The brush market is extremely diverse.

Brush selection

How many types of toothbrushes? The answer is 2: hand brushes and electric brushes.

Handheld brushes are available in a wide variety. Whatever brand choice, make sure the brush you buy is the right size and shape, allowing easy access to every position in your mouth. The material must be durable, the bristles do not fall off, soft enough to clean the tooth surface without damage to other tissues. It is better to choose reputable brands with clear origin.

Electric brushes have been proven to effectively brush them in the same way as regular brushes. People who have difficulty using hand-held brushes (children, the elderly, people with mobility impairments ...) may find the electric brushes easier to use and more comfortable.

Brush cleaning

Do not share toothbrushes.

Rinse your toothbrush with tap water after use to remove all remaining toothpaste and food debris.

Place the brush in a vertical position and let it dry until the next use. If more brushes are placed side by side, keep the brushes away from each other.

Do not cover or store the brush in closed containers often. The wet environment will facilitate the growth of the bacteria over well-ventilated areas.

Replace the new toothbrush every 3-4 months. At this time, the bristles of the brush are worn and fibrous, less effective to clean the teeth. Brushes can wear quickly or slowly depending on the individual. Regularly check the bristles of bristles and replace them sooner if necessary. Children's toothbrush may need to be replaced more often by adults.

Possessing a good tool, the good use is good. Therefore, choosing and preserving the toothbrush is the first important step to having a healthy tooth.
