Electric toothbrushes are very popular now, but as a digital review blogger, I sincerely remind everyone to choose electric toothbrushes carefully, and don't blindly follow the trend of Internet celebrities, because most of their products are OEM made, which looks okay on the surface, but the real experience is very bad. So how should you choose an electric toothbrush?In order to help you buy an electric toothbrush that suits you, today I will share with you how to buy an electric toothbrush based on my own experience and professional knowledge in electric toothbrush evaluation, let's take a look.
The picture above is an electric toothbrush I have purchased.
1. How to choose an electric toothbrush?To summarize eight practical tips
How to choose an electric toothbrush?In the face of the vast number of electric toothbrush brands on the market, if you don't choose carefully, you are likely to buy an inferior and unprofessional electric toothbrush. To this end, I have summarized eight practical electric toothbrush purchase tips, full of dry goods, everyone will understand how to choose a high-quality electric toothbrush after reading.
Trick 1: It is better to sweep the vibration angle between 3-9 degrees
If the sweeping angle is too large, the electric toothbrush is easy to irritate the gums and teeth when brushing, causing tooth problems, but the product with a sweeping angle is too small It is not recommended for you to choose, and the cleaning power of the electric toothbrush is easy to be pulled down.
Tip 2: Buy an electric toothbrush with strong professional and technical strength
Professional brands will carry out fine compatibility matching according to the oral environment of Chinese people, and constantly optimize and improve more than 100 core parameters of electric toothbrushes, such as uniform stability of vibration frequency, sweeping amplitude, and power intensity range, and the tooth injury rate is more than 3 times lower than that of unprofessional Internet celebrities
Tip 3: Choose three types of electric toothbrushes
Electric toothbrushes can be divided into three categories: rotary, sweeping and vibration integrated according to the different working principles, and sonic typeThe sweeping angle is too large and even exceeds 60 degrees (the dentist recommends that the sweeping range should not exceed 9 degrees)., which will over-damage the teeth and gums during cleaning, this cleaning strength is only suitable for European and American people with very high oral tolerance. Compared with the other two, the sonic electric toothbrush has a lower tooth damage rate when brushing, has excellent cleaning power and tooth protection, and is more suitable for the oral environment of Chinese people, and is also the most recommended type of electric toothbrush for dentists.
Tip 4: Don't choose violent cleaning products
In order to attract consumers, some businesses over-pile up the vibration frequency and sweeping angle of the electric toothbrush, but do not pay attention to adjusting and balancing the various parameters of the electric toothbrush, misleading customers to think that the vibration frequency parameter is about high or the larger the sweeping angle, the better the cleaning powerYou should still choose products with a vibration frequency between 25,000-40,000.
Tip 5: Use an electric toothbrush with good compatibility
The oral environment of Chinese people is complex and changeable, so it is best to choose a high-compatibility product with a wide range of power strength, rich brush head types and a large number of gears, such as a power strength range, which must reach a certain width to provide users with more suitable oral cleaning strength.
Tip 6: Pay attention to the quality of the brush head
Factors such as bristle hardness, wrapping, hair planting rate, and brush head size will all affect the quality of the brush head. Here I will take the roundness of the bristles as an example, Chinese people need to choose an electric toothbrush with a roundness of more than 80%, the higher the better, if the roundness of the toothbrush you use is low, it is easy to wear out the teeth.
Trick 7: Give priority to the magnetic levitation motor
As the core component of electric toothbrushes, there are generally two types, namely magnetic levitation motors and coreless motors, high-quality electric toothbrushes are generally equipped with magnetic levitation motors, which have a scientific and precise internal structure, strong performance, stable vibration frequency, low noise and longer service life. However, coreless motors often have problems such as unstable vibration frequency and force attenuation, poor brushing experience, and high risk of tooth injury, so it is not recommended for everyone to choose!
Trick 8, buy a brand with after-sales service in place
It is recommended that you choose a brand that supports a seven-day trial, and then decide whether to stay after testing the electric toothbrush, if you feel that it is not easy to use, you can also return it in time, which can effectively reduce the cost of trial and error, and the replacement cost of the brush head should also be considered, the brush head should be replaced at least four times a year, if the brush head replacement is very expensive, the follow-up cost will be relatively large.
Second, the three disadvantages of choosing an inferior electric toothbrush are revealed
The above explains the practical electric toothbrush purchase skills for you, please pay more attention, because once you choose the wrong electric toothbrush, it may hurt your teeth, the dental health rate of adults in China is less than 1% (as shown in the figure below), a variety of oral diseases make our oral tolerance very low, but because the dental disease is not painful at the beginning, so we do not have enough understanding of their oral health status. Moreover, there are many unprofessional products in the electric toothbrush market, and it is easy to choose unprofessional products if you follow the trend at will, which will bring the disadvantages of hurting your teeth.
