WHICH TOOTHBRUSH IS BETTER?

Manual Vs Electrical toothbrush

One of the most common questions we hear is whether an electric or manual toothbrush works best.

The truth is that its success depends on the proper use of either.

If you have arthritis or cognitive impairment, the electric toothbrush is much easier to handle. Less physical work to your wrist and elbow joint while brushing.

Toothbrushes have rotating heads that move in opposite directions, allowing more plaque and tartar removal. No matter what your dominant hand is the electric toothbrush moves across the teeth the same way. The smaller head size of the electric toothbrush makes it easier to reach the area where food can hide.

Many patients claim once they have tried an electric toothbrush they would never go back to a manual toothbrush.

In modern days electric toothbrushes are very easy to use if you or your kids dislike brushing your teeth.

An electric toothbrush is a great option, talk to your dentist to see which toothbrush fits your needs.

There are a few downsides to using electric toothbrushes. They are more expensive and less portable than manual toothbrushes.

They require access to an electric outlet to be charged. They break easily if dropped down.

Manual toothbrushes have been around for a long time. They are still an effective tool for cleaning your teeth and preventing gingivitis.

If you’re most comfortable sticking with a manual toothbrush, continue using one if it means you’ll still brush twice per day, every day.

Accessible-You can get a manual toothbrush at almost any grocery store or pharmacy. They also don’t need to be charged to function, so you can use a manual toothbrush anywhere and at any time. Affordable-Manual toothbrushes are cost-effective. Scientific research shows that two of the most important factors in plaque removal are brushing technique and length of tooth brushing time.

Both electric and manual toothbrushes are effective at cleaning teeth if you use proper technique and brush long enough. Overall, an electric toothbrush may make brushing easier, resulting in better plaque removal.
