Learn how to use the Smile Pedestal with your Cocobrush to improve your brushing routine and keep your oral care tools clean and accessible.

Quick answer

Place your Cocobrush on the Smile Pedestal to keep it clean and within easy reach, then follow a consistent brushing technique to improve your daily oral care routine.

Why the Smile Pedestal improves your brushing routine

The Smile Pedestal is more than a stand — it keeps your Cocobrush high and dry, away from bathroom countertops where bacteria can collect. By storing your brush properly, you reduce the risk of contamination and extend the life of the bristles.

A clean, accessible brush also makes it easier to maintain a consistent brushing habit. When your Cocobrush is always ready and visible, you're more likely to brush thoroughly twice a day.

What to know before you start

The Smile Pedestal is made of ultra-durable, frosted borosilicate glass — lightweight but sturdy. It fits both the Cocobrush and the Smile Filter tongue cleaner, so you can use it for multiple tools if you have them.

Make sure your Cocobrush is clean and dry before placing it on the pedestal. This prevents moisture from building up inside the stand and keeps your brush fresh for the next use.

How to use the Smile Pedestal with your Cocobrush

Step 1: Place the pedestal in a convenient spot: Set the Smile Pedestal on a dry, flat surface near your sink but away from the water splash zone. The frosted glass is lightweight, so ensure it's stable. Check that the pedestal isn't near a dripping faucet or soap dispenser to avoid water spots.
Step 2: Insert your Cocobrush after brushing: After brushing, rinse your Cocobrush thoroughly and shake off excess water. Gently place the handle into the pedestal's opening, bristles facing upward. Don't force the brush — the opening is designed for a snug fit. If it doesn't slide in easily, check the orientation.
Step 3: Let the brush air-dry completely: Leave the Cocobrush on the pedestal until it's fully dry before the next use. The elevated design allows air to circulate around the bristles, preventing mold or mildew. If you notice moisture after several hours, wipe the pedestal interior with a dry cloth and let it air out.
Step 4: Brush with proper technique: When you pick up your Cocobrush from the pedestal, use a gentle circular motion at a 45-degree angle to the gumline. Brush for two minutes, covering all surfaces of each tooth. Common mistake: brushing too hard or using a back-and-forth sawing motion. Let the bristles do the work.
Step 5: Clean the pedestal weekly: Wipe the Smile Pedestal with a damp cloth and mild soap once a week. Rinse and dry thoroughly before placing your brush back on it. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads — they can scratch the frosted glass surface.
