cardinalsfan86 says "Best floss for getting the hard to reach places" about Oral-B Satin Floss

cardinalsfan86 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 03:09:32 GMT

For someone who is picky about her floss, this brand definitely wins me over and gets the job done! I have always liked the satiny type of floss, but Oral B's version is definitely a great value and does an amazing job at getting to those hard to reach places. Getting the floss out of the container is super easy as the container itself has a very grippable shape. Once you get to the flossing part, I have found that this brand definitely takes care of fully cleaning between your teeth without forcing you to go back between teeth over and over again to get that last stubborn food particle wedged between the teeth. The floss also leaves your mouth with a refreshing minty flavor that is satisfying for someone who is always worried about how her breath smells. Easy to find in most stores, and be on the lookout for coupons so you can score a great deal on this wonderful product. The pricing cannot be beat!

bbsmc430 says "Gets the job done!!!!" about Rotadent Electric Tooth Brush

bbsmc430 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 01:26:17 GMT

I got a Rotadent toothbrush about one year ago. I got it from my dentist. I payed $100 for this toothbrush which my insurance covered. I have been using this toothbrush ever since. The toothbrush comes with the base and three different kinds of brush tips and a holder for all. There are two flat brush tips and a pointed one. I like the pointed one the best.

I have recommend this toothbrush to family and friends who have also purchsed one and loved it also. They thanked me the day they got it home.

The best part about this toothbrush is the fact that is comes with a lifetime warranty. I think that makes it worth the $100 I payed for it. I wasn't sure if I would be upset with myself after I payed $100 for a toothbrush but I have never felt bad for buying it yet. I love the rotadent and will never have another brand of toothbrush again. This will be the only toothbrush I will buy!

acebb08 says "My regular toothpaste- builds strong teeth" about Crest Pro-Health Clean Cinnamon Toothpaste

acebb08 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:50:13 GMT

This toothpaste is wonderfully scented and has the right combination of ingredients to help build healthy teeth. I have always trusted the Crest brand based on my dentist's recommendations. I am very picky about my toothpaste, and after finding this brand, I do not envision myself ever switching. It is a more high priced toothpaste, but the health of your teeth depends on you treating them the right way. It is an actual paste, and the cinnamon flavor is not overwhelming like so many toothpaste brands are. Crest pridese itself on not only helping to fight cavities, but also fighting against gum disease and bad breath, which are problems that can plague individuals as they age. The flavor is long lasting, and you are not left to wonder how your breath smells when you use this product. It also advertises itself as helping to whiten your teeth, and regular use of this product will leave your dentist visits worry-free!

jennyfrances says "For your Sensitive teeth use Natural White Sensitive tootpast" about Lornmead Natural White Senstive Toothpaste

jennyfrances — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:02:26 GMT

My husband and I both suffer from sensitive teeth. The name brand toothpaste for this problem is really high. So we would use it every other brushing. One day I went to town with a friend of mine. We wasn't looking for anything in particular. Just going from store to store. Where we live we have these stores called DEALS where everything is $1.00. You can get some good stuff there. Well my friend wonted to go so we went. While in there I found this tooth paste. Natural White Sensitive Whitening Toothpaste. I ponderer on it a minute or two and thought why not try it. It's just a dollar. I ended up getting 2. I brought them home and showed my husband what I had found just for a dollar. To my surprise it works and alot better than the higher brands. I haven't had any trouble with the problems I was having before. So this will be the toothpaste we will use for now own. It foams good and has a good taste. I'm really pleased. I't also made here in the USA.

ssubocz says "Takes the hassle out of flossing." about Oral-B Power Whitening Flosser

ssubocz — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:33:21 GMT

The Oral B Power whitening flosser definitely delivers. This is a great way to get your kids to floss. Reaches all teeth easily, and you don't have to fumble around in your mouth to do a good job. Even small children can figure this out. I've been using mine for months and no need to change the batteries, either. The changeable tips are easy to use, and you can even mount the tip holder on the wall if you want. Only possible things to make this better would be to have a variety of colors so you could use multiple ones in the same bathroom without worrying whose is whose. Also, it would be better if there were a stand or holder that you could sit it in. As for results, for the first time in years I did not get any grief from my dentist about flossing. That alone is worth the price of the unit. Another downfall is that it seems to be difficult to buy the replacement tips alone - every place I've looked has been out of them.