The disadvantages of an inferior electric toothbrush are mainly as follows:
Disadvantage 1The bristles of inferior electric toothbrushes are often very sharp and rough, and the vibration frequency is not very stable, which is easy to overstimulate the teeth and gums when brushing, causing toothache, tooth bleeding and other problems.
Disadvantage 2Chinese people generally have oral problems, if you use an inferior electric toothbrush, the diseased area in the mouth will be overstimulated, and the dental disease will accelerate the deterioration.
Disadvantage 3,The use of unprofessional electric toothbrushes to brush teeth also has the problem of chronic tooth damage, which is relatively hidden, and under the influence of accumulation, it will eventually bring irreparable damage to users such as gum recession and loose teeth.
The three or four major IQ tax products must not be selected
After the above Xi, everyone should know how to choose an electric toothbrush, and also know that you can't buy an electric toothbrush at will, otherwise it may bring very serious disadvantagesIn order to take you to have an in-depth understanding of the causes of tooth injury of inferior electric toothbrushes, I found the following summary statistical chart of the causes of tooth injury of electric toothbrush users from the authoritative oral forum, which shows the various reasons that cause inferior electric toothbrushes to hurt teeth, and most of the reasons point to the following four types of IQ tax products!
1. Cheap electric toothbrushes
In order to quickly attract consumers, many electric toothbrush businesses have launched low-cost products, which seem to be very cost-effective, but in fact, they are very pitiful, because the selection of materials for such ultra-low-cost electric toothbrushes is generally very poor, and businesses often choose unrounded bristles, coreless motors and other components to make products, the parameters of electric toothbrushes are not balanced and stable, and the product failure rate is very high
2. Internet celebrity brand electric toothbrush
Internet celebrity brands are more keen on marketing hype, but they do not attach much importance to the professional technology of electric toothbrushes, the production cost of electric toothbrushes is only dozens of yuan, but the selling price of goods can reach thousands of yuan, such brands lack oral care experience and professional technology precipitation, the actual use experience of electric toothbrushes is very bad, and problems such as gum bleeding and tooth pain often occur after use.
3. Analyze the three types of electric toothbrushes: sweeping, rotating, and sonic toothbrushes
There are three kinds of electric toothbrushes: sweeping and vibration integration, rotation and sonic type, among which the vibration frequency of sweeping and vibration integration and rotary electric toothbrush usually exceeds 60,000 times, and the sweeping angle is more than 60 degrees, and the dentist recommends that the reasonable sweeping range is 3-9 °, too strong vibration frequency will cause serious damage to the teeth and gums, the cleaning power is too strong, it is easy to cause tooth sensitivity, brushing bleeding and other problems, can not adapt to the oral environment of the Chinese people, only suitable for European and American people with high oral tolerance, these two types of representative brands are Lai*, Oral*, etc. As far as the oral status of Chinese people is concerned, dentists recommend Chinese people to use sonic electric toothbrushes with strong cleaning power and high tooth protection, which can better maintain oral health compared with the other two types. You need to pay attention to choosing a sonic electric toothbrush produced by a professional brand, their vibration frequency stability and sweeping angle adjustment are more scientific, and the representative brands are *, *Pu, etc.
4. Cross-border brand
Many brands have never done oral care before, seeing the high popularity of electric toothbrushes in the past two years, they may be famous, the body material is good, but the brand has no oral care experience, and there is not enough professional and technical strength to optimize the gum and tooth protection experience, long-term attenuation, sweeping angle and other more than 100 core parameters of the electric toothbrush, and the tooth injury rate is more than 3 times higher than that of professional electric toothbrush brands!
In order to allow you to better identify the false propaganda of the merchants, and buy an electric toothbrush that really cleans and protects the gums and teeth, I found the cleaning power and comfort evaluation data of the electric toothbrush from the authoritative organization, which is convenient for you to choose. I will also share my experience of using several electric toothbrushes myself, so that you can have a comparison.
Among the large number of electric toothbrush brands reviewed in the past,As a recognized pioneer in the field of "not hurting teeth" in China, FILIX is undoubtedly the best comprehensive performance and professional tuning in this fieldIt is also the main model that I have used for the longest time, it is a rare electric toothbrush with a medical background and strict medical research and development standards, and it is also the only brand that has been certified by the European Union, the United States and other countries!Now it has launched the third generation of upgraded new products, pioneering research and development of eight major performance and tooth-friendly black technology, top-notch cleaning power and 89% reduction of damage, rare EU certification!The power is very strong, but the attenuation is very low, and the vibration frequency stability is extremely high!It is the first brand in the industry to provide orthodontic brush heads, and the dental compatibility of complex people in China is great!The reason why we can achieve super comprehensive performance is to focus!Dead professional!There are no redundant functions, no large number of models, just a product for several years, iteratively upgraded more than 20 versions!Optimized more than 300 details!After 6 years of anti-attenuation testing, it has achieved 6 years of comprehensive performance, durability, tooth and gum damage rate certification, and the non-toxic and corrosion resistance of the bristles has been improved by 983%, safer and non-toxic!
