Friends who pay attention to the personal care products of electric toothbrushes can find that there are a lot of complaints on major online platforms about "electric toothbrushes are useless" and "electric toothbrushes will hurt teeth", which shows that the explosion of electric toothbrushes has been accompanied by many controversies. Today, the oral nurse will take you to learn more about electric toothbrushes around this issue, and the article will also reveal the hidden dangers and disadvantages of inferior electric toothbrushes, so you must pay attention to it!
The picture above is some of the products I have used.
1. Is an electric toothbrush useful? Six benefits at a glance!
Are electric toothbrushes useful? Dentists and I both think that professional and high-quality electric toothbrushes are very useful oral care products, and it is also very recommended for everyone to use, because the oral health status of Chinese people is really not optimistic, and the prevalence of dental disease has even reached more than 90%, and it is difficult to cope with the complex oral environment of Chinese people by relying on manual toothbrushes alone, so Chinese people need to use electric toothbrushes, which can bring a variety of benefits to oral health.
The benefits of an electric toothbrush are as follows:
Benefit 1: Electric toothbrushes have strong cleaning ability, which can prevent and improve dental diseases
The cleaning power of the electric toothbrush is very strong, far more than that of the manual toothbrush, which can clean the blind areas where the manual toothbrush is not clean, such as the gap between the teeth, the back of the teeth, the root of the tooth, the wisdom teeth and other high-incidence areas of dental disease, and comprehensively remove the food residue and plaque in the mouth, helping everyone effectively prevent and improve dental disease.
Benefit 2: Keep your mouth fresh
Electric toothbrushes can comprehensively remove food residues and plaque in the mouth, avoid them from producing unpleasant odors after fermentation in the mouth, and maintain long-term freshness of breath.
Benefit 3: It is more time-saving and labor-saving to use
An electric toothbrush can clean your teeth in two or three minutes, while with a manual toothbrush, you need to insist on more than 10 minutes to achieve a close oral cleaning effect.
Benefit 4: Massage the gums
The electric toothbrush can help you massage the gums and promote the self-recovery of the gum tissue, which is very suitable for people with orthodontic treatment, which can effectively relieve the pressure on the gum tissue due to long-term wearing of orthodontic appliances and effectively prevent the black triangle problem.
Benefit 5: Whiten teeth
An electric toothbrush can gradually brush off the stains deposited on the outer layer of the teeth, such as tea stains, coffee stains, smoke stains, etc., and can also slow down the formation of dental calculus to achieve the effect of whitening teeth.
Benefit 6: Precise control of brushing intensity
The vibration frequency of high-quality professional electric toothbrushes is very uniform and stable, and the control of brushing intensity is very accurate, while manual toothbrushes are subjectively controlled by users, so there are often situations where the brushing intensity is too large and the brushing is too small.
2. Be highly vigilant against the three hidden dangers of inferior electric toothbrushes!
Are electric toothbrushes useful? Judging from the above explanation, electric toothbrushes are really easy to use and can bring many benefits to our oral health, but many people complain that inferior electric toothbrushes will hurt their teeth for no reason. Nowadays, the oral prevalence rate of Chinese people is as high as 90%, and the early and middle stages of dental disease are not painful or itchy, which leads many friends to mistakenly believe that they are oral health.
The hidden dangers of unprofessional electric toothbrushes are mainly manifested in the following three aspects:
Hidden danger 1Those unprofessional electric toothbrushes often have sharp and rough bristles, unstable vibration frequency, and more high and low brushing intensity, which can easily wear out teeth and scratch the gums, which in turn causes frequent bleeding and tooth soreness.
Hidden danger 2Chinese people basically have oral problems, and if you use an inferior electric toothbrush when you have dental disease, it is easy to aggravate the development of dental disease.
Hidden danger 3Long-term use of an inferior electric toothbrush can also easily induce symptoms of chronic injury, at first the user may not notice anything abnormal, but after a few months or years, the user will have irreparable oral problems such as gum recession and loose teeth.
