Lingito Travel Toothbrush On The Go Folding Feature Medium Bristle Brushes (3 Pack)

Product Information

First, let’s talk about bristle size. The best travel toothbrush reaches all the surfaces of your teeth. Most adults will want a toothbrush with a half-inch wide and one-inch tall head. This will be the most effective and easiest to use. The inclusion of antibacterial bristles sets this toothbrush apart. The antibacterial properties help inhibit the growth of bacteria on the bristles, promoting a cleaner brushing experience. This feature is particularly beneficial when using the toothbrush in different environments or when it needs to be stored in less hygienic conditions while traveling. Sensitive teeth? Go with the Oral-B iO Series 5. This electric toothbrush has a soft-bristle head that's gentle on the teeth and gums. It glows red when you press too hard, green when the pressure is just right, and white when you need a bit more elbow grease. We appreciate that it has multiple modes, including sensitive and extra sensitive, though you'll need to read through the instructions to know which one you've selected. We consulted Marc Schlenoff, DDS, FAGD for tips on selecting travel toothbrushes and guidance for testing them out. Next, we chose upwards of 40 models to try firsthand for an ongoing, six-month testing period. After unboxing the toothbrushes, reading through the instructions, and connecting to the apps (if applicable), we tried them out on our own teeth.

One of the standout features of this toothbrush is its folding design, which allows for easy and space-saving storage during travel. The brush can be conveniently folded into its handle, minimizing its size and making it perfect for on-the-go use. This compactness ensures that you can maintain your oral hygiene routine even while traveling, without sacrificing precious luggage space.

To return faulty items see our Returning Faulty Items policy. It doesn't stop after two minutes like it's supposed to, and the travel case doesn't have a built-in charger. With that said, it’s best to select a portable toothbrush that’s comfortable enough to hold in your hand but small enough to fit in your toiletry bag. Bristle variety

Manual and electric toothbrushes come in different bristle varieties, including soft, medium, and hard. Most people will find the soft-bristled toothbrush the safest and most comfortable to use, but this depends on how vigorously they brush their teeth.

We noted the size and feel of the handles, whether the controls were intuitive, what features were useful (or unnecessary), how the bristles felt on our teeth and gums, and how clean our teeth felt after each session. Each model was rated for ease of use, functionality, portability, quality, and overall value. We featured the highest-scoring toothbrushes here and researched additional travel-friendly options to round out our list. According to an 11-year study by the Oral Health Foundation, those who use electric toothbrushes have less tooth decay, healthier gums, and keep their teeth longer than those using manual toothbrushes. The iO Series 9 has seven modes, including daily clean, sensitive, super sensitive, intense, gum care, whitening, and tongue clean. After brushing, our teeth felt smooth as glass. It comes with a charging stand for at home and a magnetic charging case for travel. As with such a high-tech design, this toothbrush will need to be charged about once a week, whereas other models often last closer to two weeks. Still, it charges from zero to 100 percent in just three hours, and the remaining battery life is displayed right on the toothbrush, as well as on the app. The battery is one of the most important factors to consider when it comes to electric toothbrushes. Ideally, you want a toothbrush that is rechargeable and can last a week or 2 on a single charge. Battery-operated toothbrushes are not as appealing as rechargeable ones, but they are often cheaper. Antimicrobial Properties The ever-popular folding travel toothbrush is a travel enthusiast’s favorite. When assembled, the design takes up half the space of a standard-sized toothbrush without sacrificing the comfort of use when fully expanded.
