Does this look a bit too familiar? Too often people believe that this is what should signal the replacement of your toothbrush or toothbrush head. Unfortunately, if you are seeing this, you are way overdue! The fact is, once the bristles are so worn and frayed, they are too weak to adequately remove the plaque accumulation on your teeth. Toothbrushes should be replaced every three months to ensure you are getting the most benefit you can from your twice daily brushing habit
