this charcoal gimmick has been a real plague on hygiene products
saw a toothbrush marketed with the "feature" of charcoal on the bristles
like what is that supposed to accomplish
i suppose if you want to be goth about your oral hygiene then fine, whatever. or you could just buy a normal black toothbrush
#limon talks#its even dumber when charcoal is in toothpaste#buying an objectively shittier product since it often wont be sold with fluoride#on account of fluoride binding to the charcoal in it#making it worse at cavity prevention#its not like the reason i was browsing the toothbrush section of the aisle was particularly dignified#was looking for a toothbrush that my dentist gases up to patients#the ones that detect how much pressure you put on your gums#that shits like $30 tho :\#funnily enough i saw a similar toothbrush marketed next to it#and as far as i could tell it didnt offer anything different other than the handle#it was just. more expensive.#i'll stick to my simple electric toothbrush
