Do Electric Toothbrushes Make Teeth Sensitive? Will it damage tooth enamel?As more and more people use electric toothbrushes, there is a concern that long-term use of electric toothbrushes may cause tooth sensitivity.
First of all, we need to understand what tooth sensitivity is. Generally, it refers to the symptoms of pain and discomfort after eating hot, cold, sour and sweet food, or brushing teeth at ordinary times, or being stimulated by hard objects. Tooth sensitivity is mainly due to various dental diseases, incorrect brushing methods, excessive wear, long-term consumption of acidic substances to corrode teeth, or some trauma to the teeth, etc., the outermost enamel of the teeth is damaged and the dentin is damaged. Exposure to external stimuli can lead to various sensitive symptoms.
After understanding the causes of tooth sensitivity, we know that using an electric toothbrush will not cause tooth sensitivity to a certain extent, but the following conditions may cause tooth sensitivity:
1. Improper use of electric toothbrushes: such as electric toothbrushes with too strong vibration frequency and hard bristles may indeed lead to tooth sensitivity problems；
2. The quality of the oral cavity is relatively low, and there are many dental diseases and other problems;
3. Buy low-priced and low-quality electric toothbrushes. These products often have uneven vibration frequency and fluctuating power, which often causes tooth damage;
4. When using a toothbrush to clean, use violent cleaning, rub the teeth for too long, and frequently brush your teeth to cause damage to the enamel.
If you are worried about tooth sensitivity, what kind of electric toothbrush should you choose?
1. Choose a professional brand
Compared with brands that only do superficial efforts and vigorously advertise, the adjustment and optimization behind a truly professional brand is very time-consuming and labor-intensive. There are many adjustment dimensions involved, such as vibration frequency range, swing angle, more than 100 adjustment parameters and indicators such as power strength range. Our company specializes in the production of electric toothbrushes for 10 years. We have the experience to control the whole process from raw materials to shipping. The quality is trustworthy.
2. Prioritize the selection of products with a bristle rounding rate of not less than 80%
The bristles that have been rounded are smoother and will not sting the gums. The higher the bristle rounding rate, the more comfortable it is to use, and the less it will press the gums. The rounding rate of our company's bristles is as high as 95%. There is copper-free bristle-planting technology to take care of your oral health in an all-round way.
3. Priority to choose products with sonic vibration
Electric toothbrushes are mainly divided into rotary and sonic according to their type. The rotary type cleans the surface of the teeth better, but it is easy to damage the enamel and the noise is also greater; while the sonic type is gentler than the rotary type, less likely to damage the enamel and more suitable for sensitive teeth.
Therefore, for people with sensitive mouth, I recommend this SNK01 electric toothbrush. This electric toothbrush has three modes and three strengths that can be adjusted. It is especially suitable for people with sensitive mouth. In addition, the package is equipped with a storage box, which is very convenient to carry. It is also a good choice as a gift to relatives or friends.
