Questions & Answers
I believe the size is appropriate for an 8-year-old.
I'm afraid I don't think you'll be able to use Oral B replacement heads. I'm aware that the toothbrush comes with one head already attached and another in the tray. You can also purchase additional replacement heads for this brand on Amazon.
I bought it for my four-year-old son, but it's a little too big for him and difficult to maneuver because he's still developing dexterity. However, I believe that an 8-year-old would benefit from the style and size (I have a seven-year-old, so sizing isn't an issue for me).
For $7, you can get two replacement heads. On Amazon, the book costs 99 cents. The dinosaur toothbrush set was the only character that didn't have replacement heads. If you have Prime, you can get them all in a matter of days.

While brushing his teeth, the head of our son's electric toothbrush fell off. He began to choke and had to push on his tummy and gag until the choking stopped. I purchased two of these and am trembling with fear.
This toothbrush is a hit with my 5-year-old son. I'm a big fan of the idea as well. When my son first used it, however, he accidentally twisted the brush head, revealing the metal piece that rotates the brush inside. It appears to be extremely dangerous and could result in a major accident. As a result, rather than him brushing his teeth on his own, I keep a close eye on him.
Prosbr>I like the concept. My child was captivated by the toothbrush's appearance. My child enjoyed using a "buzz" tooth brush, just like his parents. Brushing was made easier with the help of the sand timer. br>br>Consbr>The toothbrush was a little loud at first, and it took some getting used to. Unlike adult name-brand toothbrushes, the brush head is not water-tight. Mold had built up on the inside of the brush head and the brush body in a relatively short period of time. The same thing happened even after I cleaned the brush and replaced the head. This is not something I would advise you to do.
For $20, this is such a cute item. This toothbrush is a hit with my 4-year-old son. He also likes that the chart allows him to keep track of his daily brushings; however, I recommend putting the chart in a document protector so that I can use it with a dry erase marker more than once. There is no need for so many copies to be printed. Aside from that, this is a fantastic purchase!.
We used reusable stickers to frame the charts. Brushing my children's teeth is now a pleasurable experience, and they are motivated. There will be no more debates.
The giraffe cover was an afterthought in terms of product design. Because the head doesn't snap on tightly, stuff accumulates inside (disgusting) and at the attachment's base, according to one reviewer. Continue your search. The only thing that's good about it is the little hourglass that helps with timing.
It's a big hit with him. The toothbrush timer is great for making sure we spend enough time brushing his teeth and also for ending tooth brushing time if he gets too silly or carried away. We had issues with it not working after a few months, so we called customer service and spoke with a live person - THERE IS NO PHONE TREE! Hannah was extremely accommodating, and the customer service was among the best I've ever encountered. They confirmed that the problem appears to be a one-time occurrence, but that they would forward the information to the appropriate team for investigation and that a replacement would be sent out. It was an amazing adventure. If the same problem occurred with a major brand, you could try calling, but you won't be able to reach a live person, and if you do, they are too big to care about your single toothbrush problem. I'd give Brusheez ten stars if I could just for their customer service and product support. When you add in the fact that the tooth brush is adorable and makes my little one want to brush his teeth, 5 stars isn't nearly enough! br>If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, try.
I hadn't noticed it in the reviews until we received the package, and it's right there on the box. Of course, you must register the product, but I believe that this is an important selling point. I was hesitant to spend $20 on an electric toothbrush at first, but the positive feedback from children who were excited to use it persuaded me otherwise. Then there was the added benefit of the warranty, which made the purchase even better. I would suggest it. Vibrations and rotations are generated by the brush! We simply assist the children because we want it to be effective; the cup is convenient for small hands, and the timer is also beneficial.
