Dr. Collins Perio Toothbrush, 1 Count

Soft bristles made from quality materials (not rubber!) like store bought brushes. The Seller even threw a free brush in that was a different style..... Love it!

I've bought 2 of these so far, one for me and one for my daughter. I've been using Extra Soft toothbrushes from either the Colgate or OralB brands for many many years. I thought I would give the Dr Collins brand a try and I am very glad that I did. This Dr Collins toothbrush is extra soft with extra thin bristles and perfect for sensitive teeth and sensitive gums especially for gum recession. I especially like how the bristles are tapered with some slightly longer than others, which helps between teeth and around gums especially with crowded teeth. It actually feels like gums are being massaged while brushing, which is very healthy for gums. This is the best extra soft toothbrush that I have ever used.My daughter is using one of these as well. A dentist had her use the Nimbus brand when she had braces, and for some sensory issues. It worked well. She says that this Dr Collins toothbrush is just as good as the Nimbus. So if you are looking for a good toothbrush while wearing braces, then give Dr Collins a try.Overall, Dr Collins is a great toothbrush for those with sensitive teeth, or any perio issue such as gum recession or sensitive gums. It cleans very well, and even massages gums. It also works well with braces.

I have to use a soft toothbrush because of sensitive gums. What I've found is that even the brand name soft bristle brushes are too harsh for me. I found an extra soft sold under the CVS brand but after a few weeks the bristles collapsed and no longer cleaned my teeth well.I ordered this one in hopes that it might work for me. Wow! This is absolutely the best toothbrush I've ever used.The bristles, although very soft, do not collapse and splay out. I've not experienced any gum irritation at all.The bristles are quite thin so they do a good job of cleaning between the teeth.The handle is deceptively ergonomic. In other words no overly padded handle or other silliness that makes it look more like a tennis shoe than a toothbrush.I will say that the bristle head is pretty small. That works great for me because it gets to all those hard to reach spots. Just don't expect one of those hair brush sized bristle heads.The price is certainly competitive with the name brands that are of lesser quality.

I have suffered from sensitive teeth for years having a sealant applied every few months. On top of this four years ago I also was diagnosed with Trigeminal neuralgia on one side of my face. While I take medication to control this pain brushing teeth can trigger episodes of it. I have searched for soooo long for a toothbrush that is ‘soft’ bristled . This toothbrush is THAT toothbrush. Soft non irritation bristles that clean the teeth and gums without irritation. I’m never going back to another brand now that I have found this one! I don’t write reviews often but this toothbrush is worth it for those with similar challenges as myself.

This toothbrush is velvety soft so as to limit enamel over-abrasion on the bristle end and sturdy, ergonomic, and slip resistant on the handle end. It is clever in it's design, beautifully simplistic but perfectly proportioned for a superior mechanical brushing technique. It absolutely delivers on the promise of being a better brush for improved tooth and gum cleaning. The bristle tips are whisper thin, so thin they pass between the space between one's teeth and gums and sweep out caught food debris items that floss may fail to pick up or reach.A dentist once told me to position the brush at a 45 degree angle then "shimmy" back and forth to lower the bristles on the edge I've just created with the angle under the bit of gum around the front of the tooth. Finally I can follow this bit of advice because this is the only brush I have found that actually can work its way inside that incredibly tiny gap. It is the best toothbrush I have ever used, ever.

Initially, I thought this toothbrush out-shined all other brushes on the market. I needed a gentle brush that cleaned thoroughly between the teeth and gum line, without additional wear on my already receding gums. This was a temporary solution, but it still had a slight plastic feel to it. It is pretty soft and gentle, however after continuing the search for an even better brush (without being too weak for adult brushing) I discovered another brush that fit the criteria over and above the Perio, made by abcOralCare, the Yorum 5 model. That brush really worked better at cleaning for those of us with receding gums. This is a great alternative to all other drugstore or dentist-provided models and a good value. But for me, the Yorum 5 will remain THE toothbrush I use on a regular basis.
