My baby likes this. I got it because I thought she'd find the texture interesting, and it's a good precursor to tooth brushing in that way. Though I didn't have one for my first baby and he transitioned to using a toothbrush without issue, I'd not consider this a 'must have' or anything. But it's fun and something a bit different. She definitely likes it, and finds it very easy to hold and nom on. One thing I don't like is that it really does pick up hairs/dust/lint like a magnet. It's a softer silicone, and you put it down literally anywhere and it *will* find a hair. Not the end of the world, but we've found we have to wash it off every time before we hand it to baby. Also means it's not great to throw in a bag either. Even in a clean bag, it'll still pick up stuff. You could travel it in a plastic bag, or reusable container, but I just am not going to go through that bother when we have other teethers that are less hassle. Also, considering babies spend a whole lot of time on the floor, it's inconvenient to have a toy that you have to clean so much (literally every single time it gets put down). And I keep my wood floors clean. But if baby is on a blanket or rug and this gets dropped, boom, hairs. Overall, it's a nice teether. The size and shape are really great and we'll designed for babies. But they need to find a silicone that's less attractive to all hairs, dust and lint. Read more
i got this when my daughters first teeth started coming in. she didn't like oragel or pacifiers, so teething was already a pain and i was kind of dreading brushing the teeth because the little silicone toothbrush from the safety first kit you slip on your finger was causing me to get bitten. So i figured this was a good compromise to the benefits of the silicone but not getting my fingers bitten. Not only did this work for teeth cleaning, but she didn't want to let go of it for teething. she chewed on it constantly. it was one of the best things ever when it came to needing to keep her occupied (like if i had to clip her nails) and at the same time have a good purpose such as brushing her teeth. now at 18 months old she still wants to keep it but also has a real tooth brush and knows how to brush her teeth which i attribute to this being something she held herself and i called it a toothbrush and told her she was brushing her teeth along with it giving the same sensation on the teeth with the tiny silicone bristles. Fantastic item, I recommend it to anyone with a baby with new teeth. Read more
Loved these! Ive used them as my babies approached 8 ish months and could hold it themselves, such a great chew item! Read more
My son loves it! Read more
Honestly I cannot recommend these enough as teethers. My baby would never take a pacifier but since we’ve had these he won’t go to bed without one in each hand! Sturdy, easy to clean and so easy for babies to hold onto themselves. Read more
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this toothbrush. And so does my toddler. We actually had to hide it in the medicine cabinet because we found her using it without us knowing and we didn't want it to end up on the floor! Now she walks in and asks for it every day. She can hold it well, and it fits in her moth wonderfully. The little bristles work on her teeth as well as helping sore gums as new teeth push through. It's durable and washes well. The only negative I can come up with really won't be an issue for most people - and that's that it easily fits down the drain. We had removed the sink stopper to work on the sink, and didn't think as we gave the baby her toothbrush... only to watch in horror as she finished brushing her teeth and shoved it down the drain before we could stop her. Being so flexible and soft, my husband had to actually pull the drain apart because we couldn't get it back out the way it went in. As a result, we are now on our second toothbrush and love it just as much as the first! Just watch your little ones to keep them from stashing it where it doesn't belong! Read more
My son hates it, he won't even put it in his mouth. I thought it'd be great for him to chew on, especially for teething, but he won't even try it. He is 9 months and has 8 teeth at this point, so it's becoming very important to try and introduce 'brushing' or at least the beginning of a teeth cleaning routine. We have been using teeth wipes so far, which he likes the flavor of, but we need more cleaning power. I think it's a good design, although it seems more geared for chewing rather than brushing actual teeth. The entire thing is soft and the mouthpiece has tiny plastic bristles (I'm almost concerned he can bite these pieces off, but again, he won't put it in his mouth). So if your baby needs to chew and 'clean' his gums, try this. Otherwise, try the banana brush like I am going to try. Read more
It’s great for small toddlers specially when they don’t necessarily want to brush their teeth. I like that it covers all sides of teeth for a quicker brush. I’ve been using them for months and it’s starting to loose a few hairs but for the most part it lasts given how much she bites into it. Read more
