Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

As a practicing hygienist I was naturally drawn to the Triple Bristle toothbrush because it cleans the gumline automatically. It’s not that other brushes can’t do a good job too - I just found that people who use this three sided brush consistently come to their recall appointment with huge improvements in their gum health. I originally tried the main unit with rechargeable batteries but this one is more affordable for people who are on a tight budget and it does a great job as well. The only downside is that since batteries are not rechargeable you will have to replace batteries when you feel the vibration strength going down. It’s definitely a completely different way to brush. So to all of those people trying it for the first time I recommend that you approach it with an open mind: - Be prepared for some tickling and sensitivity for the first several days. You may also feel the occasional “zing” if the plastic touches your tooth. This goes away as you learn to use it. - Because it cleans more thoroughly and goes right into the gum line, it’s not uncommon to experience some bleeding and sensitivity. This is temporary and usually goes away after several days. Bleeding is a sign of inflammation so as you continue to use the brush you will note that the bleeding stops and your gum health will improve dramatically. - Unlike the original rechargeable unit, this unit comes with batteries that have to be inserted into the handle. This part can be a bit tricky. It closes very tightly so that water doesn’t enter the handle and it can be tough to open. When I called customer service they recommended using a coin (like a quarter) to open and close the bottom. I’ve had quite a few patients ask me about this so I am attaching a quick video about how to assemble this brush start to finish. - You don’t need to move the handle around very much. Just press it down on top of your teeth until it reaches the gums and allow the sonic vibration to do its job. A gentle up and down motion to brush the gums is as much as you should do. This toothbrush will help you brush better and faster. It covers all three sides of your teeth and brushes the gumline perfectly. Since the gum line is often where gum disease starts it can make a really big difference in your oral health. I highly recommend trying this brush if you struggle with dental disease - at this price point it’s really well worth it. Inna C. RDH
