Q: Can kids use it with braces or other dental work?
A: Yes. The soft, flexible U-shaped head is gentle around brackets, wires, crowns, and veneers. For tight spots, keep using floss or interdental brushes as your dentist recommends.
Q: Can we use our regular toothpaste?
A: Absolutely. Apply a small, even layer across the mouthpiece (pea-sized for young kids) and you’re good to go.
Q: Do you offer a warranty?
A: Yes - every SmileBaltic Kids Brush comes with a lifetime warranty for peace of mind.
Q: How often should we replace the mouthpiece?
A: Swap the silicone head every 3–4 months (or sooner if worn), just like a standard brush head.
Q: Is the silicone safe for sensitive gums?
A: Yes. The bristles are ultra-soft, food-grade, and designed to be gentle on developing teeth and tender gums.
Q: Will this make my child “lazy” about brushing?
A: No. It makes brushing easier and more consistent, helping kids build independence and solid daily habits. Parents should still supervise younger children.
Q: Is it suitable for children with sensory sensitivities or special needs?
A: Many caregivers tell us the all-around, short brushing cycle helps reduce resistance and makes routines calmer. Every child is different—follow your care team’s guidance.
Q: Which size should I choose?
A:
- Small: ages 3–5
- Medium: ages 6–8
- Large: ages 9–12
Pick the size that matches your child’s age/fit for the best comfort and coverage.
Q: Is the brush water-resistant and easy to clean?
A: Yes. It’s built for everyday bathroom use—rinse the head under running water and wipe the handle dry. (Avoid long submersion.)
Q: How long does the battery last?
A: A single charge typically powers 2–4 weeks of use, depending on mode and frequency.
Q: What modes does it have?
A: Three kid-friendly modes: Gentle (for sensitive gums), Daily Clean (everyday brushing), and Massage/Play (a pulsing pattern kids love).
Q: How long is a brushing session?
A: A full-mouth clean takes about 30 seconds per cycle. You can run a second cycle if your dentist suggests extra time.
Q: Any care tips?
A: Rinse after each use, let the head air-dry, and store the brush upright. Replace the head if you see tears or deformation.
Note: Always follow your child’s dentist’s advice for brushing technique, fluoride use, and interdental cleaning.
