WHICH TOOTHBRUSH? One of the more common questions dentists hear is: “Which toothbrush is best?” There is no universal answer which applies to all patients. In many cases, it really boils down to this: the best brush is the one that you're actually going to use! Probably the least important concern about a toothbrush is the element which many people agonize over — namely, color. When shopping for a brush, pay more attention to quality of the bristles, size of the brush face and length of the handle. You want to be sure that the handle is long enough so that you’ll be able to reach difficult areas at the back of the mouth. And, the brush face should not be so large that you find it difficult to maneuver around to the inner tooth surfaces. Soft bristle brushes are less likely to be misused and irritate gums, but unless used vigorously will be less effective than hard bristle brushes for basic cleaning. Birdless of the particular ush you choose, it should be replaced at least four times a year, more often if it shows signs of excess wear. Presented As A Community Service By: George C. Smith, D.D.S.
