Are Electric Toothbrushes Better than Manual Ones?

Manual and electric toothbrushes have long been debated. Do you know if there is one better than the other? Our patients want to know, and Alta Loma Dental Care of Alta Loma, CA intends to lay out the facts.


When it comes to dental care, some of us want to make sure we are getting the best products. Since electric toothbrushes were invented, there has been debate about whether or not they can clean teeth better than manual toothbrushes. It turns out that it really depends on the person using it.


Generally, manual toothbrushes and electric toothbrushes do the same job cleaning teeth. However, if you are someone who has difficulty using your hands, like someone with arthritis, an electric toothbrush may be the better option. This is because electric toothbrushes do most of the work. You really just need to hold them in the right position. In addition, electric toothbrushes usually have thicker handles than manual ones; making them easier to hold. This may make it easier for certain patients to do a good job cleaning.


When it comes to dental care, there is no doubt a good home hygiene routine is essential. To learn more about healthy oral hygiene routines, contact Alta Loma Dental Care of Alta Loma, CA by calling (909) 987-6268 or by visiting our website, www.altalomadentalcare.com
