What is the Best Toothbrush

This is one of the top questions I get asked on a daily basis!

While It would be easy to just tell you my favorite and why I love it. I would be doing you a disservice.

Why?

When it comes to health care there is not a one size fits all! Ever! This includes your mouth. I am a huge promoter of prevention and what action you can take to have a healthy mouth and body so you can live a long happy life.

Today we are going to talk about how to pick out a toothbrush for yourself, infant, toddler or another member of your family. The toothbrush that you use, depends on the age and size of your child. Smart parents like to start caring for their infants gums before the teeth come in and that can be very helpful to get them used to you putting your hands in their mouth.

You begin by using a wet washcloth, gauze or a small silicone finger brush. There are lots of options being marketed towards parents to brush their infants' gums. I love the baby banana brush and the silicone finger brushes or you can just use a wet washcloth,

Once your baby gets teeth in their mouth, you will want to start brushing them as soon as they come in. What you want to find is a toothbrush that has a soft bristle head and one that's small enough to fit in your child's mouth.

There are so many toothbrushes that are marketed for children, I love tepe products for manual toothbrushes and their products are perfect as the kids get older, there are different sizes and shapes to get in all of the nooks and crannies. I used more than one brush and a water flosser on my daughter. You will need to see what works best for you. It has everything to do with your mindset, beliefs and personal experiences what will or will not work for you. If you are not a fan of electric toothbrushes your brain will justify your thoughts. So being open will go a long way to finding the products that are the right fit for your family.
In general, soft toothbrushes are the way to go to prevent gum recession and enamel abrasion, remember the harder you scrub is bad for your gums

So in all , remember to always use a soft toothbrush and if you aren't sure which soft toothbrush is best for your personal lifestyle, the best person to ask is your dental professional. They can recommend the best products for your individual mouth.. What they recommend will be based on their personal beliefs,experience and expertise. Remember dentistry is not a one size fits all! You may need to try different products until you find the right fit for you and your family like I did.

I hope this eliminates some of the confusion when you walk down the toothpaste and toothbrush aisle. If you have any questions about selecting the proper toothbrush for your child, feel free to contact us. www.dentalhygiene411.com
