Toothbrush Elmex Junior 6–12 years, green — soft-head manual toothbrush for children

Elmex Junior 6–12 years, green is a manual toothbrush designed for children in the school-age range. It has a compact brush head and soft bristles shaped to clean young permanent teeth and mixed dentition gently but effectively. The toothbrush is intended for daily oral hygiene to support cavity prevention and maintain healthy gum margins while accommodating smaller mouths and developing brushing skills.

Advantages

The compact head and short neck provide better access to back teeth in a child’s mouth, while the soft filaments reduce the risk of damaging enamel or irritating gingival tissues. The ergonomic handle is sized for smaller hands, offering a secure grip that helps children and caregivers control brushing movements. The bristle layout is optimized to remove plaque from tooth surfaces and along the gum line without aggressive abrasion.

Suitable for

• Children aged approximately 6 to 12 years with mixed dentition or newly erupted permanent teeth
• Daily oral hygiene routines at home or at school
• Children transitioning from baby/toddler toothbrushes to adult-size brushes

Key specifications

• Brush head: compact design for smaller mouths and posterior access
• Bristle firmness: soft filaments suitable for young permanent teeth and sensitive gums
• Handle: ergonomic, sized for children’s hands for improved control
• Intended use: manual daily toothbrush for mechanical plaque removal and gum-line cleaning

How to use

Apply a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste appropriate for the child’s age. Hold the Elmex Junior toothbrush at a slight angle to the gum line and use gentle circular or short back-and-forth motions to clean all tooth surfaces: outer, inner and chewing surfaces. Spend about two minutes brushing and encourage reaching the back molars and along the gum margins. Rinse the brush and store it upright to air-dry between uses. Replace the toothbrush when bristles show visible wear or approximately every three months.

Usage recommendations

Supervise brushing for younger children to ensure correct technique and adequate brushing time. Combine daily brushing with regular dental check-ups and a fluoride toothpaste suited to the child’s age for effective cavity prevention.
