The training brush has a longer handle which allows the parent to brush WITH the child to teach the child how to gently clean their teeth. Once the parent feels the child has learned the proper way, the Baby Brush is then introduced to allow for independent brushing. This brush removes plaque and bacteria.

The red bristles are to help parents (and children) to see just how much toothpaste is safe for brushing.
