Colgate Motion

I am embarrassed about my teeth most of the time. They aren't crooked by any means - just not as white as I would want them to be. I've been brushing a bit more than normal to try and help out with that but it just hasn't been making a difference.

I was due for a new toothbrush soon and we needed a second tube of toothpaste (Aquafresh Extreme Clean) so we headed in that direction at W-mart.

We picked up the toothpaste and I looked at the brushes... of the electric nature. Christopher has been toying with the idea to get one and so have I - so I went for it. I think I had an electric brush when I was really young, haven't had one ever since. We splurged a whole $4.97 to get me one. It comes with 2 AAA batteries already. I think it's a pretty good deal considering some of the higher end traditional brushes can run you a good 3 or 4 dollars.

I've used it twice so far, and I like the feeling it's left in my mouth. It's not quite dentist-clean, but it is a very nice feeling - better than traditional brushing. It did a good job on the gums and between my teeth. Flossing didn't pull much up after I used the Colgate Motion for less time than I do with a traditional toothbrush. Good sign!!

I'll keep tabs on how well the Colgate Motion is doing with my teeth/gums and update at some point in the future.
