PRE-TEENS aged between eight and 12 years old often face discomfort when they brush their teeth as most toothbrushes are either too small or too big for them, with hard bristles that can cause bleeding gum as well as plaque build-up on teeth.

These can cause brushing to be a daunting task and dreaded by them even though they are going through an important phase as they are starting to grow out their permanent teeth.
