• A toothbrush plays a vital role in oral hygiene.
  Most of us are so focussed on toothpaste, such
  that we neglect toothbrush completely. The
  Toronto Dental Sedation Specialist like

  opinion. Here are a few tips to choose the right
  toothbrush

• Size of the toothbrush
• The handle of the toothbrush should be long
  enough so that you can hold it comfortably. The
  toothbrush head should be half-inch wide and
  one-inch tall which will make it more effective.
  A toothbrush should be such that you must be able
  to cover all the surfaces.

• Bristle variety
•   We normally tend to neglect the bristle part
  and purchase a random toothbrush. The bristles of
  the toothbrush should be soft enough to clean
  your teeth as well as safeguard them. The hard
  bristles will damage the teeth on a long run. The
  gums, tooth surface and enamel will be affected
  if the bristles are too hard. If you have
  purchased an electric toothbrush, ensure that you
  change the head once in six months. If it is
  manual toothbrush, opt for nylon bristles. You
  can contact Toronto Sedation Dental Clinics to
  know more about bristles.

• Recommendation by dentists
• There are times when we do not have much
  knowledge about toothpaste, toothbrush and tooth
  care. One can get information on internet or
  check with friends and family. But, it is always
  advisable to check with experts. The toothbrush
  undergoes a lot of quality tests before getting
  launched in the market. There are many brands
  with false promises. The advertisement urges us
  to make a purchase. Thus, it is better to check
  with a dentist and follow his recommendation.

• Disposable or electric toothbrush
•  
• There is always a dilemma to opt for a manual
  toothbrush or an electric toothbrush. Most of us
  the household practices the culture of manual
  toothbrush. The handle is strong enough to last
  for many days. The bristles will also continue
  for 2-3 months and will start withering off
  gradually. Thus, opt a toothbrush with soft
  bristles. A manual toothbrush needs to be
  disposed within 2-3 months. Do not be too harsh
  while using manual toothbrush. A electric
  toothbrush also undergoes quality check before
  hitting the market. It should ensure that it will
  not hamper the teeth tissue and muscles. The head
  must be replaced once in 6 months or 9 months
  depending upon the condition.

• Cost of the toothbrush
• Cost is always a major factor when it comes to
  purchase. There are manual toothbrushes which
  starts form Rs. 10 and goes upto Rs. 200/-.
  Electric toothbrushes are slightly expensive. The
  price ranges from Rs. 500/- and goes up to Rs.
  2000/ -. One must select a good brand when it
  comes to electric toothbrush. Never compromise on
  quality and safety of the product that has a
  direct impact on the health.
