Best Electric Toothbrush for Braces

Wearing braces can be cumbersome and finding the best electric toothbrush for braces is not as difficult as there are a couple of electric toothbrushes that are specifically designed with braces in mind, check out the best electric toothbrush for braces.




The first being the Oral-B Pro-Health this electric toothbrush is designed especially for teens to get the food out of their braces. It is so important to get any leftover food away from your gums.

 Leftover food particles and bacteria can creep into crevices and get stuck between braces, making it difficult for tweens to achieve a thorough clean. This in turn can lead to harmful plaque buildup and cavities galore.



Oral-B Pro-Health electric toothbrush is rechargeable, making it easy for tweens to stay on top of their cleaning routine, it has the handy timer makes sure they brush for the dentist-recommended 2 minutes for a thorough, healthy clean.


This electric toothbrush has a waterproof handle with fun designs and is compatible with multiple toothbrush heads.

Each toothbrush head’s design is inspired by the round shape of professional dental cleaning tools and is the perfect size for the smaller mouths of tweens.

Then there is the Philips Sonicare for Kids Model HX6311/02  this is specifically designed for small hands to hold the brush and smaller heads to fit in a child size mouth. There is a KidTimer with this model  that will start with a lower power and brushing time and automatically increasing over each sequential use, which make brushing fun and enjoyable for them.

It has many features for a toothbrush, it has  110 to 240 V adjust ability which is great when traveling.

Kids tend to brush too hard and the electric toothbrush helps, you just place the brush against the teeth and move it from section to section There is a quadrapace timer which has a musical tone every 30 seconds to let your child know to move to the next quadrant of their mouth.






HOW TO BRUSH TEETH WITH BRACES

You need to brush your teeth 3 times a day, you need to brush for a full two minutes with each brush, this is the recommendation from dentists. You will need to replace the brushes every 3 months as the braces are hard on the bristles.

Brush all parts of your teeth, fronts, sides, back and your tongue and roof of your mouth.

End rounded bristles works really well when brushing braces. Rinse your mouth after brushing with mouth rinse or water.

Sonicare tends to have stronger vibrations, both electric toothbrushes are great for braces, I highly recommend the Oral B Pro Health as the best electric toothbrush for braces in 2019.
