Dentists have shared a secret on how to choose the perfect travel toothbrush. If you are thinking about buying, then before purchasing, you should pay attention to some points.

-
Brush head. For high-quality hygiene and convenience, dentists advise stopping at the option of 2-3 centimeters. If the head is larger, then the brush will be too big, and if it is smaller, then the process of brushing your teeth will take a lot of time, which may not always be appropriate on the road.
-
Dimensions. Pay attention to how heavy the model is, how much space it will take up in your bag or backpack. And you also need to make sure that the case tightly covers the bristles and is fixed as a handle.
