Wondering if that hi-tech power toothbrush on display at your dentist’s office or in the commercials that hit us every day is really more superior to the manual tooth brush? And what about the power tooth brushes that operate on the AA batteries? Where do they stand?
The answer is not a simple one and like anything else, each have their own pros and cons.
The electric tooth brushes do have some some powerful features that make them an attractive choice like they come with an in built timer and the moving bristles are more effective in removing plaque.The downside is that they can get expensive and the ongoing cost of replacing heads can pile up in the long run. So ,you want to make sure you know what you are getting into.
Regularly replaced manual brushes will be more effective than worn out electric heads. Manual brushes are tried and tested , and do their job just right, if the correct technique is used for a sufficient amount of time. You have to do all the job. Some people fall into bad habits of simply swabbing their teeth .
So, which tooth brush is best for you? The one which you will use effectively and frequently. Also remember, no matter which tooth brush you choose to use, daily flossing and dental visits for teeth cleaning are absolutely necessary for good oral health.
