Have you ever looked at your dentist funny when they remind you that you need to replace your toothbrush at minimum every 3 months?? What a waste of money right? WRONG!
Dentists have regularly encouraged our patients to replace their toothbrushes every three months. We also encourage you to replace your toothbrush after being sick. We understand that a lot of patients don’t follow these instructions and continue to let their toothbrushes get frayed and splayed before replacing after their 6 month cleanings (Free toothbrush!!).
Here at First Impressions we want you to understand the reasons behind the need to replace your toothbrush. I promise it is not just to feed those Colgate and Crest bank accounts.
Check out this video our friends over at IFLScience posted detailing why it is so important to keep a fresh toothbrush. The older the brush gets, the more bacteria it holds and the less effective it becomes!
