13 best electric toothbrushes

The first toothbrush appeared several thousand ice back among the peoples of North Africa; it was a wand that was split on one side like a broomstick. In Kievan Rus, oral hygiene was performed with oak tassels. The toothbrush in its present form appeared in 1850, and the electric model - in 1939. Today, this subject of individual hygiene exists in several basic varieties:

1. Mechanical brush with a moving head it cleans according to the same principle as a manual one, but the result is more efficient;
2. Sound equipped with a generator that creates sound waves that move the bristles and at the same time contribute to the natural removal of plaque;
3. Ultrasound generates sound waves in the range 1.6 ... 1.8 MHz, which have bactericidal properties, they actively soften tartar even in hard-to-reach places. Ultrasonic brushes are the most effective.
4. Electric brushes work from the built-in accumulator which periodically needs to be charged, or from alkaline batteries. The latest most affordable. It is also important to note the division into adult and child models that differ in the size of the head, the properties of the bristles, and of course the design.
5. SMART-technology found a place in dentistry: many models of brushes are interfaced with mobile applications and suggest what area of ​​the oral cavity you need to pay attention to.

The EXPERTOLOGY team of experts found out which brushes of the electric type were really recommended by dentists, which are preferred by users of different ages, and made their own rating, which included devices of all types.

By the way, they also have an indicator - it will tell you when it is time to change the nozzle to a new one.

The brush head pulses 40,000 times per minute and makes 8800 directional movements. This greatly improves the efficiency of manual cleaning and helps to remove more plaque. The device can be configured to work in the bleaching mode, normal or gentle cleaning. You can set the desired one both on the device and in the application connected to the brush via the Bluetooth channel.
