Electric toothbrush is one of the most popular oral care nowadays, and new users enter the pit every day, but as an oral health blogger, I think everyone should understand the advantages and disadvantages of electric toothbrushes before using electric toothbrushes. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of electric toothbrushes? Next, I will give you a detailed science popularization and share with you the tips for buying an electric toothbrush correctly, you should read it carefully!
The picture above is an electric toothbrush that I have reviewed in detail).
1. The six advantages of electric toothbrushes are super complete!
What are the pros and cons of electric toothbrushes? First take you to understand its advantages, as a new type of dental cleaning products, electric toothbrush has many advantages, is very suitable for the oral care products of the Chinese people, you must know that most of the oral conditions of the Chinese people are very poor, the dental health rate is less than 1% (see the figure below), the oral environment is complex, only relying on manual toothbrushes such as traditional single cleaning tools have been difficult to protect the oral health of the people, we urgently need to use more efficient teeth cleaning tools, and dentists recommend that we use electric toothbrushes, because electric toothbrushes have the following advantages.
1: Excellent cleaning effect, can prevent and improve dental disease
Electric toothbrushes can clean more than manual toothbrushes, such as wisdom teeth, between teeth, gingival sulcus, root and interdental junctions and other blind areas that cannot be cleaned by manual toothbrushes, and can easily achieve efficient cleaning, remove plaque and food residues, reduce the breeding of bacteria, keep the mouth clean and hygienic, and greatly reduce the incidence of dental disease.
2: It has the effect of massaging the gums
The electric toothbrush can achieve the effect of massaging the gums, which can effectively improve the blood circulation of the gum tissue, which is very suitable for orthodontic people, relieves the pressure on the gum soft tissue exerted by the braces, and better prevents gingivitis, gum recession and other problems.
3: Precise control of brushing intensity
Manual toothbrush requires users to control the intensity of brushing, the strength is difficult to achieve precise control, it is likely that the brushing force is too large to hurt the teeth or the strength is too weak to brush the problem is not clean, while the professional electric toothbrush can achieve a stable and uniform vibration frequency, the strength can be accurately controlled, to avoid the problem of too much force to hurt the teeth, small force brush is not clean and other problems.
4: It is very time-saving and labor-saving
A manual toothbrush needs at least 10 minutes to clean the teeth in place, and the cleaning efficiency is relatively low, while using an electric toothbrush only takes two or three minutes to achieve a better cleaning effect, which is very time-saving and labor-saving.
5: It can have the effect of whitening teeth
Professional and high-quality electric toothbrushes can gradually fade stubborn stains on the surface of teeth, such as tea stains, coffee stains, smoke stains and other stubborn stains are gradually brushed clean, inhibiting the formation of dental calculus, and making teeth whiter.
6: Keep your breath fresh
The electric toothbrush can completely remove plaque and food debris in the mouth, avoid the occurrence of bad breath from the source, and keep the breath fresh for a long time. However, manual toothbrushes have a large number of cleaning blind spots, and unclean food residues and plaque remain in the blind spots in the mouth, which is prone to bad breath after a long time.
2. Analyze the three major shortcomings of inferior electric toothbrushes!
What are the pros and cons of electric toothbrushes? The advantages of electric toothbrushes need to be known, but the disadvantages cannot be ignored, we talked about the advantages of electric toothbrushes above, and now let's take a look at the disadvantages of inferior electric toothbrushes. At present, the oral health of Chinese people is very poor, more than 90% of people suffer from oral problems, but dental disease is not painful or itchy in the early and middle stages, resulting in many people in a state of getting sick and not knowing, buying electric toothbrushes carelessly, often because of blindly following the trend and buying unprofessional electric toothbrushes, resulting in tooth problems.
What are the disadvantages of inferior electric toothbrushes? It is mainly manifested in these aspects:
Disadvantage 1Chinese people generally suffer from dental diseases, and the use of inferior electric toothbrushes in such an oral environment can easily lead to the accelerated development of dental diseases.
Disadvantage 2Regular brushing with an inferior electric toothbrush can overstimulate the gums and cause wear and tear on the teeth, resulting in tooth soreness and bleeding gums.
Disadvantage 3Long-term use of unprofessional electric toothbrushes will also cause chronic tooth damage, users often notice that they have been injured teeth after a few months, more than half a year, at this time most of them have appeared gum recession, loose teeth and other serious oral health problems.
