Toothbrushes are something we can’t understand
You will use it in the morning and evening, the upper brush, the lower brush, the left brush and the right brush…
With the improvement of living standards, toothbrushes on the market are also diverse. In recent years, more and more people have chosen to use electric toothbrushes. They always feel that the price of electric toothbrushes is high, so the effect is definitely better than ordinary toothbrushes.
So, is this really the case? Hurry up and watch together
What is the difference between an ordinary toothbrush and an electric toothbrush?
The cleaning of an ordinary manual toothbrush is to gradually remove large food residues remaining on the surface of the teeth through repeated gentle force of the hands.
Electric toothbrushes are divided into two categories: rotary electric toothbrushes and sonic vibration electric toothbrushes.
Rotary electric toothbrushes rely on the high-speed rotating mechanical friction of the brush head to clean teeth; sonic vibration electric toothbrushes use the ultrasonic transducer in the brush head to vibrate the brush head at high frequency to loosen plaque and tartar on the tooth surface until it is cleared.
The biggest difference between an electric toothbrush and a manual toothbrush is that the former can help us clean our teeth more efficiently, cooperating with the fast-paced work and life of modern people! An excellent electric toothbrush can effectively protect the periodontal soft tissue while cleaning the teeth more efficiently.
How to choose ordinary toothbrush and electric toothbrush?
1. Before the age of 12, children are not flexible enough to master the correct method of brushing their teeth. It is recommended to use an electric toothbrush, preferably a child model.
2. For people with disabilities who can control brushing tools, or adults with inflexible hands, electric toothbrushes are recommended.
3. For busy office workers, it is recommended to use electric toothbrushes, which can save time effectively.
For those who can master the Pap brushing method, a manual toothbrush can be used. As long as the brushing method is correct and the time is sufficient, the effectiveness of electric and manual toothbrush cleaning is the same.
It should be reminded that people who suffer from severe oral diseases or are in the treatment of oral diseases are recommended to use a manual toothbrush. When the oral cavity is healthy, they must also use an electric toothbrush under the guidance of a doctor.
How to choose when buying a toothbrush?
Ordinary toothbrush:
Be sure to choose regular products. It is recommended to choose micro-core filament bristles. The tips of the bristles must be “rounded” to prevent teeth and periodontal tissues from being damaged.
The size of the brush head needs to be able to reach into the deep teeth of the mouth.
People with healthy teeth are recommended to choose bristles with normal hardness; while those with sensitive and fragile oral tissues such as children, pregnant women, and periodontitis patients, it is recommended to choose soft toothbrushes.
electric toothbrush:
1. There are multiple modes to choose from.
2. It is recommended to choose a soft brush head! Electric toothbrushes with different hardness bristles have no obvious difference in the effect of removing plaque on the tooth surface. The soft bristles have less wear on the enamel surface!
3. Sonic electric toothbrushes are more recommended among electric toothbrushes. It is best to choose a sonic toothbrush with a stable brush head!
It is worth noting that if the electric toothbrush is not used correctly, it will cause tooth wear and sensitivity for a long time, especially in the neck of the tooth! Therefore, you must use the electric toothbrush correctly according to the instructions and the dentist’s guidance.
In addition to the above, there are also teeth flushers on the market, so what is the effect of it? Let’s see…
Is the dental flusher useful?
Teeth flushing device is also called water floss. A large number of studies have shown that the combination of a toothbrush and a toothbrush can more remove plaque and reduce gum inflammation effectively.
It is especially suitable for oral hygiene maintenance of specific groups of people: periodontal disease, irregular dentition, during orthodontics, implant dentures, fixed dental restorations, and diabetics, etc.!
The cleaning function of the toothbrush cannot be replaced by toothbrushes and dental floss, and the same can not replace traditional dental floss and toothbrushes. Therefore, the three-piece set of toothbrushing: toothbrush, dental floss, and toothbrush are also essential!
In addition to cleaning the tooth surface, the high-pressure pulse water flow of the dental flushing device also has a massage effect on the gums, which can promote the blood circulation of the gums and enhance the resistance of local tissues to external stimuli.
