When it comes to getting kids excited about brushing and flossing, one size definitely doesn’t fit all. At RADIUS, we believe oral care should be as unique and joyful as your child’s personality. Whether your little one is a quiet daydreamer, an energetic adventurer, or a creative thinker, choosing the right toothbrush and toothpaste combo can turn brushing from a chore into a cherished daily ritual.
Here’s how to match RADIUS oral care products to different personality types—and make smiles part of their story.
1. The Curious Explorer
If your child is always asking “why,” pulling apart toys to see how they work, and constantly exploring, they’ll thrive with oral care tools that inspire curiosity and independence.

Making Oral Care a Personal Journey
Matching your child’s toothbrush and toothpaste to their personality isn’t just about fun. It encourages positive associations and builds habits that can last a lifetime. At RADIUS, we design our kids' oral care products with safety, sustainability, and smiles in mind.
