I love that I stumbled across a youtube channel full of toothbrush reviews. Which makes me weird, but hey, it makes oral health less confusing..........sort of. Subbed.
I literally just went downstairs to get my electric toothbrush that came in the mail.. I’m watching this cuz.. I wanna make sure. I’m about ready to brush my teeth!!
i started using this week.. it is bit pricey over manual toothbrush but i can say brushing teeth is now more fun than never. i spent 2 3 min tops brushing my teeth with electric but with manual, i only spent only 30 second. more time spent brushing teeth more clean.
They say if you brush your teeth too much that you can wear your teeth down more quickly. My question is, do electric toothbrushes wear your teeth quicker overtime due to the increased brushing over the tooth surface? They remove more plaque yes, but do they wear your teeth quicker in the process??
Like someone said in the comments, i also have the Fairwill toothbrush which only vibrates but it does not spin like the one from the video, is this still as good as a spinning one?
They are comparable. There evidence sides slightly with the round brush heads. But Fairywill toothbrushes work in the same was as Sonicare toothbrushes. They have a sonic cleaning actions, which is still when used correctly very good.
Tried the oscillating Oral-B brush but it started to cause notches on my teeth within 6 months. The indicator never went off once to say that I was brushing too hard and you have to push it against your teeth rather hard to even get it to light up and slow down. Far too powerful either way I find.
Try using the sensitive heads and the sensitive mode if your toothbrush has one. Further, the toothpaste should not be a whitening one since they are abrasive, I would suggest Sensodyne's pronamel daily protection (not the gentle whitening one)
Fiest time tried an electric toothbrush (Oral-b pro 750) . Downsides : The feeling is not so pleasant. The vibration of the brush sends the toothpaste flying in all directions , so you're forced to cover somehow, but then I don't see exactly where on the treth is it cleaning. 2. Difficult to control Pluses: 1.I'm not working so much, not at all in fact , comparing to a manual one. 2. Plaque is removed more efficiently I like manual brush, but I need to upgrade my skills with it and do it correctly.
Oral b works better than Sonicare. Due to the fact that Oral b round brushes adapt to the teeth better than sonicare. The only thing you gotta do with an Oral b is to hold it over a tooth surface. Outer Surface: Hold the toothbrush over the tooth point towards the gum line for that tooth ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c_Akc3x8BnQ.html Chewing Surface: Hold the toothbrush over a tooth ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c_Akc3x8BnQ.html&t=97 Inner Surface: Hold the toothbrush over a tooth and point to the gum line of that tooth. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c_Akc3x8BnQ.html
You can get inexpensive electric toothbrushes now. The Spinbrush is a good choice, for instance, if you are on a tight budget. Oral B also makes a several good battery powered toothbrushes, one can even use the heads that are used on larger models.
I have a electric toothbrush but a regular one works better for me because I can get to the bottom part of my teeth better and it's harder with electric I also have braces
@@ElectricTeeth If a user has braces they can use the Oral b ortho brush head, which is specially design for cleaning around braces. 1.1Oral b ortho brush head: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L60lAqd9M2E.html 1.2 Oral b ortho brush head: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yYabCSiykjM.html 2.

I wish someone would come up with teeny tiny silicone or rubber squeegee like teeth cleaners . I find that toothbrushes don’t actually remove plaque , it just moves it around on the teeth . I often have to use my fingernail to scrape it off my teeth but that’s too hard to do for each tooth .
Interesting. Toothbrushes are proven to remove plaque and from what I have seen more effectively than silicone bristled brushes. You are basically wanting a small sponge style thing to wipe over the teeth?
9 months late, but if I may comment, I know what you mean. The thing is, the thing you are removing with nails may not necessarily be plaque. Remember that saliva has lots of proteins and these give some viscosity to it, coating the teeth. Also, there will always be some loose aggregation of bacteria around. The problem is when these aggregations slowly deposits on the teeth. Brushes breaks these 'bacterial organizations' and helps the saliva and mouth movements wash them away later.
@@ElectricTeeth yes , that’s what I mean . It seems brushes pick up SOME plaque but not nearly enough. I use the Burst brush and I still see gunk left on my teeth afterwards.
