Toothbrush Subscriptions
Cost: $4-$5/month
Ships To: United States and Canada
Toothbrush Subscriptions, who kindly sent me this package to review, is exactly what you think it is. It’s a monthly subscription service that sends you new toothbrushes every 1,2 or 3 months. Toothbrushes start at $4 and shipping is always free.
Toothbrush Subscriptions ships from Canada and takes anywhere between 3-8 business days to arrive. Subscribers are able to select their toothbrush style (there are seven different options) and color preferences, so there is no need to include an information card in the package. I received an assortment of toothbrushes as follows:
~Economy Toothbrush ($4): This one isn’t fancy, but it gets the job done. It comes in five colors and I am going to replace whatever B has in his travel bag with this. I am guessing it doesn’t get replaced a ton and I never even think about it, so this was a great reminder (which is exactly what it’s suppose to be).
~American Dental Association Approved Advantage Toothbrush ($5): This is one of only 30 toothbrushes approved by the American Dental Association. I was JUST thinking I needed to replace my toothbrush and then this showed up in the mail. The timing could not have been more perfect.
~The Baby Toothbrush ($4): I think L would freak out if I gave him a pink toothbrush, so this is going to be for WB. L probably really wants a pink toothbrush but seems to think it’s just “for girls” which is so not true. I am working on assuring him that this is NOT the case, but I don’t think he buys what I’m selling! This is meant for kids ages 2-5 and its custom built grip helps your child build proper brushing principles early. And since WB insists on brushing his own teeth (it’s a battle to get it from him), this will be great for him.
~Dental Floss ($3/each): I am awful about flossing, but I am really liking their idea of committing to flossing one tooth at a time after brushing. I am usually half asleep when I even consider flossing, but I think I could handle that.
What do you think of Toothbrush Subscriptions? I wouldn’t really consider them to be “value” subscription because of course you could run to the drugstore and grab a toothbrush every month for a few dollars or whatever. But are you? Do you remember to change them as often as you should? I know I don’t! That might make a good survey question – how often do you change your toothbrush?

toothbrushes should be changed every 3 months and arnt they like 3$ for a gd brand in the store cindy rdh
How much are they?

in the store. i am a hygienist.
I guess I am confused? I said you could go to the store and grab a toothbrush for a few dollars?
no i get them free in the mail, at a convention and from my employer, but in the store dont they run 2-3 dollars each for a quality brand. im confused as to why your confused. sorry
I actually had this on my list a few months ago to subscribe to…apparently they MAJORLY raised the prices. It was $1 for an economy toothbrush (shipped), $3 for the luxury toothbrush (shipped), $4 or $5 for the ADA approved toothbrush. In fact, their mission statement at the time was to be able to provide a low cost toothbrush (“where else on the internet/in a store can you get a toothbrush shipped to you for $1”). I will definitely not be subscribing now…what a disappointment.
I do recall that! I couldn’t remember the other prices, but I wondered what happened to the $1 option!
I reviewed them and they raised the prices right after my review was published (after March 13th). The economy toothbrush is now $5.00, the same price as the luxury. I don’t understand why someone would pay $5.00 for the economy, when they can get the luxury for the same price. I emailed the company to find out about the price increase, but I haven’t heard back.
Report back when you hear! I was looking at the pricing and was a little confused on that as well. I’d of course get the luxury for the same price so it doesn’t make sense.
I think this is actually a really smart subscription idea! You’re definitely right about it not being a “value” deal, but the convenience of having someone else remember to replace your toiletries for you is totally worthwhile. I have all the best intentions to replace my toothbrush every couple of months, but I always end up forgetting how long I’ve actually had it, and leave buying a new one for the next shopping trip… and the next…
Same! I always forget!
Do the toothbrushes come in a package like you would buy in a store? It seems a little un-hygienic if they just come loose in an envelope, but maybe I’m weird!
They comes in sealed packages.
