Actually it does matter what kind of toothbrush you use. You want to use a soft to medium type of brush. And when you brush, use small strokes, don't scrub your teeth, scrubbing accomplishes nothing. You'll actually do more harm than good but scrubbing your teeth, you'll have what we call tooth brush abrasion if you continue to do that. And as for toothpaste, you can go with whatever you want just as long as it says with fluoride. It can be Dr. Joe's Toothpaste, just as long as it say with fluoride you will be fine. Some have hydrogen perioxide and others have baking soda, whatever you want to use is up to you. And when you use toothpaste only use a small pea-size on your brush, don't fill the brush up completely with toothpaste. Toothpaste is actually abrasive, sort of like rubbing sandpaper over your teeth so only use alittle amount. More toothpaste on your brush doesn't accomplish anything more than a small pea-size amount. As for flossing, use something that fits between your teeth. Obviously a waxed floss will work but try a few others and see how they work. It's really how you floss that matters. If you have wide spaces between your teeth floss won't work as well, you'll need what's called an interproximal brush. I'm a dental student so I know these things and I'm glad to help you out.
So many types of toothbrushes and floss!!
