• Tongue cleaner: Cleans the tongue to remove odour-causing bacteria.

• Manual brush: Needs no charging or batteries.

Is a medium toothbrush right for me?

The NHS advises that medium or soft bristles are best for most people. If you are unsure which firmness suits you, ask a dental healthcare professional.

Does this toothbrush have a tongue cleaner?

Yes. The tongue cleaner is designed to remove odour-causing bacteria from the tongue.

Is a manual toothbrush as good as an electric one?

The NHS says it does not matter whether you use a manual or electric toothbrush. Both are equally good as long as you clean all surfaces of all your teeth and use fluoride toothpaste.

Does the toothbrush type matter more than how often I brush?

The NHS says thoroughly cleaning your teeth at least twice a day matters more than the type of brush you use.

Brush your teeth with fluoride toothpaste twice a day for about 2 minutes each time, cleaning the inside, outside and chewing surfaces of all your teeth. Brush last thing before bed and on one other occasion. Use the tongue cleaner on the back of the head to clean your tongue. After brushing, spit out excess toothpaste and do not rinse your mouth straight away.

Children need to be helped or supervised when brushing their teeth until they are at least 7 years old.
