Dental Plaque Disclosing Tablets for Kids & Adults - Showing Plaque by Changing Color - Helps Teach Brushing Habits for Clean Teeth - 36 Count

Works great, I brought this up to the dentist at my daughters appointment and she verified it’s exactly the same thing as the kind they recommend(they usually tell u to go to Walgreens or your drugstore) I have my daughters both brush by themselves, then I give a purple tab and they chew it and spit out, very quick mouth rinse with water, then I let them see what they missed and I go in and brush their teeth. You totally don’t have to do what I do but the reason I personally am is to see if they’re actually learning or just rushing through it like a task. Only one problem I found and it can be prevented——>DONT LEAVE SPLASHES ON SURFACES(personally I only got on marble but don’t test fate)- it comes off but leaves a little purple hue behind which for my ocd drives me nuts. I’ll update when I find a solution for the hue

Our kids didn't believe they were the problem, that they weren't brushing thoroughly enough. After using these tablets to show everyone's shortcomings in the dental hygiene department, we've had a complete turn around in behavior. Now we remind them every now and again about doing this experiment and they hustle to brush their teeth, because the flavor of these tablets is very nasty.

I love it cause now I can see how my child brushes. The only thing I dont like that it stains the skin, it white. The tooth brushes stain. It take a couple washes to get it out. Overall though the tablet does show where all the plaque hides!

I try the things I buy for a child first. In this case, I opened it to show them what this tablet is for. First of all, the take is awful by adult standards, I can't imagine a kid would do this willingly. Second, it stained my teeth, my toothbrush (for 2 days) and sink. I didn't notice any specific parts of my teeth that needed to be brushed "extra". Every single tooth was pink until I aggressively brushed. After that experience, I would not give this to my child. Throwing the whole thing away.

After a not-so-great dentist visit (hello cavities), I picked these up to prove a point. My kids were very confident they were brushing perfectly… these tablets said otherwise. First use was equal parts hilarious and horrifying. Bright purple showed up exactly where they missed. Turns out they were brushing… just not where it actually mattered. My youngest stared in the mirror and said, “That’s not my mouth,” which tells you everything. Now brushing has turned into a full-on competition. They’re trying to beat their “purple score,” and I don’t have to remind them nearly as much. Somehow, this turned into a game—and it actually works. Fair warning: your sink might look like a grape juice crime scene for a minute, but it rinses out fine. Bottom line: kids didn’t love it at first… but they can’t argue with it. And honestly, neither can I.

These Dental Plaque Disclosing Tablets are a fantastic tool for improving brushing habits! The color-changing feature makes it easy to see missed plaque, helping both kids and adults brush more effectively. My children love using them—it turns brushing into a fun and educational experience! The tablets are easy to use, taste mild, and make a noticeable difference in oral hygiene. Highly recommend for anyone looking to achieve cleaner teeth and better brushing habits! But I'm giving it 3 stars because the dye is sooo strong that it stains the sink and anywhere else. Took forever to scrub off the teeth too!

Son’s orthodontist recommended because he was slacking on brushing well with braces (8-9 yo). My son loves these! He thinks it’s funny to have purple teeth and then he brushes well! No problem with staining teeth or sink bc he brushes well and rinses spit down drain. Genius!

Turns the plaque purple. Kids brush more efficiently and now realize the importance of brushing regularly and doing it right.