It is the first to create eight "high-performance non-tooth-harming" black technologies, such as approved vibration frequency technology, innovative gingival high-frequency array massage technology, DPP micro-frequency dynamic compensation technology, etc., and tunes and optimizes more than 100 items such as long-term attenuation, deviation value and vibration sweeping angle of vibration frequency to ensure that the deviation value of various performance indicators for more than 6 years is not higher than 01%, almost never advertised, but because of the strong recommendation of many dentists, the sales of offline channels have skyrocketed and are often sold out. Compared with many brands, Huile fights for beauty and low price, and it is recognized for its rigorous medical research and development of electric toothbrushesBecause the brush is clean and does not hurt teeth, many celebrities and celebrities use it, and dentists recognize that it is very protective of teeth!
Also Philips is ok,The brand is relatively famous, the workmanship quality is OK, and the cleaning power is OK. If you pursue cost-effectiveness,Among the low-priced products, you can take a look at Bayer and Shuke,The basic configuration parameters and functions are quite passable, and the brush head is about 20 yuan.
In terms of after-sales, Philips does not support trials, and the brush head costs about 200 yuan per year. Huile not only supports unpacking and trial, but also gives away a 5-year brush head for a limited time.
Fourth, choose the six benefits of electric toothbrushes
The tips for choosing a high-quality electric toothbrush summarized above should give you an idea of how to choose a high-quality electric toothbrush, and using a professional product can bring a lot of benefits to our mouth. There are many dental patients in China, more than 90% of the population suffer from dental disease (as shown in the figure below), usually toothbrushes, toothpicks, dental floss and other cleaning tools are not enough to meet the cleaning needs of the Chinese people, and the cleaning power of electric toothbrushes far exceeds them, can help us take good care of the mouth, so dentists are very supportive of our use of electric toothbrushes, it will bring many benefits to oral health, let me briefly summarize a few points for you:
Benefit 1: Good cleaning ability, effective prevention and improvement of dental disease
The cleaning power of the electric toothbrush is far greater than that of the manual toothbrush, which can brush the high-incidence areas such as the tooth gaps, gingival sulcus, and the back of the teeth that are difficult to clean with the manual toothbrush, and comprehensively remove the plaque in the mouth, which can prevent and improve dental disease.
Benefit 2: Can massage the soft tissues of the gums
The electric toothbrush can also massage the gums while cleaning the teeth, which can promote the metabolism and blood circulation in the soft tissues of the gums, help orthodontic people relieve the pressure caused by long-term braces, and prevent gum recession.
Benefit 3: Precise control of brushing intensity
Manual toothbrushes require users to subjectively control the brushing intensity, and the position of a good brush such as the tooth surface is often over-cleaned, while the gingival sulcus, wisdom teeth and other positions are difficult to use precise force, which is likely to leave a cleaning dead end, while the electric toothbrush has a stable vibration frequency and can accurately operate the brushing strength to avoid the situation that the force hurts the teeth or the force is not clean.
Benefit 4: Better removal of bad breath odor
There are many dead corners of manual toothbrushes, and plaque and food residues that are not cleaned in place are often fermented in the mouth, which is easy to produce peculiar smells, which has an impact on the freshness of breath, while electric toothbrushes have a wide range of cleaning ranges and no blind spots, which can effectively avoid the generation of oral odor and keep the breath fresh.
Benefit 5: Save time and effort
Manual toothbrush cleaning efficiency is low, at least more than 10 minutes to fully clean the mouth, but if you use an electric toothbrush, two or three minutes can be done, very time-saving and labor-saving, it is very necessary to use it for office workers and students with a tight pace of life.
Benefit 6: Makes teeth whiter
For stubborn stains such as tea stains, cigarette stains, and coffee stains, manual toothbrushes basically do nothing, while electric toothbrushes can clean them, slow down the formation of dental calculus, and help everyone whiten their teeth.
How to choose an electric toothbrush?After reading the explanation of this article, everyone should know the answer to this question. All in all, we must choose high-quality electric toothbrushes with strong professional and technical strength and excellent gum and tooth protection experience, and those Internet celebrity brands and cross-border big-brand electric toothbrushes with no oral care experience generally have a great risk of tooth damage, so we must pay attention to avoid them in time!
