Review on 🌿 Isshah Biodegradable Bamboo Handle Interdental Brushes: Deep Clean Toothpick, Size 1 (0.45mm), 40 Count by Rachel Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality product but.

They are great and easy to use. Of course, the molars (which is where I plan to use them primarily) are hard to reach, but that's the nature of your mouth. It's hard to use something that long unless you open your mouth very wide. Whatever product you use, you have to do it - square or not, long or not. Just for your information. But my real problem is that, like many others, I bought them because I wanted to create less waste. but after several uses (sometimes just one) you have to throw everything away. Bamboo or not, it's wasteful. I've attached a picture of all three I've tried: interdental gum brushes, these brushes, and interdental brushes. As you can see, the little brush is all you throw away when setting up the interdental spaces for the gums. Of course, the handle is made of plastic, but it lasts almost forever. I also use these picks for my tight spaces. To reuse them I just put them in the same cleaning solution I use for my retainers so they wash all together every time. They really work, and research shows that brushes are better than picks. but I switched to interdental brushes with plastic handles because there is much less waste. In my experience, you can even wash your brushes and use them for two days (or 4-6 brushes).

Pros
  • Combats tooth decay and gingivitis, gingivitis in hard-to-reach places (places that can be overlooked by regular brushing).
Cons
  • Socket required
