Most people often forget to change their toothbrush on a regular basis even though it is

important to do it regularly. By regularly changing your toothbrush you can decrease plaque,
reduce gingivitis, whiten teeth, and neutralize bacteria better than with a manual toothbrush.

In order for electric toothbrushes to remain effective, the brush needs to be changed at least
every three months.

Reduce Unhealthy Pressure

After regular brushing for 3 months, your toothbrush head begins to lose its form and
becomes more flexible. This means that the brush will not feel the same on your teeth and as
a result a user tends to push the electric toothbrush harder against their teeth. This is bad
because applying too much pressure can cause damage to the gums and weaken the enamel
on your teeth.
