Do you use an electric toothbrush?
Question:
Answers:
Yes. I get a nice buzz.
I like to use both coz when you use one or the other and you haven't for a while, your mouth feels a lot cleaner
You mean "BOB"? LOL. wink wink nod nod
Manual,,I just like it better,,you can get loads of pressure from the manual one
Electric cleans your teeth better but on a full charge they are more powerful and can make your gums bleed and the vibration make your nose itch!
Yes - I prefer it because it brushes my teeth more thoroughly as I can keep it on a tooth at a time.
Yes, my dentist recommended it.
No but I would if they were designed better.I hate those little heads on them..I can never seem to clean my teeth properly like I can with the ordinary ones...
I have done but then you had the bother of keeping it clean etc just went back to a ordinary one.
it gets my teeth loads cleaner and gets in all the hard to reach bits
yes theyre really gd, they vary in proce so much though. if you dont want to spend a lot do what i did and make sure its got changable heads to change the brissles once in a while
hope this helps
I'm not that lazy whats wrong with brush/ paste/ and elbow grease
I tried an electric toothbrush but the way it made my eyes vibrate and water was just too much! I prefer a manual one, I think it does a better job.
manual i just like it better and i just feel like i have cleaner teeth using a manual not a electric.
i prefer manual tooth brushing.it is what i am used to.
Yes. It's no miracle but I think it cleans better. It's also less boring, in it buzz after 3 minutes so you tend to wait for the buzz and clean your teeth longer, so better
i use a manual one. less expensive, and i'm good at brushing.
I use a Sonicare and I love it! My teeth have never felt better while using it. I once did a report in school on which toothbrush works better and there was no significant difference as long as you are brushing properly with your manual toothbrush. You may be able to brush harder with a manual toothbrush, but it is just as effective in removing plaque and a lot less abrasive to use a soft toothbrush with soft, circular strokes. But I definitely prefer electric because they do all the work for you!
I use both! My normal one for "everyday use" and the eletric, every now and then! they are both as good as easch other!
Although I do use both manual and electric I feel that the electric toothbrush is superior. I use and would recommend the Oral B Triumph. As a dental hygienist I have had both and still feel that the Oral B is a better choice. I also find that my patients tend to do better with the Oral B because it has a smaller brush head so you focus on just a few teeth at a time. I also had a patient that still had a ton of stain with the Sonicare and (unless he was grossly lying) his method of use was good and often. I spoke with their representative at a dental convention and they couldn't give me a good explanation. Lastly my Oral B is always reliable and long lasting, I end up getting a new model prior to it failing. One note though, charge it up fully and then put your charger base away since leaving it on the charger all of the time will waste the battery sooner. In addition I use the Flexi soft head which can be a bit softer than some of the others they offer. You are probaby looking at about $100.00. If this is too much try one of the Professional Series which have less bells and whistles but are effective (see this link for comparisons http://www.oralbprofessional.com/us/prod...
Good luck!

PS. Usually once my patients give these a try they tell me that they are amazed how good their teeth feel!
no, so idk
I have a Phillips Sonicare brush and I find the difference amazing. From the first use my teeth looked whiter and felt like they'd been cleaned by the dentist. Expensive but worth every penny.
no but i used 2
no i never brush my teeth hah just kidding i just think any toothbrush gets the job dont so i just have a regular tooth brush
I've used one for years, basically it makes the teeth feel and look cleaner.
manual toothbrush, the electric 1s r 2 expensive

it's so much easier and it really does clean your teeth better, i can't use a manual one any more as it now rips my gums!
