How often should you change your bamboo toothbrush?

Generally, it is recommended that you change your toothbrush every three months. This is considered an adequate period of time to ensure effective brushing and maintain oral hygiene.
But how to choose the ideal toothbrush? Is choosing by price enough?

Here are some tips that can help you:

  1. Go for a toothbrush with soft or ultra-soft bristles: Hard-bristle brushes can do some damage to your teeth enamel and gums, leading to sensitivity and pain. Choose a toothbrush with soft or ultra-soft bristles, which are gentler on your teeth and gums.

  2. Look for toothbrushes with a small head and closely packed bristles: Toothbrushes with a small head and bristles all close together make it easier to reach those tricky spots in your mouth, helping to remove plaque, prevent cavities, and keeping those gums healthy.

  3. Chuck out the old toothbrush regularly: No matter what type of toothbrush you go for, make sure you replace it every three months or when the bristles are worn out. Worn out toothbrushes with frayed bristles isn’t going to do your teeth any favours and can contribute to dental problems and toothache.

Remember to combine using the right toothbrush with a gentle and brushing technique. Don't forget to floss daily and keep up with regular dental check-ups to keep your oral health in check and avoid toothache.
