Radius Toothbrush

Properly brushing your teeth can help prevent cavities,  and periodontal, or gum disease,  which causes  adult tooth loss. It is highly important to practice good dental hygeine by properly brushing your teeth atleast twice a day.  It is also important to use a toothbrush that will help you acheive a healthy looking smile,  that is why I was more than willing to review a toothbrush from Radius.com/.  Radius is a brand that is rather unique, due to the fact that their brand of toothbrushes offer a wide head area,  full of soft bristles,  all on a comfortable handle.    In fact,  a normal toothbrush has only 2,00 bristles, while the  Radius toothbrush  offers up to 6,500!

Did you know that the average toothbrush is thrown away after ten months?  Sixty percent of Radius users reported three times longer than an average toothbrush!  That means you don't have to replace it as often as usual toothbrushes,  which means it saves us money!  The Radius Original and Scuba toothbrush are designed with an asymmetric layout that places the bristles automatically at an angle to the teeth,  which is recommended by the ADA.  The large surface of the head allows you to apply far less pressure on your gums so they massage your gums making brushing your teeth more of a enjoyable process. 

I selected two different toothbrushes manufactured by Radius  to review.  The first one I chose to review was their  Source Toothbrush.  The thing that really stood out about this toothbrush is the fact that the handle is made out of recycled US Treasury bills.  If you look closely at the handle you can actually see the little peices of dollar bills!  The large size of the handle make it extremely easy to grip,  so I didnt have to use as much pressure on my gums while brushing. 

Along with the large size of the bristle head,  making brushing an ease!   The Source Toothbrush comes with a replacement head that weighs just 7 % of the total toothbrush weight.  You may also want to purchase a travel case for your toothbrush for only $1.49.  You can purchase a Source Toothbrush from Radius for only $5.21 or find it at local stores such as Amazon.com,  Target,  Whole Foods Market,  Wegmans and many other stores.  If you are having trouble finding a retailer that sells Radius Toothbrushes be sure to call their customer service line for information on store locations.

The second item I chose to review is one of their Pure Baby Toothbrush for ages six to eighteen months.  I figured it would be perfect for my youngest son who just turned one in April,  and it was!  The white toothbrush is perfectly designed for my little one as it is designed to be chewed!  And you know babies are constantly trying to chew anything that goes into their little mouths.  This toothbrush is actually the worlds first completely dye- free toothbrush,  and is BPA free.  It is designed with an oval head with non-aligned bristle layout to avoid tooth erosion.  This particlular toothbrush can be purchased single,  or in a pack of  three,  or six.  My baby loved this toothbrush,  and didnt fuss at all while I brushed his teeth.

FIREFLY

Okay,   so you either have kids that love to brush their teeth,  or you have kids like mine,  who hate to brush their teeth!  Well maybe with the exception of my two year old...he loves brushing his teeth!  Anyways,   I found a great product,  that actually helps motivate children to brush their teeth!  FIREFLY offers a way for kids to have fun while brushing their teeth.  Why is FIREFLY products so great your probably wondering!

FIREFLY products are great because each toothbrush contains a blinking red light which blinks for exactly one minute,  before turning off.  That is the time that it takes for you to brush one row of teeth.  After the timer goes off ,  you simply turn it on again,  and brush your other row of teeth.  How cool is that!!!  As a child,  I would have loved having a built in timer on my toothbrush!  Besides the timer,  they also come in different colors,  and your child's favorite characters! 

For the review FIREFLY sent me several of their awesome  toothbrushes to review.  When I received the package,  I was pleasantly surprised with all of the toothbrushes they sent me!   I received girls themed toothbrushes,  as well as boy themed too.  The characters included:  Snoopy,  Hot Wheels,  Spiderman,  Barbie,  and Hello Kitty.  I also received some plain colored toothbrushes that also included a built in timer.  Batteries are also included making it convenient for me!  I don't have to use my own batteries,  which saves me a little bit of money.

First,  I had my sons choose their favorite FIREFLY toothbrushes,  then they went straight to the bathroom to try them out!  We pressed the button and it immediately started blinking!  Then they had one minute to brush their bottom teeth.  After that they turned it back on and brushed the other row until the red light stopped blinking.  They loved the blinking built in timer,  as they knew exactly how long to brush each row of teeth for.  You know its time to purchase a new toothbrush when the light stops working(usually about 3 months.) 

FIREFLY Toothbrushes comes in sizes:  4-24 months,  2-4 years,  5-7 years,  and 8+ years so there is a size to fit each of your children! 

My kids need a toothbrush that is gentle on their little gums,  and that is exactly what these toothbrushes provided!  Some of the toothbrushes are sparkly,  which I thought was extra cute!  Be on the look out there will be new character products being released soon including "Batman"!  FIREFLY Toothbrushes can be purchased for anywhere from 98 cents to three dollars which is a deal for such an innovative toothbrush!  FIREFLY products made "toothbrush time"  fun and enjoyable,  instead of the ordinary- boring and dull!  FIREFLY Toothbrushes are highly innovative, and just what you need to get your children brushing their teeth more often.
