1.Toothbrush

Toothbrushes are a big part of our daily living as we are encouraged to brush our mouths at least two times daily – morning and night.

According to health care experts in charge of our teeth, it is recommended we change our toothbrushes at least every three months.

Some of us have toothbrushes that have seen better days. I mean toothbrushes that are older than some toddlers.

So, in this article, we have come to encourage you to please change that toothbrush for your gums’ sake. Gift yourself a new toothbrush this season.

2.Bathing sponge

On our number two list, we have the bathing sponge. The bathing sponge, just like our toothbrushes are involved in our daily living. Yet we fail to give them the care that is required of us.

Some people have never changed their bathing sponge since they became an adult. What do we now make of this attitude?
