FAQs

Do Y brushes work? ›

The y brush has been an absolute lifesaver for me. It works perfectly, much better than the silicon options. Not a good invention for oral hygiene.

Adding a fancy new sonic or ultrasonic toothbrush to your daily dental care toolbox is certainly a good way to keep your teeth cleaner and your mouth healthier, but it's not a substitute for regular visits to your dentist for a professional checkup and cleaning.

However sonic brushes do have one major drawback; they tend to be quite expensive compared to both manual and electric versions making them cost-prohibitive for some users with tighter budgets who still want a quality brush for cleaning their teeth thoroughly each day!

It's important to use a sonic toothbrush properly. You don't need to actually brush your teeth, as the toothbrush does all the work for you. All you need is to guide the toothbrush along your teeth one quadrant at a time.

Nylon brushes possess a great range of flexibility, so when a tangle in the hair is present, the bristles will give, allowing the brush to slide over the tangle. On the other hand, since nylon brushes are made from plastic, they tend to get soft and can even melt where there's too much heat from a hairdryer.

Sonicare's heads are large and flat compared to Oral-B's small round brushes, and they're long-lasting, according to Wellspring Dental dentist Mandy Nebel, who prefers Sonicare over other brands. This specific model — one of two from the brand accepted by the ADA — is a more entry-level Sonicare.

These sonic waves contribute a lot to making sure that plaque cells, which are unreachable by the bristle, are broken up. Additionally, the sonic toothbrushes are a great tool for those with sensitive gums or tend to brush overly hard. Since the machine does most of the work, your job would only be to direct it.

Unlike sonic ones, the ultrasonic toothbrush does not depend on the sweeping action of the bristles. Instead, it operates using ultrasonic waves produced through a very high vibration frequency rate of at least 20,000 Hz. It's capable of producing about 2,400,00 movements every minute.

Do dentists recommend Oral-B or Sonicare? Oral-B and Philips's Sonicare are two of the most widely recommended toothbrush brands by dentists, but there's no industry consensus on which electric toothbrush is best.

If you are looking for an easy-to-use option with a wide range of features, an electric toothbrush may be the best choice for you. If you are looking for a more intense cleaning experience and a wider range of brush head options, a sonic toothbrush may be the better option.

What is so special about sonic toothbrush? ›

Efficiency. Oscillating-rotating toothbrushes do a great job mixing water, saliva, and toothpaste to act as a cleaning agent. Sonic electric toothbrushes are made efficient by transmitting the vibrations through that mixture. It allows for removing plaque and cleaning hard-to-reach areas of the mouth.

It is recommended to replace your Philips Sonicare Brush Head every three months of normal use (brushing twice a day) or when the blue indicator bristles wear out. One reason is that brush heads can get weary and will be less effective in removing plaque.

“Love Tangle tee*zer. [It's the] best brush ever. It just glides right through your tangles with ease,” said a reviewer. Another reviewer adds, “Overall this is a great brush that detangles my curly, coarse hair very quickly and I can now brush out my hair in 2 minutes.”

Is the Mouthpiece Toothbrush Effective? The study suggests the reason for the mouthpiece brush's ineffectiveness is because its bristles aren't long enough to reach the mouth's surfaces adequately.

Our hair was significantly smoother, straighter, and less frizzy than when using a regular blow dryer. Our method was using the blow dryer mode to get it 80 percent dry, then adding the brush attachment to do the last 20 percent and style it.

Modified Bass technique was reported to be the most effective brushing technique followed by Horizontal Scrub technique, while the least effective was Fones (3).
