In recent years, there has been more and more publicity about the good effect of electric toothbrushes, and the sales of electric toothbrushes are increasing year after year. A part of the partners expressed doubts: this overwhelmingly said that electric toothbrush is good, could it be caused by the marketing promotion of electric toothbrush manufacturers? There are also some people who doubt that the brush head of electric toothbrushes looks the same as ordinary toothbrushes, can they really brush better than manual ones? Will electric ones damage teeth and gums? Today we will talk about the electric toothbrush from a professional point of view, is it really better than a manual toothbrush? A. Not many people really brush their teeth manually. The Dental Association recommends that people brush their teeth twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, and the vast majority of people do so. However, the “Pasteur method” recommended by the Dental Association is a little more complicated for the average person. According to a survey conducted by the Dental Association, only about 1/3 of adults who learn the method can stick to it for more than one week, and only a few can stick to it for a long time. Although we can brush our teeth properly according to quality and quantity, the effect of an ordinary manual toothbrush can be very good, but not many people can do it for a long time, most people brush their teeth manually very casually and hastily. Not to mention the use of pasteurization, even brush enough for 2 minutes are not many! Second, the electric toothbrush is more than “manual toothbrush enhanced version” Currently, there are two types of mainstream electric toothbrushes, one is the rotary vibration type, the other is the sonic type. 1, rotary vibration type rotary vibration type of cleaning principle is the brush head of high-speed clockwise, counterclockwise repeated rotation! Some models also incorporate high frequency back and forth oscillation of the entire brush head. Simply put, the rotary type is like an automatic car wash, the brush head around the teeth in all directions of rapid brushing, so as to achieve the cleaning effect. 2, sonic type sonic type is not actually using sound waves to clean, it is the principle of high-frequency vibration (at least 260 times per second or more), because the vibration frequency in the human ear can hear the range, so named sonic type. The cleaning principle is similar to the manual, but the brush frequency will be dozens of times more than the manual. Third, electric toothbrushes are more effective. The most important thing about brushing is to remove plaque. Plaque can erode the surface of the teeth and lead to tooth decay, and long-term attachment to the teeth can also lead to gingivitis and other problems. In this regard, electric toothbrushes have obvious advantages. 27 related studies in the past 20 years have found that after three months of use, those who brushed with electric toothbrushes had 21% less plaque and 11% less gingivitis than those who used manual toothbrushes. Concerns about electric toothbrushes harming teeth and gums have also been proven unnecessary: the standard use of electric toothbrushes is not harmful to teeth and soft tissues and is less harmful to gums than manual brushing. IV. Other advantages of electric toothbrushes In addition to cleaner cleaning, there are other advantages of electric toothbrushes. 1.Saving effort Just put the toothbrush on your teeth and move it, it’s really easy and effortless to brush your teeth! For disabled people with inflexible movements, the elderly and patients with advanced lazy cancer, electric toothbrushes are definitely the first choice. 2, enhance the experience Electric toothbrushes basically provide enhanced brushing experience design. For example, with the timing function, 100% to help people brush enough time 2 minutes. There are some high-end models and Bluetooth function, you can connect the cell phone App, the phone screen can present your 3D oral model, even if the guidance of brushing, at the same time can record brushing habits, timing reminders, to help develop good habits. If you think the electric toothbrush is too expensive and still insist on brushing manually, it is also possible. Please brush your teeth properly according to the “Pasteur Method” and stick to it for a long time, you can achieve good cleaning results! But it is still advisable to buy an electric toothbrush, no matter which way you look at it, it is worth the money you pay!
