Toothbrushes today come in about as many sizes and shapes as one can imagine. There are angled heads, raised bristles, oscillating tufts and handles that change colours with use. While makers of toothbrushes make a lot of claims, there isn’t any evidence that any one type of toothbrush design is better at removing plaque than another.
The most important thing to remember when shopping for a toothbrush is that you actually use it. If you achieve unsatisfactory results from your toothbrush, it’s more likely than not that you either aren’t brushing long enough, or using the correct technique.