@@fernosan whether it’s plaque or not , my point is that it seems it’s impossible to remove just by brushing. Flossing seems to help the in between and sides of teeth but still a lot of stuff left over afterwards. Very frustrating .
You would have to apply a lot of pressure for them to stop entirely. They will normally slow down if pressure is applied and then speed up again if the pressure is relieved.
Does it apply for the D7 Fairywill toothbrush? I feel like this specific model just vibrates and makes my teeth sensitive, and I am the one doing the work while other brands you just hold it on each tooth to be clean out.
Yes assuming the toothbrush is performing as it should then the same principle applies. Is this a new brush to you? Were you using a different brand of toothbrush before?
No. You can brush morning and night. It doesn't need to be a set time apart. Of course the more time between each session the greater the benefit. Brushing at 11am and then at 6pm is still better than nothing for example, but you will get more benefit (in theory) if you brush at 8am and then at 8pm for example.
A regular manual toothbrush, be that bamboo or plastic are effective, if used correctly. An electric toothbrush will remove more plaque than any manual, due to the increased and consistent movements. In some instances and electric toothbrush is a much better product for someone. However, the majority of us can have equally healthy teeth with a manual brush. Advice is to generally opt for a soft bristled toothbrush as this is more gentle on the teeth and gums.
Electric Teeth ok thanks. I'll have a look at soft bristled bamboo brushes. With the electric toothbrush, how do the interchangeable heads work? E.g do you brush with precision clean for a while and then switch to crossaction or do you switch them daily or weekly? How does it work?
You can pick the brush head you like and use it daily. Just replace it after approximately 3 months. You don't have to switch brush head styles. You can if you want, but definitely not something you have to do.
Electric Teeth ok, so just use the desired head for 3 months. And then you could change the heads if you want to. Ok, thanks. And using an electric toothbrush shouldn't cause gum damage or recession, even if you already have recession? Which brush head is best to use if you have existing gum recession?
Correct ref brush heads. No, there is no reason for an electric toothbrush to cause or make worse any gum recession, providing it is used correctly. I.E Don't brush the teeth with lots of force. Use the correct brushing technique. We generally recommend the Sensitve or Seni UltraThin brush head as the bristles are really soft. Of course if your dentist gives any personalised advice it is best to take this. It doesn't hurt on your next appointment to make sure they are happy with your at home oral care routine and the brushing technique etc you are using.
Regular brushing with a manual toothbrush and then flossing too will still remove plaque. Electric brushes just tend to remove more and do so more efficiently.
@@108wee Teeth never stop moving and when they’re crooked they create more areas for plaque accumulation. Someone with a channel showcasing toothbrushes should at least get someone with nice teeth to show their mouth if theirs are crooked.
Yes, we are a business. But, we are not selling any toothbrushes. We recommend the cheap/affordable models, not the premium ones (most of the time). We will be the first to tell you a manual brush is more than good enough, if you use it correctly. Feel free to have a read of our ethics policy. www.electricteeth.com/about-us/#ethics
@@ElectricTeeth thanks man last questions, you know that little spring on the side of the brush, i saw someone saying that the springs actually gave the fella an electric shock/nips his mouth. is that possible?
I have never hear of such ever happening. These products go through strict testing and would soon be pulled off sale and likely large lawsuits if anything like that ever happened.
Both have their place. Interdental brushes are best. Floss is much more technique sensitive and harder to get right. Water flossers are a great alternative option if you really don't get on with the interdental brushes or floss.
I can't say I have ever noticed this to be something myself. Also not heard of it being a thing, but it is possible. Probably something to do with the amount of brush head motion and reaction to the way we brush?!
🤔 Yes, we do have a preference for electric. This is because the data/studies confirm their better. However, we will be the first to tell you that a manual brush is perfectly satisfactory. Although you do need to use the correct brushing technique, brush for the right amount of time and twice a day, which not all that many do.
They say if you brush your teeth too much that you can wear your teeth down more quickly. My question is, do electric toothbrushes wear your teeth quicker overtime due to the increased brushing over the tooth surface? They remove more plaque yes, but do they wear your teeth quicker in the process??
