Transcription textuelle de la BD Choosing a toothbrush

I choose a toothbrush that suits me best.

There are different sorts :

  • Manual toothbrush
  • Electric toothbrush
  • 3 head toothbrush
  • Big handle toothbrush

The manual toothbrush: I brush my teeth on all sides.
The electric toothbrush: I slide the toothbrush over my teeth.
The brush makes a noise and vibrates on my teeth.
But it doesn’t hurt.
The three head toothbrush: It brushes all sides of my teeth at the same time.
The big-handle toothbrush: The handle is bigger to help me hold the toothbrush.

I need to change my toothbrush every three months.

I can choose a toothpaste I like. It comes in different flavours.

My dentist may tell me to use one that contains fluoride.
