We hope 2011 gives you a whole lot to smile about. Get the New Year – and your teeth – off to a sparkling start by replacing your ARM & HAMMER® Spinbrush® toothbrush head. Here’s what dental and health professionals recommend to keep your mouth, teeth, and gums healthy:
The 3-month rule. Dentists highly recommend replacing your toothbrush every three months due to normal wear to help keep plaque at bay, your gums feeling great, and your teeth shining brightly.
Do you brush with muscle? If the bristles become too spread out as a result of forceful brushing, you may need to replace the brush even more often than three months.
No ill effects. You should also replace your toothbrush or replaceable head after you have had a cold or flu, because germs may be lurking among the bristles.
