Travel Folding Soft Toothbrush (12 Pack)

These are perfect for my Invisalign treatment.

I have been buying Gum brand travel toothbrushes for years at local drugstore & big box stores. Then, I couldn’t find them for the last 4 yrs. Good thing I bought 2 extra when I could. They always cost a little more than other brand name & store brand travel toothbrushes. But they are worth paying a little extra. The Gum travel toothbrush uniquely folds & unfolds for portability. The plastic & folding joints are sturdy. The bristles are between soft & medium but not too stiff - they don’t fall out, bend over after one use, or when inserting in the holding space. Toothbrush folds compactly to about 1/2 the size of an adult toothbrush. It clicks quietly into place & holds in place open or closed. Case keeps the brush neat & clean for the journey. I’m so glad to find these again!

I love to use these when we travel. We are a family of 6 and it is super convention to just fold them and go. I always hate putting my toothbrush and hotel counters and this is a great way to set it down because it basically has a built in cap. Sometimes the handle folds when brushing but it's not that big of a deal. I do wish it came in more colors since I am a family of 6 and it only comes in 4 colors we have to write on them.

Now I have a lifetime supply of travel toothbrushes. At least I like them! really convenient for travel, folds into handle, sturdy when open.

So I purchased these in preparation for clear alignments. The goal was to first gauge if I could improve my teeth care habits before making the alignment purchase and wasting big money. I learned 2 things:I apparently was not ready for improving my habits, so I have not gotten my alignmentsAnd these tooth brushes are great!I use a Philips electric brush, but these brushes are my other go to.The bristles are soft, but clean really well as though they are also firm.I used these brushes when there are areas that still seem gritty after my Philips and when certain gumline areas need extra attention. Since they come in a pack and at a good price, I can easily have one in each bathroom. I don't really use them on the go, except for traveling, but if I were to step up my game, they would be useful.Occasionally, one will fold up on me when brushing. It's no headache for me. They have holes for ventilation, but if using it on the go, maybe wrapping it in a paper towel or cloth would help keep dust and debris from getting in.I might always purchase these brushes as long as they are available
