It does make the bristles on my toothbrush lovely and soft ...
I can't tell you how wrong the last person was about the toughness of the brissles. You always want to use soft brushes. Anything more can cause damage and recessed gum lines.
As for the Temperature effecting bateria content... it doesn't matter. Our mouths are breading grounds of bacteria and a little more from some water will not adversely efftect you.
Long story short, soft brush and what else will make you brush on a regular bases.
ps - when the water is coming from the same source the temperature will not change anything unless its near boiling, a Cold sample will have the same stuff as a warm sample
