Toothbrush, electric or manual ?

I heard you were meant to change them every three months.

 

I guess I'm doing it wrong... Maybe I will have to buy one more frequently. My current one sort of scratches a little.

 

Well.. it's a guideline. Might have been said by a toothbrush manufacturer : )

 

Why... it still has bristles.

 

i always get a toothbrush, mini toothpaste, and mini floss. i know that's what my current dentist gives me, but i think it's what my past dentists have done too so it's probably the standard around here.

 

That one is definitely past it

 

PROOF,if e'er it were needed,that you put EFFORT into brushing your tooth,Tyr! PROUD of you,mate!

 

Used my electric tonight. Gotta say, my mouth feels super good for it.

 

But....if you go to the dentist every 6 months and you should switch out your toothbrush at least every 6 months, how do you end up with extra?
Inquiring minds want to know

 

loved the teeth polishing effect of the rotating brush. probably pick my teeth with a toothbrush 5 times a day. electric is mostly morning tho...

speaking of,, also make for good nail polish removal .. battery, will not catch fire- u can use acetone free, but that shit sucks..

ya'll act like yinz hadnt had a sex toy in your mouths before.. //. dang uz need to live a little..

 

I had an electric for a while, my mouth really never felt so clean. But it stopped working and I went back to the ol' trusty manual

 

I prefer the harsh normal toothbrush. These folks and their soft brushes.. They dont do anything. I need a brush like steel wire or sandpaper.
Give me a soft brush and it's ruined a week because I have to work it harder to feel cleaner. Uncool.

Now many folks will tell ya, firm brush hurts your gums. I don't believe that, cause I been using them for years and the dentist hasn't said anything to me.

 

I use a kid's toothbrush. My dentist once told me I had "petite teeth" lol. They are rather small and adult sized toothbrushes scrape over the gums too much. Plus kids toothbrushes have cooler designs

 

Ive half dozen brushes, sizes, value, hard, soft. some make it to be uses to clean ac coils.
and two electrics. one for nail(pink in a plastic bag) the other blue.

 

i have an electric toothbrush. i just hoard the manuals my dentist gives me for when i travel.
