Review on Revolutionary RADIUS Toothbrush: Accepted Design for Enhanced Oral Health by Nicholas Kanat

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Indispensable for receding gums!

I have had problems with my teeth for most of my life. I wore braces from 3rd grade through high school, then struggled with a large number of cavities for several years and have suffered from receding gums for a number of years. My dentist has warned me several times not to change my brushing habits or I'll have to have gum surgery (the surgery costs over $10,000). They gave me a few different styles of Colgate soft bristle toothbrushes to try, as well as a toothpaste for sensitive gums, but they didn't work. If there are any, they have exacerbated the problem. My gums got so bad that I couldn't even eat ice cream or drink anything cold on a hot summer day. In winter I couldn't even drink my hot tea and hot chocolate. As you can imagine, I was pretty damn unhappy for a while. I've had gum sensitivity for a while and recently it's back but worse. That's when I realized I had to change something. I've only been using it for two days and I can feel the difference. Teeth feel much cleaner and have less plaque compared to regular Colgate toothbrushes. I brush my teeth three times a day, once in the morning with a branded soft toothbrush, and then use Radius after breakfast and after dinner. I'll say right now, I'm not going to lie, the brush head is quite large. I have to dodge and try to push the brush back into my mouth as far as possible to get my teeth in there. But one must give credit to the design of the brush. Regular brush heads are damn small, and for those with receding gums, it's SO SO SO SO easy to apply too much pressure and damage gums over time. Because the Radius brush head is larger than usual, any pressure you apply is distributed evenly. My gums have never hurt when brushing my teeth. No bleeding, no pain, no discomfort and no sensitivity. Brush bristles are the true definition of softness (if you want to test the softness of your brush bristles, run them across the back of your hand. A brush is better!) Radius was really an eye opener and showed me what a really soft brush is . I like that most of the product is biodegradable and not just hard plastic. Another plus is that this product is proudly made in the USA! So you know you're getting a quality product at a great price.

Pros