3. Identify the four bad trends in the electric toothbrush industry!
The advantages and disadvantages of electric toothbrushes are introduced here, and let's talk about how to stay away from the disadvantages of inferior electric toothbrushes. In fact, most people will have tooth damage problems when using electric toothbrushes, all because of improper purchase. Please take a look at the following statistical chart of the causes of tooth injury with electric toothbrushes released by the authoritative dental forum, which also provides reliable evidence for this conclusion. The reason why so many people choose the wrong electric toothbrush is due to the fact that the water in the electric toothbrush industry is too deep, and all kinds of bad habits prevail, making it difficult for everyone to choose the right electric toothbrush. Next, I will give you a detailed science popularization of the four bad habits of the electric toothbrush industry, and I hope you will be vigilant.
1: Compete with ** battles
In order to maintain low prices without affecting profits, businesses have excessively compressed the production cost of electric toothbrushes, and selected inferior components such as bristles and coreless motors without rounding treatment to make electric toothbrushes.
2: It is impossible to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of sweeping, rotating, and sonic products
The electric toothbrush on the market can be divided into three types, namely sweeping, rotating, and sonic type, among which the sweeping and rotating products generally have a high sweeping angle and a strong vibration frequency, such as Lai*, Oral*, etc., although the cleaning power is good, but there are higher requirements for the user's oral tolerance, because their vibration frequency is as high as 60,000 minutesThe sweeping angle is as high as 60 degrees or more (the doctor thinks that the reasonable scanning range of an electric toothbrush should be 3-9 degrees).The excessive vibration far exceeds the load capacity of the teeth and gums of the Chinese people, and it is easy to wear the enamel and damage the teeth in a chronic way! Therefore, doctors generally recommend that Chinese people use sonic electric toothbrushes, compared with the other two types of electric toothbrushes, sonic products can better take into account the tooth protection and cleaning power, but the premise is that everyone buys a professional electric toothbrush with scientific vibration frequency stability and sweeping angle adjustment.
3: Most brands have a low degree of professionalism
Those Internet celebrity brands and cross-border brands have basically entered the industry in the past two years, they lack oral care experience, and they have no professional and technical precipitation, and they will not repeatedly adjust the gum and tooth protection experience, crowd compatibility matching, bristle roundness and other more than 100 core parameters of electric toothbrushes, electric toothbrushes are basically made by OEM processing, not only the brushing experience is poor, but also easy to hurt teeth.
4: Product compatibility is generally poor
The oral environment of Chinese people is very complex, so we need to use an electric toothbrush with excellent compatibility to cope with a variety of changes in the oral environment.
First, the frequency range span is narrow, the number of gears is not much, the compatibility is generally poor, and the Chinese people may use it because the product can not adapt to the complex and changeable oral environment of the Chinese people and hurt the teeth.
In addition to the above-mentioned bad habits that need to be kept away, everyone should also be wary of those electric toothbrush brands that advertise that they do not hurt their teeth, because most of them are packaged from tooth hurting pit goods. In the face of these false claims, how can we distinguish the real from the fake, and choose an electric toothbrush with good cleaning power and gum and tooth protection? The authoritative oral forum released such a **, the content is the evaluation data of the cleaning power and comfort of mainstream electric toothbrushes, I specially found it for your reference, and selected some products that I have experienced and performed better.
As a hardcore blogger who has used more than 30 electric toothbrushes, many ** recognized professional old brandsHuile is the originator of the current "tooth-free" field in China, it focuses on ten years of "tooth anti-aging" medical research, and is also the most professional and outstanding old brand in the field, the biggest feature is that the main "surgical" precise cleaning, does not hurt teeth! Pioneering research and development of eight non-tooth-harming, cleaning, anti-aging black technologies, reducing the tooth injury rate to 89%! The cleaning residue rate is less than 2%, and it has been certified by the European Union! 100% compatible with 83 kinds of oral environments, which is very powerful. With good frequency uniformity, strong power and low attenuation, it is the first brand in the industry to provide orthodontic brush heads, and it is very crowd-compatible. The key to their family being able to do it is focus! Die professional! There are no redundant functions, no large number of models, just a product for several years, iteratively upgraded more than 20 versions! Optimize 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!
Relying on ten years of practical experience in "dental anti-aging", the Huile team has made high-precision black technology that does not hurt teeth, such as dual-structure magnetic levitation motors and innovative gingival high-frequency array massage technology, so that the accuracy and error rate of vibration frequency and sweeping angle are not higher than 0 within 6 years03%。Combined with rich experience in "tooth anti-attenuation" medical technology, oral microcirculation is increased by 93%, reducing the incidence of gingivitis and periodontitis and alleviating symptoms.
Huile is not the kind of brand that chases the trendIn the face of the high rate of tooth injury in the market, everyone is fighting for the appearance and low price, and the concept of rational and rigorous research and development is widely recognizedIt gives people a down-to-earth, pragmatic, rigorous and scientific feeling, never advertises, and does not engage in live broadcastsPurely relying on the word-of-mouth of dentists, it is praised as a treasure brand with the best reputation and quality by the authority. Some celebrities and dentists are also using their homes for dental care, and dentists are recognized as very protective of teeth!
