An Ion iToothbrush is a toothbrush that cleans your teeth and gums without toothpaste! The Ion iToothbrush releases a very gentle flow of ions - a gentle electric current - in your mouth. These ions sterilize mouth bacteria, strengthen the gums, and stop plaque sticking to your teeth.
How do I use it?
Like any normal manual toothbrush. Gentle, circular strokes are best.
Can I still use toothpaste?
Yes, of course. The Ion iToothbrush effect will still work. Saliva or water is sufficient to release the flow of ions, so it’s not necessary to use toothpaste. If you find you can’t do without, try using less! You can also use salt or bicarbonate of soda.
What can I expect to happen?
Most people notice changes in their mouth, immediately and over time. For example, a reduction in bad breath. Gums starting to bleed, then healing. This cycle may repeat itself. Nearly everyone not using toothpaste sees discolouration as they spit into the sink - this scale is what would otherwise end up stuck to the teeth as plaque.
What does it feel like?
Some people feel a tingling or a gentle buzz. Others say that their teeth no longer feel slimy. Nearly everyone feels a really clean mouth for quite some time - up to 24 hours - afterwards! The “squeaky clean” effect!

Natalie, Lismore, age 17: It’s easier to brush your teeth for a longer time. The head’s small so it’s easier to reach the back. And my teeth feel cleaner! I like not using toothpaste. I think they’re good value! �
Dentist, Mullumbimby: My mouth feels really clean, especially where my tongue goes, at the back of my front teeth. I still use a tiny bit of toothpaste - it’s been a long time habit! But I expect to use less and less. I think the iTOOTHBRUSH is excellent: I’m recommending it to my patients. I had a patient in the other day for a clean and check up. She’s been using the iToothbrush, without toothpaste, for two months. She had none of the hard scale I would normally be scraping off her teeth, her gums had stopped receding, and the only (tea) stains on her teeth were on the composite fillings! And she hadn’t had her teeth cleaned for 11 months, when usually she comes in every 6 months! Remarkable! Everybody should have at least one iToothbrush! �
