 Brytonpick

I brought these originally at Walgreens and loved them. I've been searching for them ever since. They are discreet and handy. Of course, with any mouth apparatus you need to be careful. When dislodging food gently push so you don’t risk cutting your gum. It all boils down to common sense.

 Love/Hate

I loved these little things. They are reusable and fit conveniently in my wallet for use after dinners and snacks. On the go, they are fantastic tools for keeping teeth healthy. They are slim enough to get into tight spaces, but not so versatile as to slip far into the back of the mouth for effective wisdom tooth cleaning.
I say "loved" because what I dreaded would happen eventually happened: a piece broke off in between two very close teeth near the rear of my mouth. There was about five minutes of concern until I finally unwedged the errant sliver. And for that reason, I won't use this otherwise fantastic product again.

You might as well put a razor in your mouth! I was sent a free one from CVS along with an order. My first and last experience was it was a little tight going between the teeth but after a little pressure it slid right down to the gum cutting it. Reacting from the cut I pulled it quickly out cutting my lip. These guys are bound to get sued out of business.

Giant cut :(

I thought these would be a great solution to a gap between my two furthest back upper molars where large amounts of food get stuck on a regular basis. I keep dental floss in my purse, but sometimes its just inconvenient to use floss (where do you put used floss in a car?). I put the Brytonpick in my mouth and not only was it uncomfortable but it didn't get the food out. I went to pull it out of my mouth and sliced a deep cut in my cheek/corner of my mouth. I had to hold salt water in my mouth for several minutes to get it to stop bleeding. I do have a small mouth and close together teeth, but I can't imagine giving this to a child.

This product is fantastic, it takes a few trys to get used to it but after that its quick. I keep it in my purse, so I never leave home without it! Nothing worse than a smile with celery in it!

 Poor Substitute for Floss
|

A novel idea, but this item is more like a fancy toothpick than a true flosser.
Flossing is meant to not only clean between the teeth, but also get below the gumline (where gum disease germs exist and do their damage). This product will only get between the teeth and will not remove plaque germs from the tooth beneath the gum line. If fact, it is a very delicate process of pushing the thin blade through your teeth so that you do not jam it up suddenly into your gum tissue.
Personally, I carry a vial of floss in my car and after a meal when I cannot brush, I use the floss and rinse with water. The floss I like best is Reach Dental Floss, Mint Waxed 55 yd (50.3 m) (Pack of 12). Alternatively, if you want to carry a portable flosser with you, a really good one is Reach Access Power Flosser (Colors Vary).
For a portable toothpick product there are many better than this one. I recommend Brushpicks Toothpicks by Doctors - 250 Each. These are much easier to use and are more effective than this product.
