Does your cold seem to keep coming back? Your tooth brush could be the problem.

Have you been sick this Flu season with a bug that seems to keep coming back? You should replace your toothbrush every three months and always always get a new one after you have an episode of flu, cold or other viral infections. These Bacteria can implant themselves on the toothbrush bristles leading to re-infection.You should also not keep your toothbrush near a toilet. The airborne particles from a flush can travel up to 6 feet. Give your toothbrush the extra care it deserves.          Cosmetic Dental Associates | www.cosmeticdentistshouston.com
