How to Take Care of Your Electric Toothbrush
Here’s a comprehensive guide by the best medical professionals to keeping your Denticare Smart Sonic Toothbrush hygienic for an unmatched dental cleaning experience.
Multiple studies have revealed that smart sonic toothbrushes provide an optimal dental cleaning experience and are much more efficient in reducing gingivitis by approximately 9% and dental plague by over 23% than manual toothbrushes.
Although most people understand the importance of oral hygiene and ensure that they clean their gums, tongue, and teeth correctly after every meal, or at least twice a day, it’s ironic that they often neglect to clean the very tool that cleans their pearly whites.
Our mouth is like a portal to our bodies, and germs or bacteria can easily make their way to our insides, causing harm to our immune systems. Best medical professionals emphasize maintaining the toothbrush’s hygiene to ensure you remain healthy.
While it sounds incredibly icky to put a toothbrush covered in toothpaste residue and gross grit in your mouth, and an added bonus of keeping the toothbrush clean is that the bristles don’t get hardened, and the head lasts way longer while being more effective in removing tartar and plaque. Here are a few tips for cleaning your smart sonic toothbrushes properly so that it can function optimally to keep your smile healthy and bright.
#1 Overbrushing
Applying more pressure or overbrushing might seem like you’re cleaning the teeth thoroughly, but it’s unnecessary and adversely impacts the bristles.
They bend, become worn down, or frayed sooner than the usual replacement time, i.e., every three months, making the brush lose its effectiveness.
#2 Storage
Ensure that the toothbrush is thoroughly rinsed with water until saliva, bacteria, and toothpaste is gone from between the bristles.
While most households store toothbrushes in one holder, experts recommend placing them upright on a stable surface, spaced far apart to air-dry with ideal ventilation.
Also, avoid storing used brushes inside cabinets as closed spaces are perpetually moist and ideal for bacterial and fungal growth.
#3 Battery Charging
When you buy any health technology products, such as a smart sonic toothbrush, make sure to charge it fully before using it for the first time.
After that, charge the device only when the power completely drains out to keep the battery running strong. There’s no need to keep the electric toothbrush plugged in all the time; it’s bad for battery life and a waste of power.
#4 Sanitization
In addition to a daily rinse, the head needs to be changed at least every three months and should be cleaner thoroughly at least once a month. Use a damp but clean cloth to wipe the head and soak it in a mixture of FDA-approved sanitizer with water.
The sanitizer usually comes in a tablet form that dissolves in the water. It kills more than 98% of bacteria. Still, if you don’t have sanitizer available, you can use an antiseptic mouthwash or give your toothbrush a natural, chemical-free baking soda and vinegar soak.
Although cutting-edge electric toothbrushes, such as Denticare Smart Sonic Toothbrush, are waterproof, you should still use a cotton swab dipped in sanitizing solution to clean the joints and other hard-to-reach parts.
If you’re looking to incorporate smart technology into your wellness regime, Denticare Smart Sonic Toothbrush is loaded with numerous features such as 40,000 strokes per minute, ‘find brush area detecting technology,’ six-axis sensors, and unique movability, which helps address issues such as sensitivity, stubborn stains, and more to ensure top-notch teeth cleaning experience and optimal oral health.
