Are you still using that toothbrush from six months ago? We recommend changing your toothbrush every three months. Swap it out sooner if the bristles look frayed or if you’ve been sick. Worn-out bristles are less effective at cleaning and can cause gum irritation. Keep your brushing routine fresh and schedule your semiannual checkup with us at (401) 231-7390.
