Glad they are better. If you haven't already, consider getting an electric toothbrush. We use the oral B with soft brushes. The round head gives you more control and you'll find you will use less pressure when brushing. I used to scrub my teeth with a manual brush think harder was better but per my dentist, I was too brushing too hard. I was surprised at how effectively the electric toothbrush cleans teeth and is more gentle.
