GUM Stimulator Refills - 3 Rubber Tips Included - Compatible with The GUM Stimulator Permanent Handle - Massager for Gums, Plaque Removal and Gum Health, 3 Count(Pack of 6)

Good replacement at a decent price.

These seem to be more or less just like the ones that originally came on all my previous combination GUM-handle/rubber-tip stimulators, but I would swear that these replacement tips are a bit softer. New tips usually are a little tougher on my gums at first, since I tend to use the previous ones too long, and the tip narrows (my problem). This new one felt almost no differently than the really old one I was replacing (strange). I was also worried about installation as I remember how difficult it can be, from long past attempts. I have seen other's comments on this as well and decided to try the old microwave warm-up/loosen-up trick. After setting the new tip in the middle of the microwave's revolving glass tray I set the timer at only 5 seconds, and ran it at full power, but didn't really notice and difference in tip temperature or pliability. Ran it this way a couple of times with no change, then attempted a run of 10 seconds, but still virtually no change. Then I ran it for 15 seconds straight. This just very slightly warmed the tip up, but I attempted to install it at that point anyway and it went on pretty easily. More easily than I would have expected to be honest, even making sure to push it against the handle's backstop quite firmly. It appeared to be on the handle as far as it could go, as a slight bulge was created against the back end of the tip, as the previous factory installed one had as well. I was still very cautious, however, the first few times I used it as I also remember what it is like for one of these new tips to come off while pressing firmly on them (ouch!). So far the new tip has worked well, but as I mentioned earlier I expected my gums to be a little bit more sore at first until they adjusted to the new tip, but that didn't really happen. I guess the old tip was either doing a better job than I thought, or maybe these are now slightly softer than they used to be. Hope the other tips go on as easily when it is time to replace this one. FYI: not all microwaves are created equal, so if anyone else tries this method I take no responsibility for any issues that might arise (lol). Just be careful and good luck. Oh, and don't put the handle part in the microwave, period. Microwaves don't like metal! Shouldn't need to be said, but QAnon members and very small children might not have a clue about it.

This tool is awesome. I use it when stuck in traffic, towel or whatever on thigh. At home, practicing how to get to spots i couldn’t while driving.

Good fit, but looses its strength fast and then it bends

They fit my Jurassic era handle. Good for making sure everything is out of crevices when one is "long in the tooth".

Exactly what I needed and wanted to help stimulate gum improvement. I received the shipment in a timely manner that I appreciated.

The use of these teeth gum stimulators are recommended by my dentist. These gum stimulators are excellent to work with on a daily basis!

not easy to get a refill to stay put. but with practice you can get a decent result. thankfully you have a couple of spare refills to practice on.

Me ha gustado mucho. Ya tenía el soporte y solo necesitaba los repuestos. Gum siempre es una garantía. Envío perfecto.

The second time ordered and still only 1x3 arrived instead of 6x3 as described. Very disappointing for this price.

Již léta používám stimulátor k masáži dásní a čištění mezizubních prostor. Z českých e-shopů tento produkt GUM zmizel, a tak jsem byl mile překvapen, že jsem jej na Amazonu mohl zakoupit.

This is my most used dental tool. The tips last a long time. Reduces gum bleed by firming up the tissue.

I really like these refills as I use a gum stimulator daily and at 74 years old I think my teeth are in very good condition.
