Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

FOREO ISSA MINI 3 is my latest FOREO toothbrush, and it is oh so good! Don't let the fact that this is a "mini" cause you to question its efficacy– it is a very effective sonic toothbrush that thoroughly cleans teeth, gums, tongue and cheeks. I have found that using a sonic toothbrush is a proactive step in my daily oral health, and for me sonic toothbrushes do a better job of cleaning teeth and gums than standard manual toothbrushes. I prefer using a sonic to a standard electric toothbrush because the sonic pulses boast tremendous efficacy.

I have used a wide variety of electric toothbrushes over the years, and I find the FOREO ISSA MINI 3 Sonic Toothbrush to be more effective and pleasurable to use than other brands I have tried. I love the innovative modern design, the ergonomic handle for comfortable use and the combination of gentle silicone bristles that surround the inner core of PBT polymer bristles.

FOREO ISSA 3 Sonic Toothbrush (full size), shown above, is on the left to compare the size difference, and you can see that the mini isn't too small.

According to FOREO,

ISSA mini 3 is the healthiest way to brush - cleaning teeth, gums, cheeks, and tongue. Featuring a combination of ultra-soft, medical-grade silicone bristles to gently massage gums and sturdier PBT polymer bristles to break down plaque. It keeps teeth strong & healthy while protecting gums & tooth enamel from over-brushing.

Powered by patented Sonic Pulse technology, it lasts up to a whopping 265 days on one USB charge to save you time, energy, and the hassle of constant charging.

The silicone bristles gently clean gums while the combination of silicone bristles and PBT polymer bristles do a very effective job cleaning my teeth. As I have said before, I really like for my teeth to feel ultra clean, and for me the inner core of PBT polymer bristles provide the requisite degree of tension against the teeth to remove food particles, stains and plaque. On the back of the brush, there are raised ridges specifically designed to clean the tongue, and they do so efficiently given their shape coupled with the sonic vibrations.

I use this toothbrush twice a day, and it is gentle on my sensitive teeth, gums and tongue, but without sacrificing efficacy. Furthermore, it cleans without stripping, and it does leaves my mouth feeling refreshed.
