People Are Raving About This $149 Toothbrush: Here's Why

Toothbrushes aren't typically items we have to save up for, but now we kind of wonder if we're doing this whole dental hygiene thing wrong. And no, that's not just based on the fact that our dentist sternly reminds us to floss more at every visit ... 

While hand-held toothbrushes can do the trick in a pinch, the benefits of using an electric toothbrush are pretty tough to argue: Electric toothbrushes time brushings to make sure they're thorough and consistent, and apply equal pressure to both sides of the mouth. Plus, they're known to fight harder against gingivitis and gum disease because they make it easier to reach every nook and cranny in your mouth. 

We could go on, but trust us when we say that electric-toothbrush adherents are a pretty loyal lot. However, those who swear by Foreo's ISSA Hybrid Electric Toothbrush are even fiercer in their devotion. 

The tool uses soft silicone and PBT polymer bristles to wipe out plaque while staying extra gentle on gums. Plus, the toothbrush feels way more pleasant than others of its ilk: the soft, hybrid bristles deliver a little gum massage that makes brushing actually enjoyable.

What's more, this blend of bristles harbors less bacteria than other types, making the brush ultra hygienic. Oh, and you can also charge this brush using a USB — no charging dock needed! — which makes it easy to travel with.

It's rare that we feel excited to brush our teeth (we like to think our lives are more exciting than that) but this device kind of has us craving a quick bout with a burst of toothpaste. If you can relate, scroll down to find out where to pick up the product, which comes in four super chic colors.
