So, you’re looking for an electric toothbrush. With so many options, it can be tough to know which is the best electric toothbrush to meet your needs.
At Philips Sonicare, we like to think of ourselves as somewhat expert. We’ve been making them for around 25 years so let us impart some wisdom to help you find the best electric toothbrush for you.
Getting started...
When it comes to good oral hygiene, electric toothbrushes usually focus on three things: plaque removal, gum health and whitening. So a good starting point when making your choice is figuring out which area you want to focus on – and we help you on this below.
Once you have decided this, we’ll guide you on how to choose the best Philips Sonicare toothbrush for you, whatever your budget.
Tip: Don’t want to compromise on any area of your oral health? The good news is you don’t have to. We now have a toothbrush that does the works. Take me straight there.
I want your best electric toothbrush… for plaque removal
Why is plaque removal important?
We probably don’t need to tell you, but plaque is oral health enemy number one. During the day it builds up on and between your teeth. It leads to tartar, cavities and gum disease so you need to remove it daily to keep your teeth healthy.
You should focus on plaque removal if you notice:
- Plaque build-up along your gum line
- A rough feeling on your teeth
- Your dental professional sees signs of cavities
When it comes to battling plaque, Philips Sonicare electric toothbrushes are a game changer. Our brushes deliver 31,000 brush strokes a minute, giving you a month’s worth of manual brush strokes in two minutes.
Powerful sonic movements whip up toothpaste into microbubbles, driving them deep between teeth and along the gum line for gentle, effective cleaning.
