An Affordable Gadget That Helps Ease Pain for People With Sensitive Teeth

Anyone with sensitive teeth knows how uncomfortable it can be when an ice-cold drink sends a painful shock through your mouth, or when every sip comes with a face full of ice. The SipStrainer is a simple little tool designed to keep ice in the glass, and reviewers are wondering why no one came up with it sooner.

You might be thinking, “Why not just use a straw?” But many people prefer not to, especially since frequent straw use can contribute to lip wrinkles and mouth aging from repeated pursing.

“I’ve been waiting for something like this! I hate straws, and you can’t use a lid without a straw, so I suffer with ice freezing my teeth. This takes away that pain,” one SipStrainer customer said in a review.

The SipStrainer was created by a small California business and is made from food-contact polypropylene. It clips onto the rim of most standard glasses at an angle, and when you drink from the open side, it filters the beverage while holding the ice back. Reviewers also note that you do not need to remove it every time you refill your glass.

Parents have also found it helpful for children who want to drink from a regular glass on their own.

“Especially great for my four-year-old daughter who likes to use a big girl cup like her parents,” they wrote.

More fans have shared praise for the tool’s simple idea and everyday usefulness. Take a look below, or try one yourself and avoid ice-cold tooth pain.

“I don’t usually leave reviews but….. as a professional woman, getting ice-smacked in the face at hot outdoor events is less than ideal. And a reoccurring problem.

Thank you clever genius….” —Jessica (941)