3. The four IQ tax products that are easy to step on thunder!
Are electric toothbrushes useful? High-quality electric toothbrushes have many benefits, but low-quality electric toothbrushes also hide a variety of hidden dangers, so it is necessary for us to understand the real reasons why low-quality electric toothbrushes hurt our teeth before we buy them. So why does using a low-quality electric toothbrush hurt your teeth? In order to figure out this problem, I found a negative evaluation form of electric toothbrushes from the oral forum, and after analysis, we found that the main reason for tooth damage is that everyone makes mistakes when purchasing and buys inferior products. Then I have also sorted out the four most common IQ tax products on the market for you today, hoping to help you reduce some mistakes in purchasing and stay away from the problem of hurting your teeth.
1. Analyze the three types of electric toothbrushes: rotary, sweeping, and sonic toothbrushes
Electric toothbrushes can be divided into three types according to the different working principles: sweeping, rotating, and sonic type, among which the vibration frequency of rotary and sweeping electric toothbrushes can even reach 60,000 timesThe sweeping angle reached 60 degrees, and the dentist thought that the sweeping range of the electric toothbrush was between 3-9 degrees was more scientificThe damage to the gums and teeth is relatively large, and the oral environment of the Chinese people is not suitable, which is easy to cause tooth sensitivity, brushing bleeding and other problems, and is only suitable for some European and American people with high oral tolerance. For the oral state of the Chinese people, dentists recommend that you use a sonic electric toothbrush with excellent cleaning power and high dental protection, compared with rotary and sweeping type, sonic electric toothbrush can help you better maintain dental health, but you need to use a sonic electric toothbrush that has been professionally tuned.
2. Internet celebrity brand electric toothbrush
Internet celebrity electric toothbrush brands often put the main time and funds on marketing hype, but they do not study the professional technology research and development of electric toothbrushes, and the cost is generally only a few dozen yuan, but using Internet celebrities to bring goods, celebrity endorsements, etc., merchants can sell electric toothbrushes to hundreds or thousands of yuan, and such brands generally lack oral care experience and professional technical precipitation, and the sense of use experience is very poor, and there are often adverse reactions such as gum bleeding and toothache. Long-term use of these influencer products may also lead to chronic tooth problems.
3. Very cheap electric toothbrush
Many friends can't escape the low-price trap, those low-cost electric toothbrushes seem cost-effective, in fact, they are very pitiful, they generally use rough and inferior bristles, coreless motors and other components to process products, electric toothbrush failure rate is very high, such as high working noise, poor battery life, weak power and other complaints appear frequently, the risk of product tooth injury is very high!
4. Cross-border brand
Many brands did not do oral care products before, but seeing that electric toothbrushes have been very popular in the past two years, they have crossed over into the industry, such brand advertising has not been less, although famous, but oral care experience is seriously insufficient, and there is also a lack of professional and technical strength to optimize the training of gum and tooth protection experience, long-term attenuation, vibration angle and other more than 100 core parameters of electric toothbrushes, so the tooth injury rate of electric toothbrushes is more than 3 times higher than that of professional brands, everyone must be careful about this kind of brand!
These IQ tax products obviously hurt teeth, but businesses will also publicize them through various packaging, so that they appear in front of us as gum and tooth protection, in the face of this situation, we need to be vigilant, so what brand of electric toothbrush is really gum and tooth protection? You can take a look at the following picture, which is the key indicator data chart of the electric toothbrush I found in the oral forum, and I also bring you several high-quality products for your reference.
In terms of technology and professionalism, FILIX is recognized as a veteran brand of professional technology, as the originator of the domestic "tooth-free" field, focusing on ten years of "dental anti-aging" medical research, and is the best brand in this field of tuning. The biggest advantage is that the main "surgical" precise cleaning does not hurt the teeth!

Fourth, eight strategies for buying electric toothbrushes are shared!
