The last in the series of toothbrushing errors! Not changing your brush regularly: Toothbrush filaments splay, fray and collect bacteria and paste residue. Change your brush every 3 months, if the bristles have splayed, if the brush falls on the floor, and after you recover from an illness. Brushing immediately after meals: Eating creates an acidic environment in the mouth. Brushing immediately after will damage the softened enamel causing erosion and sensitivity of the teeth. Wait for 30-45 minutes after eating before you brush your teeth. Not storing your brush correctly: The brush should be stored in an upright position and allowed to air dry, away from contaminating aerosols. It is better to keep all separate them in a stand than in a tumbler, where all the brushes can come in contact All this and more you can learn by calling Dr Gallani’s Dental Care on 02025881750 0r 08042754192 or www.gallanidentalcare.com for an appointment today !!
