Dental Swabs Unflavored Swabsticks-Oral Cavity Cleaning Mouth Swab, Tooth Shaped, Untreated Unflavored, Box of 150 Counts (Fruit Green)

These are about the best thing that you could throw into your purse (or murse:) and take with you (to work, school, any outing). It's not going to be as effective as a full-on teeth-brushing, but it's not supposed to be. You can use them anytime, anywhere, but I might go in a bathroom, and wipe my teeth with the one of the 'ridged' sides for about a minute. It says to 'optionally wet it," but I've been using them dry. Once you start rubbing them over your teeth (in swirls, up & down), your mouth will produce enough saliva (not TOO much), but enough to pretty quickly moisten the foam thing, and make it work better. After ab. 30 secs, I turn it over to the opposite ridged, clean side, for the next 30 secs or so. Great for after a meal, to freshen up, get any loose food out of your teeth. Works better than a toothpick, in my opinion. I think they should start maybe giving them 2-3 different flavors, like mint, etc.. And would be SUPER if they could come come sort of pre-moistened. But like I said, dry is fine, and does the job. Takes a few times to get used to the feel, and to get better with what technique dislodges any food/gunk in your teeth. The individ. plastic package is sturdy, and won't just easily rip open in your purse or bag. You might get a small rubber band, & wrap it around 10 or so (5 going one way, 5 the other), then throw it in your bag; use after eating when you can't brush. Might also be useful to use one, then swish around a mouthful or two of water or mouthwash, the spit or swallow that, to get rid of any food that you were "saving for later." Ha..

Excellent product. High quality and apt for use in children in extremely delicate health conditions.

The individual wrapped swabs are highly recommended for people who need to make sure their oral hygiene is maintained after major surgery. I would recommend them.

I use them to clean a Lary tube (laryngectomy tube). I do this three to five times a day. The swabs with a paper handle deteriorate after one use. These are FANTASTIC with a plastic handle and the sponge is is larger and works perfectly. They are far better and are multi-use. I can use one all day, and with care two days EASILY. I bought 150 thinking 30-90 days worth of use. Surprise, they'll go all 150 days and more.

Works great for moisturizing throat/mouth

Really helped when my mom was sick to keep her hydrated.

Would recommend this.

These swabs are conveniently individually wrapped. Good for swabbing my elderly relative’s mouth when brushing not possible.