Are electric toothbrushes useful? High-quality electric toothbrushes are very useful, but not all electric toothbrushes on the market are high-quality, and more are unprofessional and low-quality electric toothbrushes. So how do we choose a professional and high-quality electric toothbrush? I have combined my own experience in buying electric toothbrushes and the methods of various gods to summarize the eight major electric toothbrush purchase strategies for you, which you can refer to when purchasing.
1.Buy products with strong professional and technical strength
Professional electric toothbrush brands will repeatedly adjust and optimize more than 100 core parameters such as vibration frequency range, crowd compatibility matching, gum and tooth protection experience, and sweeping angle, and the electric toothbrush can perfectly adapt to the complex oral environment of Chinese people, and the tooth injury rate is 300% lower than that of those unprofessional Internet celebrities.
2.It is best to choose a product equipped with a magnetic levitation motor
The motor is an important component of the electric toothbrush, there are two main types, namely the magnetic levitation motor and the coreless motor, the coreless motor is low in cost, its performance is weak, the noise is large, the vibration frequency is unstable, and the risk of tooth injury is relatively high, so it is not recommended for everyone to choose. High-quality electric toothbrushes are generally equipped with a magnetic levitation motor, which has better performance, more stable operation, lower working noise, and a better brushing experience.
3.Master the pros and cons of rotating sonic sweeping electric toothbrushes
According to the different principles, electric toothbrushes can be divided into three types: rotary, sweeping and sonic type, among which rotary and sweeping electric toothbrushes have good cleaning power, but the vibration is too strongThe sweeping angle is also very large, up to 60 degrees (the dentist considers a reasonable electric toothbrush to sweep between 3-9°).Therefore, it is easy to hurt the teeth when used, and this cleaning strength is only suitable for some Europeans and Americans with high oral tolerance. The sonic electric toothbrush has a lower tooth injury rate, excellent cleaning power, and is more suitable for the oral environment of Chinese people, and this kind of electric toothbrush is also the most recommended type for dentists.
4.The sweep angle is best between 3-9 degrees
It is recommended that you choose an electric toothbrush with a sweeping angle between 3 and 9 degrees, if the sweeping angle is too large, it is easy to cause tooth damage, but it is not recommended to choose an electric toothbrush with a sweeping angle too small, and the cleaning performance is generally poor.
5.Buy products that are compatible
The oral environment of Chinese people is changing all the time, and it is necessary to use electric toothbrushes with strong compatibility, so we should choose products with many gears, rich brush head types, and a wide range of power strength, so that electric toothbrushes can have stronger adaptability in the face of different groups of people and changing oral care needs!
6.After-sales service cannot be ignored
It is recommended that you choose a brand that can be tried for 7 days without reason, you can try the product first and then decide whether to stay, the cost of trial and error has been greatly reduced, and you should also pay attention to the brush head replacement, after all, the brush head is a consumable, if you use it normally, you will have to replace it once every three months, if the replacement brush head is very expensive, the follow-up cost will be relatively large.
7.Choose the style of the brush head***
There are a lot of technical details on the brush head, such as roundness, bristle hardness, wrapping, and so on. Among them, the roundness of the bristles is one of the parameters that everyone needs to pay attention to, the top of the bristles of the electric toothbrush with the roundness rate is not up to standard, which is easy to scratch the gums and wear the teeth when brushing, and you need to choose an electric toothbrush with a roundness of more than 80% of the bristles!
8.Choose an electric toothbrush with a long battery life
It is recommended that you use an electric toothbrush with a battery life of more than 30 days, otherwise you will need to charge it frequently in the process of using an electric toothbrush, and the battery is easy to age quickly after repeated charging and discharging.
Are electric toothbrushes useful? In fact, not all electric toothbrushes are useful, only high-quality electric toothbrushes with strong technical strength and good gum and tooth protection experience are useful, they have strong cleaning power, which can help us better prevent and improve dental disease, and insist on using them can also whiten teeth and fresh breath, which is a very good tooth cleaning tool for Chinese people. And those Internet celebrity brands and cross-border big-name electric toothbrushes with no experience in oral care and low professionalism are not only useless, but also have huge hidden dangers of tooth damage, so it is not recommended for everyone to use them!
