Firstly, they ensure effective cleaning of the teeth. Their special design and bristles allow them to easily reach between teeth and along the gums, allowing them to thoroughly remove plaque. Plaque is a sticky layer of bacteria that builds up on the teeth and can lead to tooth decay and gum disease. Regular use of brush heads can significantly reduce plaque and improve the health of your teeth. In addition, brush heads contribute to general oral health by helping to prevent gum disease and help you get fresh breath. Finally, brush heads also offer convenience and user-friendliness. They are designed to be comfortable to hold and use, making the brushing process simple and enjoyable. This makes brush heads a convenient and effective choice for anyone who takes their oral health very seriously.

When using brush heads, it is important to use the correct technique for effective cleaning. Here are some tips to achieve optimal oral care with brush heads: Don't put too much pressure Do not apply too much pressure while brushing as this can damage the gums. Let the bristles do their work by gently moving over the teeth and gums. Brush with the right angle Hold the brush head at a 45 degree angle to the tooth surface. This makes it easier to reach the spaces between the teeth and the gum line. Brush thoroughly Divide your mouth into different areas (e.g. upper and lower jaw, left and right sides) and spend about 30 seconds brushing each area. Make sure you brush all tooth surfaces and gums thoroughly. Use a timer To ensure that you brush for long enough, you can use a timer. Most electric toothbrushes these days have a built-in timer or you can use a timer on your smartphone. The Smyle electric toothbrush also has a timer; this is how you brush for the recommended two minutes. Additional tips Regularly replacing brush heads is super important to maintain optimal cleaning. Dentists and other specialists recommend replacing your toothbrush or brush head every 2 months. Here are a few more points to consider: Keep an eye on the bristles Keep an eye on the bristles. If the bristles become worn or separated over time, it is time to replace the brush head. Worn bristles are a lot less effective at removing plaque and cleaning your teeth. Personal hygiene Personal hygiene is very important for good oral care. It is not only important to brush your teeth regularly, but also to follow proper hygiene practices, especially when it comes to using brush heads. If you have been ill, it is wise to replace your brush head immediately. By doing this, you minimize the risk of re-infecting yourself with germs and help prevent further spread of pathogens.

It is recommended to replace your brush head every 3 to 4 months, or sooner if the bristles are worn or sagging. This ensures that the brush remains effective and maintains optimal cleaning results.

It is not recommended to share brush heads, regardless of who. Brush heads are designed for individual use and sharing them can, for example, transmit bacteria. It is best to let everyone have their own brush head for optimal oral health.

By using brush heads you can ensure effective cleaning of your teeth and the removal of plaque. It is clear that brush heads play an important role in maintaining good oral health. By applying the correct technique and regularly replacing brush heads, you can ensure optimal oral care. Remember that a healthy mouth is essential for a healthy body. So don't hesitate to add brush heads to your daily oral care routine and enjoy the benefits they bring for a radiant Smyle.

The bamboo parts of the brush heads are specially designed in a combination of bamboo and corn starch and are 100% biodegradable. Our bristles – bristles – are made from fibers from the castor tree and nylon and they are free of BPA and fossil oil. Unfortunately, due to the nylon, the bristles are not 100% compostable. However, at the moment this is the best available option on the market. The only alternative is to use pig bristles, but we love animals, so we don't think that is a good alternative. There is also a very small piece of plastic inside the brush head to properly absorb and guide the vibrations of the brush. No alternative has yet been found for this. Every type of bamboo brush head has this. Our bamboo brush heads currently contain 88% less plastic than regular brush heads. Of course, we will always continue to look for even better alternatives.
