IKOKids Finger Toothbrush + Clear Case, Soft Touch, No Toothpaste or Water Needed, 100% Recyclable Eco Child/Kids Home Dental Care, Mini Travel Oral Health Holiday Essential 4 Flavours - Strawberry

This toothbrush is a convenient and eco-friendly option for my daughter's teeth, requiring no toothpaste or water for use. Its soft touch and fun strawberry flavour make brushing enjoyable, while the recyclable design and included clear case make it perfect for travel.

Great finger brush to start your kids off with, great for kids with sensory issues as they can apply the amount of pressure needed themselves , as for the flavour not had any feedback yet.

This is a good idea. Its small, easy to slip in a bag and fits on your finger (although it's more adult than kid size). Even better it doesn't require tooth paste or water. However it has a very strong strawberry taste that I personally didn't like. It's also worth noting this is for children 6plus. I originally ordered this thinking it would be great for first teeth, but ended up using it instead.

Great quality and easy to use also very easy to clean

This review is for the 'iKo Kids Finger Toothbrush + Clear Case, Soft Touch, No Toothpaste or Water Needed, 100% Recyclable Eco Child... Mini Travel Oral Health Holiday Essential 4 Flavours - Strawberry'.This 'finger toothbrush' arrives within a small re-useable plastic box that is attached to a card. The card shows ingredients and details about the product.The small plastic box can be used to store the finger toothbrush in, but I find it quite difficult to open.The finger toothbrush is made of a soft rubbery-feel material (not silicone) and smells very strongly of an unpleasant chemical sort of smell, maybe the fluoride? I can also smell something vaguely resembling strawberry. I find the overall smell very off-putting.It fits on my small finger comfortably (I am a small adult lady).The idea is to brush it along teeth and gums. Because of the rubbery type material it squeaks as it polishes teeth.The details say no water or toothpaste is required, and it releases fluoride whilst brushing. This might be the unpleasant, burning sort of taste that I get from it.The ingredients are; Hydrogenated styrene/Butadiene Copolymer, Paraffinum Liquidum, Polypropylene, Sodium Fluoride, Strawberry Flavouring.It says it can be used up to 100 times. Once was more than enough for me!Details from the card; NOT SUITABLE for children under 6 years. Adult supervision recommended.(Some good points; It is free from latex, silicone SLS and chlorine, and it is re-cycleable.)I would not use this and would not give it to a child to use.I do not recommend it.

I should have looked more closely as I thought this is the kind of product to use when introducing the idea of tooth cleaning, or a stop gap for nursery-aged children when travelling or not getting on well with brushes. But the packet states that’s it’s for age six plus, by which time you hope to get them at least trying to start brushing independently. Could be used for children with sensory issues I suppose.

Easy to use on the go and doesn't require anything else. Small and very portable - can easily fit in a small pocket. Can encourage kids to take care of their teeth, even if they're not home or can do with a quick brush after a meal. I'm not completely convinced by it though and would always recommend traditional toothbrush and toothpaste brushing over anything else.

I like the idea of these. I know you can get similar ones for dogs to make teeth cleaning less stressful for them and it makes sense to have one for children too that they can use after meals when out and about or sleepovers for instance. Because it comes in its own little case it is great for travelling and mum can keep it in her handbag or pocket. I do confess to having used one myself as I hate being out and about and feeling like my teeth need a freshen up. I've only tried the strawberry one and it does taste subtly of strawberry, not too overwhelming.As it's worn on the finger you can feel exactly where in the mouth it is going and what area you are cleaning. Children that are old enough to trust with one would probably enjoy using it themselves under supervision. I also like the fact that it releases fluoride and there is no need for water so it can literally be used anywhere. At £7 at the time of writing, it is not cheap but it does say that it can be used over 100 times so time will tyell if it proves to be good value.
