When you need to change your toothbrush

< /p> 0

A toothbrush is considered the main means of personal hygiene, because health depends on it only the teeth, but also the entire oral cavity. However, many people forget to change the brush on time.

Experts claim that the brush becomes unusable in three months. However, the issue is not in its condition, but because the brush accumulates too many bacteria during this period.

Dentists explain this by the fact that toothbrushes are usually stored in the bathroom, where humidity is usually high. In such conditions, the rate of spread of microorganisms increases rapidly.

It is also worth heeding the advice that the toothbrush must be changed after every cold, since viral bacteria do not die completely, but remain on the bristles.

Also, experts note that in a few months the bristles wear out to such an extent that they practically stop removing tartar and other formations.
