Be gentle. Use a soft-bristle brush and don’t press hard against your teeth. Hard bristles and firm pressure may seem like they are doing more work but can actually wear down your tooth enamel and cause bleeding or damage to your gums.
Let it breathe. Your toothbrush should be stored so the bristles can dry and not touching other brushes in order to reduce bacteria spread.
If it’s frayed, throw it away! Replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months.
