Our dental team recommends using an electric toothbrush to achieve and maintain optimum oral health. Because an electric toothbrush is so much more effective and efficient than a manual toothbrush, you will notice a difference with just a few uses. An electric toothbrush provides 30,000 strokes per minute versus 200 strokes per minute for a manual toothbrush. Electric toothbrushes are beneficial for patients young and old. Because of the timer and pressure indicator patients who suffer from sensitivity, recession, arthritis, and dexterity issues, as well as patients with orthodontia will benefit from use.
The proper electric toothbrush depends on your personal needs and preferences. At Hughes & Hughes Family Dentistry we continually research and evaluate new toothbrushes on the market. We have chosen a few that we recommend. All the listed electric toothbrushes can be purchased in our office. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or if you would like to demo any of the brushes we recommend.
