Electric vs manual brushes

·

Both work. An electric brush makes good technique easier, which is why we often suggest one.

The best brush is the one you use well, twice a day. That said, electric brushes have a real advantage for most people.

Why electric helps

The head does the small movements for you, and most have a two-minute timer and a pressure warning. That fixes the two most common mistakes.

When manual is fine

If your gums are healthy and your check-ups are uneventful, keep doing what you are doing. Use a soft brush and change it every three months.