clp836 says "Very good product. Worth the investment" about Sonicare Essence 5300

clp836 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 19:44:22 GMT

Sonicare Essence 5300 electric toothbrush is a great investment in your families dental health. It is a bit pricey, particularly when you consider the cost of replacement brushes, but it is really worth it in my opinion. It leaves your mouth very clean and it is easy to use even for my small children to use. They often don't brush very well, and do a much better job with this toothbrush (although they still need a little help from Mom). Th.is product was recommended by my dentist. We have been using it for several months and I can see a difference in our teeth and gums. The children also seem to enjoy brushing with it. No service issues yet. I would highly recommend this product. There are more expensive models offered, but I found that this one does the job very well. I bought the individual units, and didn't show around much, so there may be models that are more economical for a family.

sheiman says "Crest SpinBrush Pro Whitening makes brushing a breeze." about Crest SpinBrush Pro Whitening

sheiman — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:57:37 GMT

A couple years back I decided to try out one of those electric (battery powered) toothbrushes you can find at the drugstore. I picked out the Crest SpinBrush Pro Whitening, because who doesn't want whiter teeth?

I've been using this toothbrush for a couple years now, switching out the head for a fresh one every few months. I really like how it cleans. The head has like a dual-action motion going on - a rotating part at the tip and a scrubbing part. It really feels like it's getting in between my teeth and doing a great job cleaning.

The toothbrush takes 2 AA batteries and I've found that with regular use (twice a day brushing) the batteries last for at least a couple months at a time. So it's not one of those battery draining devices that becomes 'not worth it' quickly due to the battery expense.

I will say that there is some gunk buildup in the battery compartment that I've had to clean out with a q-tip. Maybe it's just because I've had the toothbrush for awhile now, it may be that I just...

CallieN says "Braun Electronic Toothbrush cleans my teeth thoroughly!" about Braun Electronic Toothbrush

CallieN — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 17:18:24 GMT

The Braun Electric Toothbrush is great because it cleans your teeth and you really feel like you're mouth and teeth are sparkling when you get done. I don't like that it tends to spray stuff because it spins so fast but it is a good product if you want your teeth to shine and want to make sure that you are getting a good brushing in. We have stopped buying normal brushes altogether because we can just replace the rotating head on our Braun Toothbrush and it is very inexpensive to do so. Plus, everyone in the family can use the toothbrush using their own toothbrush head. It is not necessary to buy multiple electronic tooth brushes for everyone. I would recommend this toothbrush if you are going to get a new one and feel like you don't want to worry about having unclean teeth even after you have brushed. I have had an electronic toothbrush from Braun for several years and I will continue to use it.

sunninjim says "Oral B Professional Care 1000 Power Toothbrush works great." about Oral-B Oral-B Professional Care 1000 Power ToothBrush

sunninjim — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 17:07:21 GMT

Oral B 1000 Professional Care Oscillating Toothbrush really works. It has 40000 Oscillations per minute to losen plaque and 80000 oscillations per minute to sweep the plaque away. Great for keeping your teeth and gums healthy. It is also nowhere as expensive as some of the others on the market and yet it does the same type of job. The compact round brush was also designed by dental professionals to make sure this lives up to the best standards available. While other similar toothbrushes can go for upwards of over $200 this one is actually quite affordable at under $70. Which is why I not only own one I bought 3 more. One for my son, one for my daughter and one for her husband. This toothbrush also has a 2 minute timer that you can stop at 30 seconds per quadrant to make sure that you brush each quadrant of your mouth sufficiently. Everyone knows a healthy mouth also helps w/ protecting yourself from other types of germs so this is not only a great gift item for the holidays but also a...

