One of the most recommended electric toothbrush by dentists and hygienists all around the world is the Philips electric toothbrush. Many have already shared a wonderful experience with the product and a number of users have testified that there was a noticeable improvement in their dental health since they used of the electric toothbrush from Philips. You can see a big difference in just a month of use. We will now see if those are really facts.

The benefits of the product

According to the manufacturer, the electric toothbrush can help whiten the teeth for it reduces the stains caused by tobacco, coffee or tea. It can also remove 20% more plaque than a manual toothbrush without the need of applying much pressure on the teeth and gums, thanks to its very soft bristles. This electric toothbrush can make the gums healthier, which means that you have lower risks of developing gum problems and bone loss.
How it works
The Philips electric toothbrush is a breakthrough at the University of Washington. Credits are to a group of periodontists and bioengineers in the university. Periodontists are dentists that specialize in the treatment of gum diseases like gingivitis.
The soft bristle tips of the toothbrush are powered by a built-in microprocessor that enables it to move 3x faster than electric toothbrushes manufactured by other brands. It moves in a back and forth motion which is what dentists recommend as the proper brushing stroke. It reaches the gum line and the areas in between teeth and removes the plaque.
The mouth is basically divided into 4 sections or quadrants (upper left teeth, upper right teeth, lower left teeth and lower right teeth). Dentists say that all these areas should be cleaned well during brushing and the Philips electric toothbrush ensures that. The toothbrush itself has a built in timer that beeps in an interval of 30 seconds for up to 2 minutes, which is the recommended time for proper brushing. Every 30 second beeps signal that it’s time to move the brush to another quadrant of the mouth until the whole mouth is cleaned.

Highlights of the product

If the toothbrush has shown excellent performance when it comes to dental hygiene, you’d appreciate it more because of the comfort it brings to those people with special dental conditions. As an example, for people who wears braces, the electric toothbrush of Philips is still clinically proven to remove plaque and gum irritations around the braces. For people who suffer dry mouth, or the dental condition which leads to gum diseases because of the lack of saliva, the electric toothbrush actually helps stimulate saliva in the mouth. It definitely eliminates or at least reduce bad breath caused by gum problems.

Affordability

The electric toothbrush can be bought for around a hundred dollars, but this can be quite a very good investment because of the guaranteed results you’ll see. Dentists recommend replacing the brush heads once every 6 months and that’s nothing to worry since these are sold in retail. I guess it’s now time to forget our manual toothbrushes and enjoy all the benefits of this gift from Philips.
