In today’s world, we find ourselves choosing between a plethora of various traditional and electric toothbrushes, so you may be asking yourself which product is best for you?
The Electric vs. Traditional Toothbrush Debate
Electric and traditional toothbrushes are both great as long as they are used properly. There is no research that shows electric toothbrushes are better than manual ones; it really comes down to the technique and the person using the toothbrush.
The movement that you get with an electric toothbrush is mimicking what you should be doing with your manual toothbrush. A lot of the time, we’re not getting all the right spots or doing the right motions with a regular toothbrush. Electric toothbrushes are better for people who have difficulty brushing their teeth properly.
Replacing The Brittles On Your Toothbrush
For your electric toothbrush heads, as well as manual toothbrushes, you want to make sure you are replacing them every 3-4 months. You also want to ensure you’re replacing them whenever you recover from being sick. If you’re sick, all that bacteria is just sitting in your toothbrush. You want to get rid of that so you can start off fresh and healthy!
