Common mistakes in brushing teeth: Replacing the toothbrush too rarely
Sometimes you get the feeling that the time flies. In any case, you should change your toothbrush more often than once a year. Worn, off-standing bristles have a strong effect on the cleaning performance of the toothbrush and can also damage the sensitive gums more easily.
This is how you do it right: The manual toothbrush or the brush head of the electric toothbrush should be replaced every 2 to 3 months. In addition, especially after a cold, an exchange should take place so that you do not come into contact with the same viruses again.
