Our Take on TePe’s Yellow Interdental Brush Set

Posted on:

When we first opened the TePe Yellow Interdental Brush set, we were curious whether these tiny tools could really make a noticeable difference to our daily routine. Designed specifically for cleaning those tight spaces between teeth, the soft bristles felt gentle yet purposeful as we guided them along the gum line. We appreciated the slim, flexible wire, which allowed us to maneuver around crowded areas without too much bending or fraying. Over several uses, we found that these brushes reached plaque our regular toothbrush clearly missed, especially around dental work and tight contacts. While the bright yellow color is purely cosmetic, it did make each brush easy to spot in a crowded bathroom drawer. Overall, this pack of 25 felt like a practical, no-fuss addition to our oral care toolkit.

Toothpaste

Our Honest Take on NOBS Eco Toothpaste Tablets

Posted on:

When we first swapped our familiar tube for NOBS Eco Toothpaste Tablets, we were mostly curious-and a little skeptical. The promise of “no bad stuff,” plastic-free packaging, and nano hydroxyapatite for remineralization sounded impressive, but we wanted to see how it actually felt in daily use. The tablets are easy to pop and chew, and they foam enough to feel like a proper brush, without the slick, artificial aftertaste some pastes leave behind. We appreciated that they’re both fluoride and plastic free, which aligns with a more low-waste routine, especially for travel. Over the month, our teeth felt clean and smooth, though the flavor might be milder than mint enthusiasts expect. Overall, NOBS offers a thoughtful balance between dental care and eco-conscious design.

Floss

Our Honest Take on the FLAUS Electric Flosser

Posted on:

When we first picked up the FLAUS Electric Flosser, we wondered if it was just another buzzy gadget boosted by Oprah’s List and Shark Tank fame. After a few weeks of consistent use, we can say it’s at least earned our attention. The three speed settings make it easy to find a rhythm that feels right, especially if, like us, you have a few sensitive spots along your gumline. The gentle, vibrating motion does feel less harsh than traditional floss, and the 45 refill heads included in the box make it simple to stick with the habit. While it won’t fully replace a water flosser or every kind of interdental cleaning, we see it as a thoughtful, more enjoyable upgrade to our usual flossing routine.

Mouthwash

Our Take on TheraBreath’s Icy Mint Fresh Breath

Posted on:

When we first twisted the cap off TheraBreath’s Icy Mint Fresh Breath Mouthwash, we braced ourselves for the familiar sting of traditional rinses. Instead, we were met with a surprisingly gentle formula that still managed to deliver a crisp, cooling kick. The alcohol-free blend meant we could swish for the full recommended time without that burning urge to spit early. We also appreciated that the mint was refreshing without veering into artificial candy sweetness. Over time, we noticed our breath stayed neutral and clean-tasting rather than temporarily masked by strong flavor. The 16 fl oz bottles in this two-pack feel practical for daily use, and the design is straightforward and clinical, which reinforces the “serious care” vibe. Overall, it struck us as a thoughtful upgrade from the typical mouthwash experience.

Toothbrush

Our Take on Oral-B’s Smart Kids Toothbrush

Posted on:

When we first unboxed the Oral-B Kids Electric Toothbrush with Coaching Pressure Sensor and Timer, we were curious whether all that “smart” promise would actually matter at the bathroom sink. The design is clearly kid-focused-bright, playful, and just chunky enough for small hands to grip without fumbling. Once we powered it on, the built‑in timer and pressure sensor quickly became the stars. The gentle buzz change when too much force is used is subtle enough not to startle, yet noticeable enough to guide better brushing habits. We also appreciated the rechargeable battery, which saves us from hunting down replacement cells every few weeks. While it doesn’t magically make reluctant brushers leap toward the sink, it does turn daily brushing into a more structured, guided routine that feels easier for us to supervise.