Pmemoli says "Clean n' Easy" about Sonicare Sonicare Elite

Pmemoli — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 16:17:00 GMT

This is a great toothbrush. The heads are a bit pricey, but it cleans well, has lasted me over three years and still works great. I even use it with an old head to clean my face like the new claritronic face brush! The only thing I don't like about it is that for some reason it accumulates goop inside of it, like toothpaste goop, which I occaisionally wipe out with a tissue or baby wipe and this seems to work so far. The brush charges quickly, and lasts a few days on one charge. The light is bright enough to light the bathroom as a nightlight!

monkeface says "Listerine Cool Mint Mouthwash is the best!" about Listerine Cool Mint

monkeface — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:05:28 GMT

Listerine Cool Mint Mouthwash is the best! I have been using this product for many years and have yet to find anything better. Though my previous dentist had recommended other mouthwashes at times, I find this one is the best. My current dentist uses various Listerine products and flavors in his office. :)

I've tried store brands, as well as other name brand mouthwashes. I've also tried other Listerine flavors, but I ALWAYS come back to the old tried and true Listerine Cool Mint. I just don't get the clean feeling from other mouthwashes that I get from this one.

Some people complain of the "burn" this mouthwash has. Personally, I like the burn. It seems to kill more germs and I definitely feel fresher longer. I need the burn! I beleieve, however, that the product has been watered down from what it used to be, perhaps because of complaints. I don't know. It just doesn't seem to burn like it used to.

saterry says "Dentist recommended!" about Sonicare FlexCare 900 Series Electric Toothbrush

saterry — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:49:38 GMT

I have been a dentist for almost twenty years, so I choose to use a lot of products before I give advice. I have used this brand of electric tooth brush for over ten years. This model is a great advance over the last model. The brush heads are less complicated (less expensive) and the sanitizer is really a nice addition to the system This brush leaves your teeth feeling very clean. It is a great tool for people who brush their teeth too hard. I recommend it to many patients for this purpose. It also is great for people who have gingivitis (or bleeding gums).

One feature that I find useful is the timer. Many people think they are brushing their teeth long enough. This brush has a simple built-in timer that times in 30 second intervals. Many dentists will tell you to brush for at least two minutes. Time yourself. You probably aren't brushing long enough. Ironically, many people are also "over-achievers" and brush too hard and too long for good health. This brush...

stef42678 says "Great for Clean and Sensitive Teeth" about Sensodyne iso-active Foaming Gel

stef42678 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:51:17 GMT

During the winter, my teeth become extremely sensitive in the cold, as well as I periodically suffer from sensitive teeth with hot or cold foods, so I need a toothpaste that won't add to the pain. Sensodyne iso-active Foaming Gel is a great solution for anyone who has sensitive teeth, or wants pain free toothbrushing. The Sensodyne brand is great for those with sensitive teeth and I have been using their products for a while and this is my new favorite. Instead of a regular toothpaste tube, this formula comes in a small canister that squirts the gel. The nozzle requires just a small amount of pressure and instantly your toothbrush is covered in enough toothpaste. The gel has a great foaming action that works in your mouth. The taste is mint, but not too strong and really cleanses your mouth and your teeth. I love how refreshing my mouth feels after using, and the gel makes my brush feel soft against my teeth and gums. This is inexpensive and a great way to get your teeth...

jcfalzoi says "Dentek ruined my Teeth!" about DenTek Triple Clean Floss Picks

jcfalzoi — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 04:21:11 GMT

I checked "willing to pay for quality" above to describe me because after using DenTek picks my teeth have been ruined. I thought DenTek offered a good "green" product (not so if they manufacture overseas) and I bought a pack of 90 picks. I used them for the first time tonight. And I agree with the previous reviewer -- I it takes four picks to get all the teeth. By the time I reached four, however, shredded and harsh on the teeth and gums, I "gently" pulled out the floss from between two teeth and my teeth pulled out of place with it! My teeth hurt and the bite is all wrong. I want to sue this company because my dental insurance does not cover moving teeth back into place. I am 42 and have very healthy teeth and gums. I have been using dental picks of different kinds for over a year. None of Dentek's claims are true. They do not slide easily between your teeth. They cut your gums. They are totally inefficient and harmful. Not to mention cheap-looking.......

happy123 says "Fresh and cool feeling clean and tingly! " about Crest Extra White Plus Scope, Mint Splash

happy123 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 03:28:13 GMT

Crest Extra White Plus Scope Mint leaves my teeth very clean and my breath cool and fresh for quite a long time. I love the mint flavor and the smooth feeling my teeth have after brushing. My teeth look whiter and due to the great flavor, I think I may actually brush longer!

The best part is the cool, refreshed feeling left in your mouth after brushing and rinsing. It lasts a very long time.

