Power Toothbrushes : Question and Answer

A:

Power toothbrushes will range in price from as little as $6 for a basic disposable model to over $200 for a rechargeable one. If you are on a budget, we'd suggest the Arm & Hammer Spinbrush Sonic ProClean Rechargeable Toothbrush (est. $25) since it has features similar to the higher-priced models (i.e. sonic technology, different brushing speeds and a 2-minute timer with 30-second pacer). If you can afford to spend a little more, the Oral-B ProfessionalCare SmartSeries 4000 (est. $100 - $130) and the Sonicare Flexcare+ (est. $170 - $190) are two of the best power toothbrushes you can find. They will be the most effective at removing plaque and improving overall gum and dental health. They offer more brushing speeds and brush head options than the less expensive models, and their batteries will last longer between charges. They also come with other helpful features like built-in pressure sensors and UV brush head sanitizers.
