Alert Therapeutic
Toothbrush
Trauma to the inside of the mouth can trigger
an outbreak of canker sores. This trauma
includes biting your cheek or tongue, scraping
the inside of your mouth with hard or sharp
foods (like hard pretzels), and overzealous
tooth brushing (brushing too hard). Because of
this canker sore sufferers are encouraged
to:
- Cut down on eating foods
like potato chips, hard pretzels, cut
apples, and hard candies which might nick,
abrade, or otherwise traumatize the oral
tissue.
- Stop biting the insides of their mouth
or the sides of their lips. Many people do
this as a nervous habit. Others tend to
bite the insides of their mouth while
sleeping.
- Stop brushing so hard. This causes your
toothbrush to injure your teeth, gums and
oral tissue.
The Alert toothbrush helps you to stop
overzealous brushing (brushing too hard). In
this way the Alert toothbrush helps prevent
trauma to your oral tissue and the canker sores
which may form as a result.
