Suction Toothbrush

Description

The Avanos (Ballard) Oral Care Suction Toothbrush is a suction‑enabled toothbrush designed to support safe, thorough oral hygiene during assisted care. Soft bristles provide gentle cleaning of teeth and gums while an integrated suction channel removes saliva, fluids, and debris as brushing occurs. This helps reduce the risk of aspiration and infection by clearing secretions from the oral cavity. Packaged as a box of 25 toothbrushes, it is suitable for routine daily care across hospital, aged care, and home healthcare settings, including post‑operative recovery.
