Oral-B Launches New Range of Manual Toothbrushes

The gloomy news of an economic downturn has meant we’ve all had to cut corners, but thanks to Oral-B’s new range of manual toothbrushes there’s one area where you won’t need to compromise – your family’s oral health.

A recent survey* conducted by Oral-B showed that more than a third of Kiwi women (35%) said they had put off a visit to the dentist in the past year because of financial worries.

That means a good oral hygiene routine at home is more important than ever. Oral-B has come to the rescue with a line-up of the high quality, manual toothbrushes developed from 50 years of expertise. The new manual offering gives you great value for money and includes a toothbrush for every set of teeth, whether they’re yours, your children’s or someone with special dental needs.

The Oral-B CrossAction manual toothbrush is clinically proven to remove up to 90% more plaque in those hard-to-reach areas.

Its clever CrissCross™ bristles penetrate to lift out and sweep plaque away from between teeth and along the gumline. The angled bristles are also slightly longer which means they’re able to clean deeper throughout the brush stroke - resulting in excellent plaque removal compared to a flat trim manual toothbrush.

With a busy family life often the little things like remembering exactly when to change your toothbrush can get forgotten - so Oral B has taken care of that too! The CrossAction toothbrush has INDICATOR® blue bristles which fade over time to show when they’re worn – so you’ll know when you need to replace your brush!

The Oral-B CrossAction toothbrush features white, micro-textured POWER TIP™ bristles to clean those areas more difficult to reach and has a non-slip, universal thumbgrip for control even when wet. The ergonomically designed handle gives you ultimate comfort and manoeuvrability.

For a great all-around clean look no further than the Oral-B Advantage 123.

This great value toothbrush reaches between teeth to remove plaque, helps freshen breath and massages gums for three great benefits in one brush!

The Advantage 123 has multi-level bristles and an angled power tip to help remove hard to reach plaque while the textured tongue cleaner removes odour-causing germs for fresh breath so you’ll feel confident every time you step out the door.

Its soft rubber stimulators gently massage gums and you’ll know exactly when the toothbrush needs replacing thanks to the INDICATOR® bristles. The Advantage 123 also provides excellent control and manoeuvrability.

The Oral-B Fresh Clean toothbrush has all your basic brushing needs taken care of. Its cup-shaped bristles are designed to clean in-between teeth while the moulded tongue cleaner helps freshen breath.

Oral-B Fresh Clean also has INDICATOR® bristles and comes in a variety of fun colours including; green, orange and red.

Smaller mouths, small teeth and sometimes no teeth at all - caring for children’s teeth adds a whole new dimension to oral hygiene. That’s why Oral-B created Stages – a range of toothbrushes designed especially for kids.

Oral-B Stages toothbrushes are designed to address the changes in your growing child’s teeth, skills and interests from four months to eight years. Each is thoughtfully designed to help address the needs of your child whatever their stage of development.

The Oral-B Stages toothbrush has a specially designed bristle pattern and brush-head size to suit differing dentition needs and has a tailor-made handle for a comfortable grip to help make brushing easy.

Your child will also love the appealing colours and designs of the Stages range which features much loved characters like; Winnie the Pooh, Disney Princesses and Buzz Lightyear that help motivate kids to get involved in the brushing routine.
