Review (4/5): Helps remove debris stuck between teeth, and deal with tartar/plaque
[[VIDEOID:cbac90e8387083ce10f04b521f9fab97]] These stainless steel dental picks are well-made. The ridged areas of the picks help give me a secure grip.
Before I use any of the picks, I sterilize them as follows:
a) I boil water, then place the picks in them for 10+ minutes.
b) Then, I lay them on a clean plate to cool.
c) Once the picks have cooled enough for me to handle, I choose a pick to take care of my teeth/gums.
I use the dental pick with the sharp hook at the end to remove stubborn food debris stuck between my teeth that my toothpick cannot remove.
I use the dental pick with an end that reminds me of a chisel to pick away at the plaque/tartar.
The dental mirror gives me a good view of the inside of my mouth, so I know what parts need to be worked on.
I breathed on the mirror, and it did not fog up. The light is bright.
note: the product description page makes no mention of what to do if the light doesn't work. There was no user guide included with this kit when I opened the package containing these picks and mirror.
Overall, I find this oral care kit to be useful in helping me take care of my gums and teeth at home in between the times I see my dentist.
