There are many toothbrushes to choose from which makes it difficult to know what to look for. However, there are certain characteristics you should consider in choosing your toothbrush.

Visit your dentist once every six months to check if you have dental problems that can be diagnosed at an early stage.

Brush and floss your teeth to remove the plaque. If the plaque is not removed, the bacteria multiply causing gum inflammation. Choose a soft-bristled brush like Cleene CLIO toothbrush, as it gently cleans your teeth and gums.

Replace your toothbrush every three months or when the bristles appear overused. Old brushes are becoming less effective at removing plaque.

Dry out your brush between uses and store it in a closed place to prevent germs, fungus and bacteria from building up. Shake your brush vigorously under tap water, and store it in an upright position so it can air out.

Do not smoke. Tobacco usage increases the risk of having oral disease. Smokers tend to collect more tartar on their teeth that further develop severe oral disease and oral cancer.

Proper oral hygiene begins with choosing the right toothbrush to do the job

Eat foods rich in vitamins and minerals essential for the teeth, such as vitamins A and C, to prevent gum disease. However, overdosing of vitamin C causes bleeding gums.

Prevention of oral diseases means doing your part in maintaining a healthy mouth. By following this simple home oral care, we can all have healthy teeth, fresh breath and nice smiles.
