- Convenience- <\/strong>The brush does most of the work. Patients with medical conditions that affect their hands or wrists, such as missing or paralyzed fingers, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, or similar conditions should opt for an electronic brush as eel.<\/li>\r\n\t
- Deep Cleaning- <\/strong>The bristles move fast and clean deeply to reach all of the cracks, curves, and crevices that extract food particles and store harmful bacteria. The motion of the brush supplies the pressure and power needed to scrub away at any layers of plaque.<\/li>\r\n\t
- Stain Removal- <\/strong>Smoking and the frequent consumption of drinks like coffee, tea and soda can cause discoloration and staining of the teeth. The extra scouring power of an electronic toothbrush can aid in removing these types of stains.<\/li>\r\n\t
- Fresh Breath- <\/strong>Halitosis is caused by bacteria or plaque in the hidden recesses of the mouth. Electric brushes have the power to remove bacteria hidden far into the mouth, on top of and underneath the tongue and the back area of the mouth around the molars.<\/li>\r\n\t
- Proven Results- <\/strong>Researchers have found that electronic toothbrush users actually experience an 11% reduction in plaque and a 6% reduction in gingivitis compared to manual brush users.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nDental Care<\/strong><\/a> and <\/strong>Deep Cleaning Appointments<\/strong><\/a> in Los Angeles, CA<\/strong>\r\n\r\nAn electric toothbrush would be a great gift to give or receive this holiday season, but remember that there is no substitute for regular dental cleanings and check-ups<\/a> to maintain your oral health.
