Why should you clean your toothbrush?

Posted Aug 28 2009 7:44pm

Listerine If you have gingivitis or periodontal disease, your toothbrush can transfer oral bacteria back into your mouth after every use. To avoid bacterial transfer, do this:

1. Dip your toothbrush into a small amount of undiluted Listerine after every use.
2. Buy a new toothbrush every 2-3 months.
3. Do not share your toothbrush.

Cleaning your toothbrush and replacing it on a regular basis will help keep your mouth free of bacteria.

It’s all connected.
