Teeth are an integral part of our body. They are like
diamonds and we shine them every morning. Some shine them twice a day also. For
some, especially children, brushing is a hectic job, they just want to get up
and have their delicious breakfast. And some people take long time to brush
till they find it white, which is kind of harmful to the teeth. Not taking
proper care of teeth can lead to severe pain and even replacing the damaged tooth.
As an answer to the laziness of some individuals and also for
proper maintenance of your teeth, there is a product developed by a French
company FasTeesh. This product is the Y-brush.
Bass method
It is an electronic brush which automatically brushes and
cleans your teeth. The brush uses the Bass method for brushing which has proven
to be the most effective way to remove plaque or bio film between the gums and
the teeth. In this method the bristles of the brush at kept at a 45* angle to
the line where the gums meet the teeth. Then the brush is stroked slowly and
patiently which does the work.
How to use the Y-brush?
- The usage of Y-brush is real simple. You can add your daily
toothpaste. You will be given an applicator along with Y-brush so that the
toothpaste is applied properly over the brush reaching all parts. Seeing the
size of the toothbrush, you may require more toothpaste than your normal usage
which is kind of a ‘-‘point of this brush.
- Then place the brush in to your mouth, first in the upper
part. The handle of the brush has 3 vibration modes which can be set according
to your sensitivity. Different for different age groups. You just need to buy
one handler for the whole family and different Y-brushes or you can buy
according to your needs.
- Turn the button on and chew for 5 seconds and then remove the brush and place it in the lower end and repeat the same procedure and after 5 seconds, remove it and you are done.
- After the usage light rinse the brush with water as usual.
This is the time saving brush that every family needs. The brush
comes in 4 sizes, 2 adult, 1 child and 1 intermediate size. With Y brush, you
will give 5 seconds to each tooth which is 4 times more than what you give with
a normal brush or an electric brush, according to FasTeesh.
Nylon bristles work better than silicon’s
The Y-brush bristles are not made of the usual silicon but
are nylon bristles which are soft bristles and dentist recommended also. They are
the best for removing plaques and debris between your teeth along the gums. It is
very much comfortable for any mouth size. Nylon bristles along with sonic
vibration produced by the handler cleans your teeth perfectly.
The handler part
The Y-brush can be used for almost 6 months with 2 uses per
day, after that you need to replace the brush. The handler is charged through the
process of induction/wireless and takes almost 8 hrs for a full charge which
lasts up to a month. You can keep you brush in a provided dock when not in use.
At last the cost!
The Y-brush comes in various packages for you to buy
according to your family needs and now comes in green colour. A single Y-brush
which consists of a Y shaped brush and a handler costs 109 euro and the
additional brush costs 20 euro which you need to change every 6 month according
to the usage.
The Y-brush is best suitable for persons with disability and
aged people who are not able to take care for themselves. Spending 8800 Rs on a
tooth brush is too much even for an upper middle class family, but if you
really need it, go or it.
You can buy them at kickstarter.
