There are a huge number of tools and devices for oral care. It is impossible to try everything at once, as the range is always changing and expanding. A standard brush can be replaced with a more expensive option that will be powered by a mains or battery and clean the surface of the teeth on its own. Attention is presented with an overview of popular sonic toothbrushes, which, according to buyers, deserve attention because of their structural features.
Content
The toothbrush can be manual, sonic or electric. It would seem that the last two concepts are one and the same, but in fact there are differences in the principle of work. What is the difference between a sound model and an electric model? In the second case, the head is powered by the device's motor, in the first case, it is powered by high-frequency vibration due to a piezoelectric plate located under the bristles of the device. But as for the battery, there are two options for both representatives of small equipment: rechargeable, battery-powered.
What is the best option to buy: sound or electric? According to dentists, sonic brushes are considered the most effective. They clean the surface of the teeth from plaque several times better, remove contaminants in hard-to-reach places and act more gently on the gums. This is because sound models make more vibrations per minute than electric ones.
Types of brushes, depending on the frequency of oscillation, are usually divided into two categories: sonic and ultrasonic.How to distinguish between two types: the first category has numerical indicators in the range of 30,000 Hz and above, the second - 1600-1700 Hz. Ultrasonic devices are more expensive than sound devices, since they do not damage the enamel and do not irritate the mucous membrane.

If possible, look at the review of the selected model, read the reviews - this will help you not to make mistakes when choosing.
If a person knows what sonic brushes are, then he pays attention to:
For example, to maintain the cleanliness of the oral cavity, one nozzle with a multi-level pile is enough. For beauty (to restore the natural whiteness of the enamel), you need to use a brush with two nozzles: standard and whitening.For family people, there are devices with a certain number of nozzles and modes, each of which has a certain rigidity. For those who often travel on business trips, an important selection criterion is the autonomy of work, the presence of a storage case, the minimum time for recharging, and it is better to use a battery-powered device (budget brushes) and the ability to use it without paste.
