  • It’s relatively new (for consumers I mean) from what I see, but it’s the same technology some dentists use for teeth cleaning. Works pretty well, but like I said, it doesn’t go under the gums (the thing stops vibrating when it contacts the gums, for safety), so you need an actual dentist or dentist kit to do that, which is why dentists probably don’t want to recommend it; they don’t want people to think that this is all you need and get issues. They are right, but if you are smart, it’s a good thing to use to supplement teeth care between visits and saves you money, because you don’t have to go to the dentist as often (granted, you still need to brush your teeth, I don’t want anyone reading this thinking you don’t have to lol).

    Edit: If anyone is going to use this, use a tissue to wipe the tartare on it as you clean each tooth and for the love of hygiene, clean the metal tips with soap after you’re done with your cleaning session!!!


  • It uses ultrasonic waves to melt the tartare off your teeth and is safe to use. It’s not strong enough to melt enamel, only to melt tartare (even hard plaque melts with some patience). Just follow instructions or watch a YT video explaining how to use it. It’s really not hard. People also use these for pets, as pets are notorious for not being able to stand still very long, but they still need dental care. Just check on Amazon, there’s plenty with thousands of reviews. I got mine on Amazon a year ago or so.

    Ok, to everyone here actually struggling with teeth care, buy yourself a 50$ or less ultrasonic tartare remover on Amazon or something and thank me later. That thing removed 4 years of tartare from my teeth and now my teeth are clean. If you want to do below the gums, buy a regular dental kit and watch a bunch of tutorials on YT by professionals. It’s not as hard as they make it out to be, just take your time and go easy on yourself. Go see a dentist when you feel like your cleaning wasn’t enough or if you have an emergency, it’ll save you money (and teeth health) to take better care of them at home in the long run.




  • I was using whatever pens I could get before I found the JP pens. Now when I see one, I have to get it. The writing feels as though it glides like a brush over the paper.

    Besides that, not sure why people say they explode on them, mine are indestructable. I write and draw with a very heavy hand and they stay rock solid. Pretty good pick for heavy handed people.
