Product Information

You'll also want an electric toothbrush with a brush head that's easily replaceable, and with affordable replacements. And, you'll want one with decent battery life, especially if you plan to bring it with you on trips. Along with the electric toothbrush, this is my favorite feature of the Multishape. Too often, beard trimmers are not designed for guys with long beards. We’ve tested the best beard trimmers from Wahl, Panasonic, Philips-Norelco and others, and many popular trimmers feature attachments that only work with short facial hair. It's not a true smart brush like the above Oral-B, as it has no sensor to detect mouth position, but it will flash if you put too much pressure on your gums and has both regular and sensitive modes. For thirty dollars, or the equivalent? It's excellent. Intrinsic stains within the teeth, by contrast, are down to age or genetics. Dentists can perform tooth-whitening procedures on intrinsic stains. Using an electric toothbrush will not remove intrinsic stains, but will reduce the likelihood of adding extrinsic stains.”

There are two different kinds of motion in most modern electric toothbrushes; sonic and oscillating.

When you travel a lot, there’s nothing more annoying than forgetting your toothbrush because you left it charging in a hotel somewhere. But good news – instead of needing cables, this smart gadget charges inside its travel case. The brush comes with a travel case and AAA batteries. its biggest downside is the need to replace batteries, along with brush heads, every few months, which isn't particularly eco-friendly nor cost-effective in the long run. However, each replacement will last at least three months, as the brush isn't particularly power-hungry.If you're looking to travel frequently and want a spare toothbrush, or you're looking for an affordable way to start smart-cleaning, this is the brush for you. For instance, some come with travel cases, or attractive chargers — there are toothbrushes that can be charged through a drinking glass for instance. Others have multiple functions, such as a water flosser attached to the base, or a built in UV cleaner. Then there’s smart connectivity to consider as well. With this, you can connect your electric toothbrush to your phone, letting you monitor and improve your brushing method.

Simply switching to an electric toothbrush cannot guarantee healthy teeth, of course. A good toothpaste, brushing technique, brushing at the right time and flossing are all crucial too. But an electric toothbrush is certainly a good start. When choosing an electric toothbrush, the most important factor to consider is its effectiveness at removing plaque. The difference is sometimes small, but the brush heads' design, the motor's power, and the type of movement (oscillating or sonic vibration) can all have an effect. The most powerful or fastest vibrating/oscillating brush isn't necessarily the best, though, particularly for people with sensitive gums. If that's you, for a brush with a 'gentle' mode, which will dial down the intensity. The SPY team has tested hundreds of grooming products in 2022, and we recently named the Panasonic Multishape the best grooming product of the year in the SPY Best of 2022 Awards. Included accessories: 1 handle with 2 minutes timer, 1 charger, 3 brush heads, 1 premium travel case Brushing your teeth at least twice daily is the foundation for maintaining proper oral health. The American Dental Association (ADA) endorses the use of both a manual and an electric toothbrush to keep those pearly whites healthy, but research has shown that an electric toothbrush can be more effective at removing oral plaque and food particles.Choosing a new electric toothbrush and ditching the manual? The Oral-B iO series is a great buy if money's no object, but the best value options are often squarely in the middle of the range, such as Oral-B's Genius X AI brush, which tends to run a little cheaper. Most of the best electric toothbrushes have a number of common features. For starters, they have a two-minute timer with 30-second intervals, which lets you know you're brushing your teeth for the ADA-approved amount of time.
