Defend Premium Toothbrushes from MDSupplies & Services Review ~ Options for Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes

Since oral hygiene is so important to health, we try to include a toothbrush in every shoebox.  From the USA we can't send toothpaste, but experts say the brush is more important and works great on it's own.  We've started getting many of our hygiene items from (affiliate) MDSupplies & Service's special Shoebox Shoppers order form.     MDSupplies & Services has helpfully made us who pack for Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes a special order form of just items that can go in OCC shoeboxes...plus it has FREE SHIPPING!!!

Earlier I reviewed 3 of their more basic toothbrush options, this review is for the fancier looking Defend Premium Toothbrushes.  hey come individually wrapped in assorted colors.  This quality level of toothbrushes has three different sizes:

• Premium Toothbrushes - Adult (TB-1000) these come in a pack of 72 for $36.73 or 51 cents each
• Premium Toothbrushes - Youth (TB-2000) these come in a pack of 72 for $34 or 47 cents each
• Premium Toothbrushes - Child (TB-2500) these come in a pack of 72 for $34 or 47 cents each

These toothbrushes are nice, and colorful. Of all the ones I've tried from MDSupplies & Services, these look the most like "normal" toothbrushes, and from their price you'd feel they'd be better.  While the handles are more ergonomic, and they look nicer, I didn't really seem to find them that much different.  They seemed stiff enough, but not too stiff.  They have a nice number of bristles, but they are flat across the top like the others from MDSupplies & Services, not beveled tops like many modern toothbrushes.   But it seemed to work just fine.  I used one for around a month-some days multiple times, I'd say it was used 50 or more times, and as you can see it held up just fine to that use (& I'm tough on toothbrushes).  So, I feel like it's a sturdy toothbrush we can feel comfortable sending in our shoeboxes, knowing they're a good quality.
