Both electric and regular toothbrushes have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Any of them can clean teeth well - the quality of cleaning depends more on the cleaning technique than on the type of brush used.
However, there are still cases when a certain type of brush is preferable.
When is it better to use a regular brush?
If you have very sensitive tooth enamel, your dental care should be as gentle and delicate as possible. A regular toothbrush will certainly help you with this.
It is also recommended to use it for inflammation and bleeding gums.
Braces and other structures installed in the mouth are a direct path to a manual toothbrush.
It is also worth giving up the electronic version in favor of the regular one if you have recently undergone surgery in the oral cavity. This could be tooth extraction, implantation, etc.
When to Choose an Electric Toothbrush
Experts recommend using this device if you are unable to remove all plaque when using a regular brush.
This option may be more convenient for children, people with disabilities and the elderly.
If a person suffers from diseases that make it difficult to brush their teeth (for example, arthritis, etc.), then they should take a closer look at an electric alternative to a regular toothbrush.
