How often do I need to buy a new toothbrush?

...

spur of the moment	Every 12-16 weeks. Um... HOW LONG HAVE YOU GONE USIN THE SAME TOOTHBRUSH??? I feel sorry for your gf man...

Mandeep	every 2-3 months

Mountain Dreamer	My dentist told me every 6 months if it is frayed on the edges. You should visit the dentist twice a year and get a new toothbrush twice a year to remind yourself. Also ask your dentist which brush is best for you. Some folks need a soft or hard brush. Some need a short headed one or a long headed one...

Gorgeous	every two months

ari	every 3 months
