3 Reason You Should Go Electric--Toothbrush That Is!

Yet so many people continue to use a manual toothbrush. While a manual toothbrush can certainly get the job done, there are a few reasons to consider going electric.

1. The round-motion sweep of an electric toothbrush head is much more effective for cleaning your teeth and sweeping plaque or bacteria away. It's nearly impossible to recreate this quick, precise motion exactly with a manual brush.
2. More so, this specific rotation is better at protecting your gum line from inflammation, meaning less recession and healthy, longer lasting teeth and gums.
3. Lastly, manual toothbrushes don't include a timer. Electric toothbrushes will continue moving in your mouth for two minutes every time you use them, making sure you brush for the proper amount of time. Your teeth will certainly thank you!
