The most important thing to focus on and be aware of when looking for the best toothbrush are the bristles. What type of bristles do you want? You always want to use soft bristles.
When it comes to tooth brushing harder is not better and that goes for both the bristles and pressure you’re using with your hand while you brush. If you’ve been using a medium or hard or firm toothbrush, please throw them away. But don’t totally waste them, you can still use them to clean your sinks and items around your house.
The best toothbrush to use in your mouth is a soft bristled toothbrush and the best way to use it is with gentle pressure.
People who brush too hard or use a hard toothbrush can actually give themselves scum recession which is when your gums pull away from your tooth exposing the root which leads to tooth sensitivity and also in some cases hard tooth brushing can cause enamel abrasion. This is when notches are actually worn into the sides of your teeth. So to prevent all of this from happening you need to switch to a soft or an extra soft toothbrush right way and only apply gentle pressure just enough to make your tissue blanch.
If you’re not sure if you’re using the correct pressure ask your dental provider at your next dental cleaning. They will be able to examine.
