Customer Reviews of Oral-B 060639 Crossaction 60 (6 Manual Toothbrushes), Soft #53 (mixed colors)Customer Review: wait until you see what you get for your precious money Summary: 5 Stars
[ ... ]
The 60-tuft (manual) toothbrush is for a FULL-sized mouth, not
for a growing child's mouth. The next size head down is a 40.
The texture is SOFT, not Medium texture, and you should opt
for the SOFT, rather than the Medium; the SOFT (this one) is
plently firm to do the job without mushing down and wasting
your time just going through the motions without connecting.
Looking at the bristles head-on (staring at the tips of the
tufts, with the plastic head in the rear), the arrangement
of the tufts (the pattern) is an oval. Normally I personally
do not like such an arrangement, preferring instead a solid
rectangle, so as to purchase more surface area with which to
connect to the teeth and gums. In the case of the CrossAction
(manual) toothbrush's configuration, the lack of 'corners' to
the brush is not noticeable, unlike other oval-shaped heads.
Reason for this is two-fold (am not a tech, this is personal
conjecture or observation): the outer 'rim' or border of the
brush's bristles is resilient (doesn't give easily, no mush),
AND the very tip of the brush head has a special arrangement
of slightly LONGER bristles (color: solid white, no bluish
indicator layer) that reach v-e-r-y effectively into nether
regions of the mouth (back molars?) to route out the bugs &
leftover food particles. All you need is SOFT, not Medium;
should you utilize a Medium (texture rating, not size) one,
you'd gouge your gums and whatever else is in there. You'll
get enough traction and friction and devil-exorcising action
with a SOFT CrossAction (manual) toothbrush.
Do not confuse the CrossAction with the Advantage series of
Oral-B manual toothbrushes; although the Advantage line has
a similar appearance (shape and combination of features), I
venture to tout the CrossAction as being superior in terms
of achieving results (getting one's teeth and gumline clean
in the least amount of time, with the minimum of dexterity).
In case you DO wish to order a single Advantage toothbrush
in the same order (to compare the two brushes), go to the
Search box and either type or copy/paste the Amazon ID# for
that style, which is ASIN: B0000C4KJG. Type B0000C4KJG w/o
the 'ASIN:'. That'll get you to the page which concerns the
SKU 086736 (full head, soft). At the time of this review it
takes two cents more to total 25 bucks, to avoid shipping.
The UPC/NDC (666 barcode) number is 3-00410-60639-8 for the
CrossAction 60 Soft; that's for ONE brush. Six-pack sleeves
have a similar but different number, but you don't need that
to double-check the #53 CrossAction in a retail store. When
you wish to hunt down our brush in the haphazardly sorted
retailer's toothbrush rack, home in on the reddish number
53, located at the extreme tip of the J-hook tab at the TOP
of the individual blister package. This'll save you getting
frustrated or confused when rummaging through the toothbrush
rack in search of WORDS. Find Oral-B and then find the 53...
Amazon saves you money (per individual toothbrush) compared
to what the stores charge (about 4 smackers each), but you
can get your mitts on a sample in a retail Rx before you do
order (in case you prefer to SEE and heft what you'll get
as a six-count from Amazon).
The two downsides are
- the blister packaging is not really biodegradable (tough);
- the parent company is B-I-G on animal testing (laboratory
experiments, usually redundant, on sentient rabbit eyes...).
The Oral-B CrossAction style of manual toothbrush, although
more expensive than shlock-brand models, is well worth the
monetary outlay. The squeaky-clean satifaction will SPOIL
you, and you won't settle for a manual toothbrush of lesser
quality in the future.
This brush does not include the rubber bristles along the
outer edge of similar toothbrushes: they are supposed to
massage your gums, but IMHO the regular CrossAction does
enough work on both the teeth and also the gumline to act
as a do-it-all toothbrush (no, it does not floss!).
BTW, your dentist probably never has mentioned during all
the precious moments that you have spent together THAT THE
GUMS ACT AS AN O-RING GASKET SEAL between your teeth and
the jaw-bones. Maintaining the gums (such as with a brush)
preserves the GUMS, which in turn will protect your teeth
ROOTS and jawBONES from bacteria and foreign matter. You
neglect your gums when in your prime, and you'll reap a
mess of AVOIDABLE trouble with your roots and bones later.
Perhaps you might even suggest to your dentist that s/he
be more proactive in making patients AWARE of the role of
the (silent) g-u-m-s in protecting the base of out teeth!
Parting comment: sugar rots teeth, but the bone particles
withIN refined sugar are the #1 cause of various cancers.
This according to avatar Sathya Sai Baba, who should know.
