Which Electric Toothbrushes do Dentists Recommend?
Anyone struggling to keep a regular routine will benefit from an electric brush simply because it makes all your cleaning a little easier, but it’s worth noting that dentists don’t really care what kind of brush you’re using, so long as you use it properly. The American Dental Association (ADA) reckons you can use either, so long as you’re brushing twice a day for two minutes with fluoride toothpaste.
Dr Raj Juneja, cosmetic dentist at Face Teeth Smile Dental Clinics, says he particularly recommends electric toothbrushes for people who struggle with technique using a manual brush. “The rotating or oscillating motions of many electric brushes provide consistent cleaning that can reduce the risk of gum disease and cavities,” he explains.
