Brush head size
Experts say that the brush head should be slightly smaller to ensure that it can rotate flexibly in the mouth. Children with small mouth need smaller brush head. Generally speaking, the size of the brush head should be determined according to the situation of each person. It needs to take into account the size of the mouth, the degree of mouth opening and personal habits. There is no unified standard.
Soft and hard bristles
Brush hair to choose moderate soft and hard, or slightly soft. But pay attention, too soft hair easy to brush not clean. At present, the most common bristles are made of nylon. Specifically, it can be divided into two kinds - ordinary silk and DuPont silk. DuPont has good elasticity and is not easy to fall down.
Sanding treatment
If the bristles are not smoothed after cutting, they are easy to be hurt because they are too sharp. The toothbrush with rounded bristle tip can prevent this kind of injury and has stronger protective effect on gingiva.
At the same time, dentists remind you that it's best to change the toothbrush every three months. It is harmful to oral health if it is used for a long time. People who use DuPont bristles should not change their toothbrush because the bristles do not fall down.
