We’ve had good consistency with Rongsi bamboo and charcoal toothbrushs. $12 for 12 brushes, biodegradeable, and soft.

My toothbrush is so soft it’s like trying to fuck drunk.

find one you like, that’s ‘perfect’, couple months later you go back to get another…
they either don’t exist anymore, or are made different despite packaging and labeling saying they’re the same right down to the same upc code.

The inverse happened to me just recently. Tried out every “soft” brush in the store, all hard to medium. Bought one of them again and it’s feather soft. There has to be regulation on this because it just pisses me off to play toothbrush roulette.

How is your toothbrush damaging? You don’t need to press as hard as you can!!

Ask your dentist why they recommend soft toothbrushes next time you see them

I’ve never had a dentist or hygienist recommended any specific type of toothbrush to me outside of electric toothbrushes. The big thing they seem to care about is flossing.

You’re not using the wire bristle brushes are you? Those aren’t for teeth.

I don’t care what you’re saying. I’m not using those on my bunghole ever again!
If your gums aren’t healthy, it won’t matter how lightly you press if the bristles are too hard.

Clearly you’ve never had a soft brush. A “normal” brush will irritate my gums even when I press gently. An actual soft brush is comfortable no matter how hard I press.

I just buy the two pack of Colgate brushes at Dollar Tree and they are always the same softness.
