which is better a electric toothbrush or manual and which toothbrush is the best?

Question

and does it matter what toothpaste u use

Answer 1

Give me my Braun electric toothbrush any day! Never any problem, change the brush head every 3 months or so and a fantastic clean! Best thing sliced bread for me!

Answer 2

Electric - I've found the Sonicare to be the best around!!! I work for a dentist and we sell these! Everyone loves them!!! You wouldn't believe the difference an electric toothbrush makes. The type of toothpaste doesn't really matter - it's whatever you prefer, although there has been new findings that toothpaste can cause more problems than help you. But it's hard to NOT use it. Some suggest to brush and then rinse with mouthwash...

Answer 3

From my experience and per my dentist, an electric toothbrush is better. I have been using electric toothbrushes for the past couple of years, and I would never go back to a manual toothbrush. I love the crest electric toothbrushes with the two moving heads. They can get farther in the back than a manual toothbrush and with the moving heads, can more more food out of your gums and in between your teeth. My mouth feels a lot more fresh with the electric toothbrush.

Answer 4

While electric toothbrushes are considered better, the fact is electric toothbrushes are designed for people who do not have the speed and dexterity to clean their teeth on their own.
If you often miss vital areas, do not maintain the proper speed and pressure that is necessary to clean your teeth on your own then an electric toothbrush may be necessary.
Of course, even electric toothbrushes, as foolproof as they are, can be used incorrectly. Speak to your dentist about proper brushing technique. Unfortunately even many dentist do not know and will, by default, refer you to an electric toothbrush. Of all the current toothbrushes I would say Sonicare is the best.
One important factor which someone else has already made a brief reference is that toothpaste itself may cause problems. A good way to help avoid toothpaste damaging your teeth is to rinse VERY well after brushing. This is a vital and often overlooked detail in proper brushing technique.

Answer 5

the means toothbrush I definitely have has a charger and it does 3 hundred revolutions in line with minute. it could take me 10 minutes to brush that properly via a instruction manual one. look at the assessment on line--kind in toothbrush assessment electric powered instruction manual. I have been given a learn that recommends oscillating electric powered is extra suited than instruction manual in combating gingivitis and plaque.

Answer 6

I had a bad bout of receding gums (mostly on the left side since I brush right-handed) and my dentist told me to switch to an electric toothbrush. It has helped a lot and It's far better.

Answer 7

well its not about which toothbrush you use its more about the proper way and how frequent and efficiently you brush! both the brushes are equally good untill you use them the correct way ! yes toothpaste does matter as there are various toothpastes available which have different contents like you should use one with appropriate amount of flouride content and of appropriate abrasiveness! If suffering from certain diesease than particular medicated one !

Answer 8

the mail did a review about a moth ago, they tested manual and electric and said tesco's own manual for 79p was the best and so was their toothpaste as reviewed by a dentist! but i guess as long as you brush twice daily it doesnt matter much:)

Answer 9

My dentist told me today that electric ones are better and if she doesn't use hers she feels like her teeth aren't clean!

Answer 10

electric removes plaque and leaves teeth shiney and smooth
sensodyne desensitises teeth leaving them feeling clean and closing any microscopic holes that are devloping that might cause sensitivity
