Choosing Dental Products

At Kidz Connextion Dental & Braces we encourage our patients to change toothbrushes every 3 months or when the bristles are worn down. If your bristles are worn down and hardened, your teeth are not being cleaned effectively even with toothpaste.

When it comes to the best toothbrush for your teeth, it all depends on how well you brush and how effectively. If you brush for a full two minutes using toothpaste, that is the most important thing. For patients whose teeth need to be cleaned more thoroughly, we encourage them to use an electric toothbrush to reach the plaque that is difficult with a normal toothbrush.

While electric toothbrushes can be expensive, studies have shown people to receive better results from cleaning with an electric toothbrush as opposed to a traditional toothbrush. During your next visit with us, we can recommend the best toothbrush for your teeth.

Regardless of the toothbrush you use, remember to brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste for the cleanest tooth possible.

To schedule an appointment, please visit one of the Kidz Connextion Dental & Braces offices located around the Phoenix area, or visit our website or call our offices.

Choosing a Toothbrush

There are a lot of options to choose when deciding what toothbrush you want to use. At Kidz Connextion Dental and Braces, We advise our patients to buy a new toothbrush every 3-4 months and after the bristles are worn down. If the bristles on your toothbrush begin to get splayed and distorted, it means you are no longer effectively brushing your teeth.

We encourage our patients who have trouble brushing for a full two minutes to get an electric toothbrush. Electric bristles rotate to help you remove plaque from your teeth and gums more effectively. Patients who have healthy teeth and follow good dental cleaning habits, a traditional toothbrush is effective in cleaning your teeth. The most important thing is that your teeth and gums are clean from plaque and debris.

We advise our patients who haven’t had a cleaning in the last 6 months make an appointment with us to ensure your teeth are healthy. Choosing a toothbrush can be difficult, if you have any questions on what toothbrush works best for your teeth please contact us.
