I got all excited when Brushups became available, because at the time I was spending a lot of weekends and nights over at The Boy’s house.
A toothbrush that I can put in my purse? Sold.
I never really got around to trying brushups, but I recently got a chance to check out Dentaburst, a new product along the same lines.
Kinda like gum
It comes in a packet not much bigger than a fancy gum pack, except you open it and there are little packets. Rip open the packet, and you get a little sleeve, made of a plasticky material. Think the bibs at the dentist’s office.
So you slip the sleeve on your finger and brush away.
Have you ever found yourself somewhere without your toothbrush and just used toothpaste on your finger and brushed away? This is kind of the same. You can’t really sense a pasty feel at all, however.
Minty goodness
You would expect the little plastic sleeve to be…not very minty, but this is altoid minty. I tried these guys after a particularly garlicky dinner, and they certainly worked.
It was like gum. Really. But…not. I’m not really sure how they can remove much plaque since the surface was more or less flat, but maybe I’m missing something.
To buy or no?
I think I would buy a package to take with me on trips or maybe stash in my purse. I’m slightly bothered by all the packaging though. A cardboard box to house the little sleeves and the cardboard box comes in another box.
