaining your child's dental care
routine can be easy.
