What type of toothbrush cleans the most out of braces?

Ahh, I remember when I had braces and brushing was a pain, however with the right equipment you can make if fairly quick and easy. I found that a toothbrush with soft bristles that weren't very coarse made it easier to really wiggle them under your brackets and around your wires; it was also a lot less painful at times. Although a toothbrush out of the store may be hard to find that has soft bristles try finding an old toothbrush that has been well used where the bristles have actually 'worn out' a little. I used my moms old one because she had just bought a new replacement. Just clean it really well before use, you can either go to the store and buy a toothbrush cleaning solution, or soak it in rubbing alcohol. Either way be sure to rinse it EXTREMELY well before use. Good luck!
