Colgate Wisp

Message

#1 Post by **VaniBella** » Sat May 30, 2009 4:24 am

I just thought I'd add a tip if anyone was interested-

I have started carrying Colgate Wisps (found in drugstores, CVS etc...) they are little travel brushes with a bead of fresh and cleaning solution and have a floss/pick on the opposite end. They require no water and perfect for on the go. I use them when I am out and cant brush after I eat so I know my teeth are clean when putting my aligners back in.

hope some of you can find this helpful.

Thanks, I'm not sure whether we have them yet in Australia, but I'll keep a look out as it sounds very handy. Thanks!

Great Suggestion! I've been carrying a travel tooth brush that I pre-paste, but its hard to clean and dry.

There are also some retainer wipes available that I carry in case I am where I can't rinse my aligners. I just got them and haven't tried them out yet but have them for any air trips I make and for longer bicycling rides this summer.

that sounds fab, can you geth them in th UK tho? I found a perfect wee kit in M&S for travel / keeping in my handbag, it has a tube of past, toothbrush & tooth picks and floss sticks, its great and when I forget my aligner tub to take the trays out in, the lid fits & keeps them perfectly safe in my bag till after the meal. It was only Â£5 too

Hi, im not sure about them being available in the uk....try google? Or just a check in your local drugstore they should be with all the floss etc...

they are fairly new, they are still marketed as a "hot new item" so im not sure if you guys get things later ?

Thank you. I saw an ad for these a couple of times, and couldn't remember or find what brand it was. Glad you told us. Will be sure to buy some! How much do they cost?

I also have found these to be extremely useful. In the U.S. they cost 1.99 for a four pack. I have used them in a car, an airplane, even in a kayak! They really do work and leave your teeth clean and your breath smelling good.
