Change the brush head every 3 months
Electric toothbrushes use the rapid rotation or vibration of the motor core to produce high-frequency vibrations in the brush head, which instantly decomposes the toothpaste into fine foam and cleans the teeth deeply. The brush head must be installed for the first time, and then the brush head should be soaked in warm water. , Squeeze toothpaste on it and brush your teeth. When in use, insert the brush head from the thinnest incisor and place the teeth in the middle of the bristles on the three sides. Pull it back and forth with moderate force. After the toothpaste is foamed, turn on the electric switch. After the brush head vibrates, apply moderate force, starting from the front teeth and moving backward. Move the toothbrush back and forth to clean all the teeth. Then turn off the power and take out the toothbrush, and clean the toothbrush bristles.
Like ordinary toothbrushes, the heads of electric toothbrushes should be replaced after 3 months of use. Although there is no big difference with the naked eye, after 3 months of use, the bristles have been deformed and aged very seriously, the cleaning effect on the teeth will be reduced a lot, and the gums will also be damaged.
Dry fully to prevent aging
Electric brush heads for children and adults are different, so you should choose a brush head that suits you according to your personal habits, degree of opening, oral size and other factors. Some people like the bristles on the toothbrush to be softer or harder. You can choose the right brush head according to your personal preference.
Usually, the electric toothbrush should be placed in a dry and cool place. Although it has a waterproof function, if it is placed in a dark and humid environment for a long time, the rubber on the surface of the electric toothbrush will accelerate the aging, and the noise will also become a bit louder.
Therefore, in order to prevent moisture, the brush head should be pulled out in time after use. Because after the brush head is inserted into the brush handle, there will still be a very small gap. This place is most prone to residual liquid, and it will naturally become moldy after a long time.
In addition, you can use different brush heads alternately for brushing your teeth in the morning and evening, so that you can give the toothbrush plenty of time to dry. This can prevent excessive bacteria from attaching to the brush head from the root cause and reduce gum inflammation.
