Replace your toothbrush to fight bacteria this cold and flu season!

Fall is upon us, and with it comes the dreaded cold and flu season. After recovering from your cold, Dr. Wayne Sankey will tell you one of the most important steps you can take to avoid becoming reinfected is replacing your toothbrush!

Germs can linger on the bristles, and you risk prolonging your sickness by continuing to use the same toothbrush. Be smart - keep a spare, just in case! To protect your toothbrush from bacteria all year long, consider the following tips:

• Wash your hands before and after brushing
• Allow the brush to air dry after each use, harmful bacteria dies after being exposed to oxygen
• Store the toothbrush in an upright position to allow water to drain and dry faster
• Replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months. Worn bristles are less effective in properly cleaning your teeth, and can actually be damaging to teeth if used too long!


Hope these tips help! Feel free to call us at Flower Mound Orthodontics if you have any questions or ask us on Facebook.
