Introducing the 360 Toothbrush
A New Toothbrush All the Way Around!
Baby Buddy introduces The 360 Toothbrush – a first-of-its-kind, revolutionary toothbrush design that will forever change the way children’s teeth are brushed – because it’s round!
The innovative, round design of The 360 Toothbrush was developed to lead children on the path of healthy oral care – starting at 4 months old, all the way into the pre-teen years! The 360 Toothbrush offers a better and more efficient approach to children’s oral care with these stand-out features:

Circular bristle rings are made with a patented technology to keep them in place and spacing washers between the bristle layers make it more effective to remove plaque and keep the brush clean. More than 10,000 micro-fine bristles effectively remove plaque on the teeth and gums.

Our Thoughts
I like the innovative design of The 360 Toothbrush and wanted to give it a shot for my 5yr old son. Baby Buddy sent me the Step 2 to review.
My son has motor apraxia, so I'm still brushing his teeth for him, and expect to do so for quite some time yet. It's easy enough to get the top/bottom of his teeth, but the sides are difficult with a traditional-shaped toothbrush. He already has one adult tooth, and I worry about being able to keep his teeth in good shape. Haha, if he has my teeth, he'll be lucky, but if he has his father's teeth . . . well, we'll try to keep them in as good of shape as we can for as long as we can.
Now along with apraxia issues (speech too) he is on the Autism spectrum, which means simple changes can sometimes be difficult. The last time I introduced a new toothbrush, it didn't go over well! But when I showed him this cool new round toothbrush and how much fun it would be to brush his teeth, he took to it right away - thankfully, because *I* really like The 360 Toothbrush! It was easier to brush the sides of his teeth, and he didn't fight me as much - he even giggled while I brushed his teeth!
I tried it both with and without toothpaste - while it took some extra effort to rinse the toothpaste out of the toothbrush afterward, it was easier to brush his teeth with it rather than without - the bristles glided along his teeth better.
When his hands eventually learn to assist him brush his own teeth (motor apraxia is wanting to, but not being able to repeat purposeful movements) The 360 Toothbrush will be much easier for him to clean all the surfaces of his teeth because it involves less wrist action. I have to say I'm glad this toothbrush design exists and we will continue to use it!
