Are electric toothbrushes really better than manual toothbrushes?

More and more users are buying electric toothbrushes. Many people believe that electric toothbrushes are better than manual toothbrushes. After all, once the product is connected to electricity, the efficiency will be doubled. Therefore, basically no one will question the good cleaning effect of electric toothbrushes.

But for ordinary people, is an electric toothbrush really better than a manual toothbrush? Are electric toothbrushes really better than manual toothbrushes? In fact, I think this issue needs to be viewed dialectically. After all, the price of an electric toothbrush is dozens of times that of a manual toothbrush.

Electric Toothbrushes Are Better

Cleaning Efficiency: Electric Toothbrushes Are Better

The principle of an electric toothbrush is actually very simple, relying on the high-speed rotation of the motor to drive the bristles of the electric toothbrush head to vibrate, and the bristles swing at high speed to provide a more powerful cleaning effect.

The frequency of electric toothbrushes generally exceeds 30,000 times per minute, while the frequency of manual toothbrushes is only 300 times per minute, so the cleaning speed of electric toothbrushes is at least 100 times that of manual toothbrushes.

Therefore, if divided according to cleaning efficiency, the cleaning efficiency of electric toothbrushes is much higher than that of manual toothbrushes, so if you care about efficiency, electric toothbrushes are the first choice.

Experience: Varies from person to person

Regarding the experience of electric toothbrushes, I can only talk about my own feelings. The vibration of hundreds of bristles is very comfortable for an all-round high-frequency massage of the oral cavity.

Poor bristles or improper use risk wearing teeth

But I also gave electric toothbrushes to friends and relatives around me. Some people think it is very comfortable, and some people with sensitive teeth think it is very ordinary and continue to use manual toothbrushes.

So in terms of experience, I feel that electric toothbrushes surpass manual toothbrushes, but it can be seen that electric toothbrushes are not suitable for everyone.

Health function: electric toothbrush more technology protection blessing

In addition, due to the higher vibration frequency of electric toothbrushes, some high-end electric toothbrushes will also provide some scientific protection and assistance. For example, Philips' high-end products will provide pressure protection, and will prompt when the toothbrush is stronger on the teeth.

In addition, some mid-to-high-end electric toothbrushes will also add APP functions, providing some tutorials and brushing guidance, allowing users to brush their teeth more scientifically.

Who is better?

It is actually a misunderstanding that a manual toothbrush is not as clean as an electric toothbrush. A professional doctor has given the answer before. As long as you use the Pap method and brush your teeth correctly, you can actually clean your teeth regardless of whether it is electric or manual.

Electric toothbrushes are more efficient and convenient, which is the scientific reason for everyone to replace electric toothbrushes.
