The history of oral care

How important dental care is was known in many cultures even before the invention of the toothbrush. At the beginning, natural materials were used to brush teeth and gums. The first archaeological finds date back to 3,000 BC. The humans used small pieces of a branch, which were shredded at one end. Even today, some of the primitive people use casks. Around the year 1500, toothbrushes similar to a brush were invented in the Chinese Empire. A popular material for the stem was bamboo. The bristles came from domestic pigs. Modern designs of toothbrushes are made of plastics and nylon that have been improved over the decades. In the past, toothbrushes were luxury goods because only wealthy people could afford the brushes. The common people used classic chewing sticks, but they did not have the same effect. Nowadays, proper dental care has become the standard for all people in Europe and most parts of the world. Various studies have shown that electric toothbrushes have a higher level of cleaning power than manual toothbrushes. The first models imitated the movements of the hand, today’s variants are equipped with rotating brushes. The brush heads can be removed, so that the regular change is possible. In addition, oral care centers can be used by several people in parallel. Colored rings make it possible to distinguish the attachments.
