How often do you replace toothbrush?

[sophias mommy]

I always thoroughly rinse the toothbrushes after using them because they get so goopy (for lack of a better word) from the toothpaste. How often should they be completely replaced?

Thanks

That's what I was thinking too.

For me just kinda depends how quickly the brush "wears out" so to say. Usually, I can use the brush through a tube of toothpaste and once I buy a new tube, I go ahead and buy a new brush as well. With the last toothbrush I just threw away, the bristles started getting really hard and stiff, even after wetting it so I knew it was time. It was just about the end of the toothpaste anyways so it happened to work out.

The minute it begins to stiffen from age or the bristles start to change appearance such as getting crinkly or sticking out a bit. I find that the brushes start to harden pretty quickly so I probably replace Tibbe's every 2 - 3 months to be sure his gums aren't hurt.
