JJ Care Plaque Disclosing Tablets for Teeth - 150 Count, Individually Wrapped Plaque Disclosing Tablets for Kids Brushing Teeth, Grape Flavored Plaque Remover, Dental Care for Brushing

These have the best flavor out of the 4 I've tried. They aren't as heavy on the dye as the purple ones. They will have a slight blue huey on all teeth but it comes off easily. It's great for showing kids where to brush and floss.The child pictured has slight tooth discoloration from oral iron.

my kids like to use this to see how well they are brushing. Works well, glad to find something without artificial coloring in it

they work just not a big fan

I remember using these as a kid after a particular dentist's visit. So, when I saw them available, I thought it would be fun to let my kids get a chance to try them out in an effort to improve their brushing habits.I think I know now why my parents didn't let me use them more often, because although they are effective, they are very messy. There is a very present concern that the dye in these tablets would get onto pajamas or school clothes, so definitely be aware of that ahead of time.As far as effectiveness goes, they work very well, although it's not immediately clear if they only stick to plaque as promised or if they simply stain your teeth temporarily to encourage a thorough round of brushing. Either way, they do certainly help kids realize spots that they are missing in their daily brushing routine, so for that reason alone, they're great.I appreciate that this package comes with such a high quantity, but, given the messiness involved, I can't imagine I would use these more than once every few weeks. There were no complaints about the taste, so there was no issue with getting them to join in on the fun.If you are a parent that is struggling to get your kids to brush for the appropriate amount of time, or if they are consistently missing certain spots in their teeth, these would be a great way to help them visualize the correct method of brushing. Just be aware that you'll need to be extra careful not to get the color on your clothes or towels.

Worth the price

I like the blue over the red... the red is just unnerving and creepy to look at in the mirror.

I have fond memories in second grade of chewing a tablet and smiling in a mirror. The dye was typically in the back of my mouth or the very top of my teeth. So I was excited to find these. But they don’t highlight the plague. These dye everything. Your gums, your tongue, your entire tooth. It doesn’t show where you need to improve. I think the point of these ones are more to dye everything then brush it off. The actual directions say to brush first but as an experiment I brushed with an electrical toothbrush, 2 min on just one tooth. And that tooth was still completely blue. As were the gums.

I bought these for my son who got braces this year. It's very hard to make sure you're cleaning good when you have braces. These tablets are wonderful for showing you where you need to brush better or missed some areas.
