Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought a set of these ultra soft Nimbus Microfine toothbrushes last year after my mother developed a rare disease: Acquired Hemophilia. All of a sudden, she started to bleed internally for no apparent reason. She was in the hospital for two months, and while brushing her teeth with a soft brush, she had a very dangerous internal bleeding that caused her chin to her neck to become purple (this was just one of several other large bleedings). Fortunately, she had an excellent doctor and hospital, and was able to recover completely. I visited her early on (she lives in Brazil), and when I returned to the US, I searched for the softest toothbrushes. I ordered and tried many brushes, and the Nimbus was the best one I found. I quickly sent my mom a set of the Nimbus brushes, and she was very happy with them, and did not have any problems with her gum and mouth. She used them daily while she recovered. However, sometime after she went back home, she told me that she had stopped using the Nimbus brushes because she felt they were too soft for her. Since she has been fine for over a year now, she went back to the previous brand of soft brushes that she used before (I don't know the brand). When I first bought the Nimbus brushes for my mom, I kept a couple for me and started to use one, since I have had problems with receding gums for years. I like this brush very much; I find that it keeps my teeth clean and haven't had problems with my gums since. When I started to use this brush, I brought it to my dentist. He thought it was too soft and that it would not clean my teeth well, but the dental hygienist says that my teeth are clean and there has been no increase in plaque on my teeth. I find that these brushes are strong, well built, and last long. In fact, I'm sharing photos of the brush I have used for 14 months! The bristles got a little shorter but still work; the other brush I keep in my travel bag, and have used for about a month over 14 months. I know should have changed the brush earlier, but I wanted to see how long it would last; it still works fine. To me it seems that it has lasted much longer than other name brand brushes that I used before. I am now finally ordering another set of Nimbus. I highly recommend this product (and no, I did not get any discount to write this review).
