The Perio Toothbrush is unlike any other toothbrush on the market. With its innovative, tapering technique, the Perio Toothbrush features super slim polyester bristles that penetrate further between the teeth to remove plaque and debris. The Perio Toothbrush bristles are also ultra soft, reducing the likelihood of abrasion and recession while simultaneously allowing gentle gum stimulation. The polyester bristles of the Perio Toothbrush are less porous, creating a more hygienic brushing experience. The bristle also lasts approximately 50% longer than a standard nylon toothbrush. The Perio Toothbrush is great for all ages, including those undergoing orthodontic treatment, suffering from sensitivity or gum recession. Most people don't floss or floss only occasionally. Many people also use harsh or hard brushes under the false impression that they will provide a more efficient cleaning.

They can also damage the gums, promoting bleeding and opening the way for bacterial penetration, resulting in tooth decay and gum disease.Perio Toothbrush penetrates the areas between teeth and gums removing plaque and food particles, while gently massaging gums without pain and bleeding. It gives you cleaner teeth, healthier gums and saves tooth enamel from abrasion. Dr. Collins Perio Toothbrush helps prevent cavities and provides overall oral hygiene and fresher breath.
