When Should You Change Your Toothbrush?



The average American only changes their brushes 2 times per year. The American Dental Association recommends that you change your toothbrush at least four times a year, which is approximately every 3 months and every time you are sick. If the bristles of your toothbrush start flaring before three to four months, then you are using too much pressure to brush your teeth. People with gum problems, other oral diseases, or weakened immune systems should change their toothbrush more often.

At the office of Dr. Edwin S. Porter, we give you a goody bag containing a new toothbrush, floss, toothpaste and usually some mouthwash. We want to help you keep your smile nice and clean! If you ever need an extra toothbrush, just ask! We’ll be happy to help you out.

Call us anytime at our convenient Arboretum office at 704*544*5330!