Of course, if you pursue cost-effectiveness,Among the low-priced products, you can look at Bayer and Shuke, and Libode can be consideredThe brush head is about 20 yuan (3-4 pieces are needed a year), and it is not returned.
In terms of after-sales, Philips does not support trials, and the brush head cost 100-150 yuan a year. Huile not only supports unpacking and trial, but also gives away a 5-year brush head for a limited time.
Fourth, eight tips teach you to judge the advantages and disadvantages of electric toothbrushes!
What are the pros and cons of electric toothbrushes? If you want to give full play to the advantages of electric toothbrushes and stay away from the disadvantages, you need to be more careful when purchasing and buy professional and high-quality electric toothbrushes. So in the face of a chaotic and complex market, how can we buy products with uneven quality? Here is a summary of eight purchase tips, you can follow it, and the success rate is very high.
Tip 1: Choose a product that lasts for more than 30 days
It is recommended that you use an electric toothbrush with a battery life of more than 30 days, if the battery life of the electric toothbrush is too poor, the frequency of charging will be very high, not to mention the trouble, and the battery life will be quickly reduced.
Tip 2: Use a professional electric toothbrush brand
Professional brands of electric toothbrushes will carry out fine compatibility matching according to the complex oral environment big data of Chinese people, and are willing to spend time and energy to repeatedly optimize and adjust more than 100 core parameters of electric toothbrushes, such as uniform stability of vibration frequency, gum and tooth protection experience, and power intensity range, and the tooth injury rate is more than 3 times lower than that of unprofessional Internet celebrities!
Skill 3: Choose a good after-sales brand
For example, the seven-day trial service is very convenient, and you can try the electric toothbrush first and then decide whether to stay, which can effectively reduce the cost of trial and error.
Tip 4: Identify the advantages and disadvantages of rotating sonic sweeping electric toothbrushes
According to the different working principles, electric toothbrushes can be divided into three types: sweeping type, rotary type and sonic type, among which rotary and sweeping electric toothbrushes rely on super friction to clean the mouthThe sweeping angle also far exceeds the bearing capacity of the Chinese oral cavity, reaching more than 60 degrees (doctors believe that the scientific sweeping range of electric toothbrushes is 3-9 degrees).The risk of tooth injury is high, and this kind of high-intensity cleaning is more suitable for people in Europe and the United States who have a high oral tolerance. For Chinese people, sonic electric toothbrush is more suitable, with a lower rate of tooth damage when brushing, better cleaning power and tooth protection, and this type of electric toothbrush is also the most recommended type by doctors.
Tip 5: It is more recommended to have a model equipped with a magnetic levitation motor
The motor is the main component of the electric toothbrush, there are generally two types of magnetic levitation motor and coreless motor, high-quality electric toothbrush will be equipped with a magnetic levitation motor, the internal structure design of this type of motor is more scientific, the performance is stronger, the vibration frequency is stable, and it can bring users a better brushing experience, while the coreless motor has many problems such as unstable vibration frequency, strength attenuation, high noise, poor brushing experience, and high risk of tooth injury, it is not recommended that you choose!
Tip 6: Electric toothbrush compatibility should be good
The mouth is changing all the time, so it is best to choose a high-compatibility electric toothbrush with a wide range of power strength, rich brush head types, and multiple gears.
Tip 7: Pay attention to the quality of the brush head
Factors such as bristle hardness, bristle roundness, hair planting rate, and brush head size will all have an impact on the quality of the brush head of an electric toothbrush. For example, the bristles are soft and hard, and the moderately soft bristles are the most suitable for Chinese people, if the bristles are too hard, it is easy to wear teeth and scratch the gums, and the bristle texture is too soft and will affect the cleaning power of the electric toothbrush, so it is not recommended for everyone to choose.
Technique 8: The sweeping angle should be 3-9
It is recommended that you use an electric toothbrush with a sweeping angle between 3-9 degrees, if you choose an electric toothbrush with a sweeping angle too large, it will be more irritating to the gums and teeth, and it is easy to have problems such as gum bleeding and toothache, but the electric toothbrush with a sweeping angle too small should not be chosen, and the cleaning power of the product is generally not very good.
What are the pros and cons of electric toothbrushes? The above is all the knowledge of electric toothbrushes that I want to give you today, mainly to tell you about the advantages and disadvantages of electric toothbrushes, reveal the four bad habits of the industry, and summarize the eight best purchase skills for you to buy electric toothbrushes correctly.
