Q. Why can a Finger-Brush clean one’s mouth
so well?

A. The soft dentifrice-treated cleaning tip gives one fingertip touch and control. This gentle and intimate approach allows one to brush each tooth individually. The heaviest plague areas like those along the gum line between the teeth, are easily cleaned using the cleaning tip’s fluffy side edges. All areas of the mouth can be made plaque-free, including the tongue, gums, cheeks, roof of the mouth, and as one finishes, the lips, for that clean-from-the-dentist feeling.

Q. How good is the Finger-Brush at fighting
bad breath?

A. It’s the best. Researchers indicate that germ-filled plaque is the cause of most bad breath. Plaque is a sticky film of decaying food debris and up to 300 types of living and dead bacteria. Destructive odor-filled plaque collects all over inside the mouth, most noticeably on the teeth along the gum line. The tongue is another heavy plaque area. Wiping the mouth free of plaque frees the mouth of plaque’s odor.

Q. When using Finger-Brushes is flossing needed?

A. Yes, just as with regular tooth brushing, dental floss is still needed to clean those deep-down areas in between the teeth where only floss is designed to go.

Q. How often should one brush with
a Finger-Brush?

A. Dentists recommend brushing after each meal. This has always been difficult for people confined to a bed or on the go. Not any more. Finger-Brushes go where you go, ready when you are.

Q. Can a Finger-Brush help prevent colds and flu?

A. You bet! Anyone infected with a cold and/or flu bug infects their toothbrush. Leaving an infected toothbrush in a warm and moist bathroom encourages germs to reproduce by the millions. The multiplying germs can reinfect the user. Worse, infected toothbrushes in a holder can and will infect other toothbrushes. The result, the household gets sick and stays sick by reinfecting each other. The solution: one-time use Finger-Brushes.

Q. How long should one brush with a Finger-Brush?

A. Dentists recommend brushing long enough to get one’s teeth free of plaque. Running the tongue over the teeth after using a Finger-Brush is convincing evidence. Want to make certain? Use a dental disclosing tablet available from your dentist or pharmacy. A disclosing tablets, used after a Finger-Brush, will quickly determine how plaque free one’s teeth are.

Q. How long can one brush with a Finger-Brush?

A. Brush vigorously, as long as you like, quite literally until your arms feel tired. A healthy mouth should never become sensitive from a soft cleaning tip. Always choose a convenient time and place, get comfortable, and enjoy oral care.

Q. Can Finger-Brushes deliver the kind of gum massage dentists recommend?

A. Yes, and Finger-Brush gum massage is important for building and maintaining healthy teeth. When the gums go, so go the teeth. For example, peridontists tell mothers to massage and clean the gums of their newborn infants, prior to and as their first teeth come in. This is assurance that the new teeth are entering into the cleanest possible environment.


Q. How does a Finger-Brush compare with
a toothbrush?

A. Toothbrushes are designed for use with the usual bathroom back-up: toothpaste, glass, running water, sink, towel, and a mirror. Studies indicate, standing in front of a sink in the confines of a bathroom, most adults average 45 seconds brushing and children average about 15 seconds. Finger-Brushes are designed for use away from the bathroom and back-up is not needed. They can get one’s mouth virtually plaque free, when confined to a bed, or on the go, anytime, anywhere. The gentle brushing and unrushed convenience of a Finger-Brush, often lasting several minutes, promotes the best in oral care.
