May 26, 201114 yr It seems to quote Watsons or Boots that its impossible in Thailand to buy a hard toothbrush. The nearest you can get is Medium or Medium soft whatever that is. Any one know different??
May 26, 201114 yr I order my toothbrushes - Curaden, a Swiss brand - from Australia. They are the best toothbrushes made. I discovered them when I lived in Europe and a Dental Hygienist supplied them to me . They last a good 6-8 months. You can select how soft or hard you like. Curaden http://www.curaden.com.au/
May 26, 201114 yr Yes, I buy mine from the USA. If you just like hard though, some of the cheapo Big C toothbrushes are hard as nails.
May 26, 201114 yr Yup, I've looked all over for a hard toothbrush and finally decided I just had to go with what the dentists recommend in all countries where I've seen a dentist -- a good soft toothbrush that is replaced monthly. I do cheat and get a medium toothbrush, but I find that if I replace them monthly they work just fine.
May 27, 201114 yr The downsides of hard, apart from enamel abrasion if you're doing it wrong, is that the bristles down't bend as much and get into the nooks 'n crannies. Can also make a mess of gums. Also, having a brush that lasts 6 months is probably not such a good thing.
May 27, 201114 yr A hard toothbrush is not good for your gums and over time will do more damage than help...I would suggest anyone reading this only use soft toothbrush

May 31, 201114 yr Author Thanks to everyone for the info on hard toothbrushes - will aim to use the old one only for scrubbing the outside floors!! Coming from a family of Dentist Hard is not always Better
