Believe it or not, you\u2019re not the only one! Many patients grab the cheapest toothbrush in the aisle and scurry away, but this isn\u2019t the best way to choose your critical dental tools.\n\nIn this week\u2019s blog post, your dentist in Medford is going to give you some helpful tips for picking your best toothbrush. This can help you improve your brushing and optimize your oral health!\n\n\n

4 Tips to Find Your Perfect Toothbrush<\/h2>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Pay attention to the bristles!<\/h3>\nLittle do many people know, if your toothbrush is hard-bristled, then you risk damaging your gum tissue and the enamel on your teeth. Dentists collectively recommend that you use a soft-bristled toothbrush because they are more flexible to reach tough areas of your smile. Not to mention, they feel like a massage to your soft tissues rather than an abrasive scrub.\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Always choose a toothbrush you feel comfortable with.<\/h3>\nThe right toothbrush can have different features for every person. After all, everyone is different! It\u2019s important to choose a toothbrush that fits comfortably in your hand while you\u2019re brushing your teeth. Pay attention to the grips on the handle, the shape of the head of the toothbrush, and the shape of the handle itself. These all play a part in helping you enjoy\u2014or dislike\u2014your oral hygiene routine.\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Consider investing in an electric toothbrush.<\/h3>\nAlthough manual toothbrushes do get the job done, electric toothbrushes offer many benefits. If you\u2019re not a \u201cgood\u201d brusher, meaning that you don\u2019t brush for the full two minutes that your dentist always tells you that you should, electric toothbrushes can help keep your teeth in good shape. Whether you\u2019re moving the toothbrush or not, the bristles will keep rotating, constantly cleaning your smile.\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You are in control of your toothbrush, not the other way around.<\/h3>\nYou can get the fanciest toothbrush on the market, but it\u2019s only as good as you make it. If you hardly pick up your toothbrush to use it, there\u2019s no way that you can actually see better results. Plus, you should always strive to brush your teeth for two minutes at least and never forget to scrub your tongue, too!\n\nIf you\u2019ve been taking diligent care of your smile in between appointments, don\u2019t forget to visit your family dentist in Medford for preventive care visits<\/a>, too. Brushing isn\u2019t the end all be all of your oral hygiene\u2014but it does help!\n\n