This may be off task, but I find keeping my teeth brushed and clean helps me avoid food cravings...and I have a notorious sweet tooth!

Don't expect DRAMATIC whitening effects. This is just a toothpaste. However, with regular cleanings this can help maintain your pearly whites in a pearly white color!

Crest Extra White Plus Scope Mint is very reasonably priced, and coupons are easy to find for it as well, making it quite a bargain!

I would highly recommend it to a friend, and will likely purchase it for myself and my family again soon.

mamontenegro says "I'm a lazy dental patient" about Listerine Cool Mint

mamontenegro — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 01:22:19 GMT

I'm really not the type who should be giving dental advice since I can be careless about my own dental care sometimes. I'm more of a brush and go kind of girl rather than a brush for the recommended amount of time, floss meticulously and rinse with the perfectly measured amount of mouthwash kind of girl. I've started using mouthwash as a way to complement my brushing habits, and I've found that it really does make my mouth feel healthier and my breath smell a lot fresher. After trying other mouthwashes, I have settled on Listerine. I've used many different varieties, including the vanilla flavored, mint flavored and Total Care. I've started using the Total Care most frequently, but all of them work well. I'm not exactly a fan of having to rinse for the recommended minute because it does sting a little bit, but it's so worth it because of the difference it makes in my dental health. Not only does the Listerine help to freshen breath, it also helps with making my teeth sparkle and look...

mypointsdillard says "Awesome toothbrush" about Oral-B Triumph Electric Toothbrush

mypointsdillard — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:38:00 GMT

I counldn't be more pleased with this product. It does a great job cleaning your teeth and the timer is really helpful. My dentist told me that I was supposed to brush for two minutes and before I used this timer, I was thought I was covering everything and I was brushing for maybe 20 seconds. This definitely forces me to be more thorough. Now if only I had this product when I was a kid, maybe I wouldn't have had so many cavities.

This toothbrush is an outstanding product. I bought it to replace and old unit that the battery was not working well after 2 years of use. I have to tell you, that this tooth brust definitey does what it says that it is supposed to do.

I have been so thrilled with the results that I have acquired form this, that I have bought one for my husband, as well as other members of my family as gifts/stocking stuffers. Hint, Hint, Hint.

Definitely the right price for such a wonderful and helpful product. I would highly recommend this item to all!

mdselwood says "This foaming toothpaste gets between teeth for a super clean!" about Aquafresh Isoactive Whitening Toothpaste Deep Inpact

mdselwood — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:25:43 GMT

Aquafresh Iso-active Whitening Toothpaste Deep Inpact is a gel that reacts to the brushing in your mouth, turning it into a deep-cleaning foam. The foam gets in between my teeth and gums, to clean and kill bacteria. This toothpaste gives me a "fresh from the dentist" feeling of clean. It leaves my mouth minty fresh and my teeth feel clean and look whiter. This toothpaste works better than any other toothpaste I have ever used, and I am always out to try different toothpastes. This toothpaste reminds me of the scrubbing bubbles from a tub cleaning product. The foam gets into those places where your brush cannot reach. The toothpaste dispenses like a shaving cream can, so it can get a bit messy. You simply press down on the top of the dispenser to release the toothpaste. This is a little hard to do sometimes; you may have to press a little hard to get the toothpaste out. But that is the only drawback to using this toothpaste, and I think the benefits clearly outweigh the dispensing issue....

akjane says "Anything to Encourage Brushing" about Crest spinbrush

akjane — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:09:19 GMT

Getting the kids motivated to brush their teeth is always a chore. So I was thrilled when I found the Crest Spinbrush in Pokemon and Hulk characters. Now I have 2 boys who race to the bathroom to get their teeth shiny clean. The mechanism is quiet and easy enough for my 3 year old to turn on and off easily. I also like that it stands on its own. The price was also very reasonable, since you will be replacing it every few months. The one thing that I would like to see added in the future, perhaps is some sort of timer, so they know they have brushed long enough. Some of the other electronic brushes out there play a soug or automatically stop when a certain amount of time is up. For now, we just set a littel timer and that works, but it would be nice if it were built in. You can also save on the toothbrush by searching the crest site for coupons. The regular spinbrush coupon [$2 off] will work on the kids version too.
