I mean, it's the brush that does the cleaning isn't it? (Any dentists on the forum please comment.) I think it's marketing crock - "tartar control" this and "strengthening and whitening" that.

Bollocks to it all. A lot of effort is being wasted while the world is crying out for better mousetraps.

That second bottle of Sauvignon Blanc was a bit of a mistake, now wasn't it Deane?

Rinse!

My dentist told me that flossing is actually the key to oral hygiene.

I suppose paste is a bit like soap - you can wash your hands without soap, but it's easier with it isn't it?

You can get The Better Mouse Trap - it's a great little plastic device taht opens like a bull clip and snaps down hard when the little tongue inside is touched. works very well...

Yes, the wooden one was just too unhygenic.
