Toothbrush

[Munni]

I am thinking of getting the sonic toothbrush.

I've used a regular medium strength bristle toothbrush all my life, and now wish to get the sonic one.

There are those ones that run on battery, and I am guessing they work better than a regular brush, but are they hygenic and do they really make a difference?

Anyone here who has used the battery powered (not sonic, but other)one as opposed to the regular one? Was there a big difference? Did your dentist comment at your next checkup? Thanks.

yes, i have used atleast three brands so far and the best one i like is from colgate..try to get those ones that are not the size of regular brush..but the circular small ones. I love those brushes. They make a great gift item when sending backhome. Everyone loves them. Make sure you change the brush frequently..lets say after 3 months. You can get the refill of brush in a set of 3 mostly.

I would say: go for it

Munni whats wrong with the normal hand operated toothbrush?

Qrius, thank you for that. I will definately do as you advised. The circular small brush it is. I agree, they make good gift items. *smile*

wakey, nothing is wrong with them. My dentist simply said that the sonic one is better than regular hand brushing. He said it would mean less frequent visits to the dentist, and better checkup results.
