How Important Is Your Toothbrush?

Number one thing is to actually have any type of toothbrush and use it!! Manual or electric…Get those bristles touching teeth at least twice a day. It’s amazing how soft plaque can be wisked away with just a quick swipe of your toothbrush!
At the office of Dr. Edwin Porter, we recommend the Sonicare electric toothbrush just because of how advanced it is in cleaning your teeth. Plus it is so much easier! It brushed for 2 minutes and pulses at the end of each 30 second interval to let you know to move on to the other corner of your mouth. How easy is that?! The electric action pulses in between teeth and can help you get a deeper clean than with a manual toothbrush.
There is even a Sonicare for Kids that makes brushing fun and instills that good habit! It’s a smaller size and comes in fun colors.
At Dr. Porter’s office, we sale both adult and children versions and can give you a rebate to get some money back on your purchase. Ask anyone here how they like their Sonicare! We all use one and couldn’t live without it!
