What it is:
A set of whimsical, fun dental accessories, to brighten up your brushing.
Why we love it:
It's hard for us to get worked up about brushing our teeth. It's just one of those automatic actions we engage in when we wake up in the morning, insuring that one of our first fully conscious thoughts is "mmm, peppermint". Our dental care, and all the accoutrements involved, are solidly neutral in our mind, neither good nor bad, just there. We suspect it's this way for most people, though certainly some (particularly small people) really hate brushing their teeth, and we presume that some people must love it. Whether proper dental hygiene is good, bad or ugly in their book, we can't imagine a person who wouldn't be cheered by this handy, happy set. There are two little surprised looking toothbrush covers (their names are Sden), one rather sleepy looking floss dispenser (his name is Otto), and one happy little toothpaste cover (his name is Rondo). While this merry bunch of guys will certainly be a hit with kids who disdain brushing, we can think of plenty of adults who might like them too. They bring a bit of charm and whimsy to an otherwise ordinary activity, and that's good enough for us.
