What is The Best Kind of Toothbrush to Use?

After speaking with many dentists graduating from different schools and living in different areas, they all recommend using an electronic toothbrush. An electronic tooth brush is completely different than using a hand-held one because of the effectiveness of the brushing. As an electric toothbrush goes about 10x faster than using a non-electric, it becomes more clear how this is so.

Investing in an electronic toothbrush has become cheaper than ever…7 or so years ago you had to cough up over $100 to get one of those bad boys. Now, you can find $40-50 options that still get the job done at grocery stores in your area. This leaves minimum excuses for not investing in one.  It’s about time you saved up a little money for the betterment of your oral health. We all want fresh-smelling breath and pearly white teeth, don’t we? This is simply a sign of cleanliness and the last thing we want is the people we are interacting with to have to smell bad breath and think of us as a dirty human being. Professionally, this is just as important. We are less-likely to do business with people that have bad breath because we simply don’t want to be around them, whether it be subconsciously or not.

When you get your teeth cleaned at the dentist, they use different machine-like tools to get everything as clean as possible. This can be compared to an electronic toothbrush in the sense that they are relying on it to perform the job the exact same every time and with the same amount of effectiveness. Now imagine your dentist using a manual toothbrush! They couldn’t possibly get every spot in your mouth as clean and as quickly now would they. This is just one example, but consider the act that every time you’re using an electronic toothbrush you are almost doing what the dentist does.
