Setting your teeth on edge

Sir, – We are constantly reminded by dental experts to use a soft brush when brushing our teeth.

Yet most shops sell mostly medium or hard bristle brushes with, in the main, no soft brushes available to buy on the shelves. These toothbrushes are made by leading dental supply companies. Where have all the soft brushes gone? – Yours, etc,
