Dr. Greg Martin<\/a> of Smiles by Martin<\/a> in Grapevine, TX recommends that his patients replace their toothbrush every 3 months, when there is noticeable wear or when they have an illness, and what\u2019s cooler than recycling your old toothbrush by making a toothbrush bracelet?<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll need:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. An old toothbrush<\/p>\n

2. A pair of pliers<\/p>\n

3. Vise grips<\/p>\n

4. Tongs<\/p>\n

5. A pot big enough to accommodate your toothbrush<\/p>\n

6. A parent!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Take your old toothbrush and have your parent gently remove all of the bristles from the toothbrush with a pair of pliers. Support should be applied to the neck of the toothbrush to avoid breaking it.<\/p>\n

Step 2<\/strong>: Once all of the bristles are removed from the toothbrush, have your parent boil it for an hour. It has to boil for a whole hour so that when your parent starts the bending process the toothbrush doesn\u2019t snap.<\/p>\n

Step 3<\/strong>: Because the toothbrush is very hot, your parent needs to bend it using the tongs to hold the toothbrush in the middle, and with vise grips to shape the toothbrush.<\/p>\n

Step 4<\/strong>: To set the shape and cool the bracelet down, let it sit in a bowl of cold water.<\/p>\n

Be sure to keep your lumineers<\/a> up to par with your new toothbrush, and if you have any questions or concerns about your oral health contact Smiles by Martin at 817.481.1041<\/a>. Keep Smiling!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
