You can achieve perfect oral hygiene with either electric or manual toothbrushes, provided they are suitable for the child’s age, and used properly.
Electric toothbrushes have the added advantage of being more fun to use (timer, music, etc.) but younger children may be put off by the vibrations.
Softer toothbrushes ensure that the process is easy and not too aggressive on the child’s fragile gums.
In fact it is the brushing technique and duration that makes the difference and not the type of toothbrush. This is why at DentistKids, our paediatric dentists use cuddly toys with big smiles that make learning to brush their teeth much more fun for kids…
