Electric toothbrushes

The right toothbrush for you depends on a lot of factors and your individual needs. A classic brush will run you a few bucks at the drugstore, so it's easy to stock up and keep one at home, one in your desk, and maybe even one in your car. But wouldn't you rather opt for the best electric toothbrush?

What is the best electric toothbrush, anyway? For those who are serious about their oral care routine, these toothbrushes are better at removing plaque than manual toothbrushes, and often come with fun features like a built-in timer so you know how long to keep brushing. Chances are, you aren't brushing long enough right now, so to change your oral hygiene for the better, it's time to invest in another option.
