Electric toothbrushes vs manual brushing
The research is clear that it’s much more efficient and effective to use an electric toothbrush compared to a manual one.
The amount of plaque and bacteria people leave on their teeth after brushing is usually much less with an electric toothbrush.
Cleaning around the gums and therefore the overall gum health is also a lot better with an electric toothbrush.
