Braun Oral-B Professional Care 1000 1 Mode Rechargeable Toothbrush
This is an electric toothbrush with only one cleaning mode, but still works great and allows you to thoroughly clean your teeth and do so without hurting your gums. The Braun Oral-B Professional Care 1000 has two time indicators: the first one sounds every 30 seconds, telling you to start brushing different quadrant of your mouth, and the second one goes off at the end of the recommended two-minute brushing cycle. With the help of its round, innovative brushing head that pulsates 40 000 times per minute and rotates 8 000 times per minute this electric toothbrush removes twice as much dental plaque as most manual models. An indicator also lets you know when the battery needs recharging and the brush also comes with a spare brushing head. The only two matters that you might find unsatisfactory are the small stand and the fact that the charger has a two-pin plug.

While brushing the teeth properly with manual toothbrush is still possible, studies have confirmed that people, using electric toothbrushes tend to stick to the recommended two-minute brushing, use the toothbrushes more often, and manage to maintain better overall oral hygiene.
What are the different types of electric toothbrushes and what are their features?
There are different types of electric toothbrushes and while most of them powered by batteries, there are still models, which can be plugged into an electrical socket and use a transformer. When it comes to their features, the electric toothbrushes range from the very basic ones to models that have displays and timers, making it easier for the user to stick to the recommended 2-minute brushing period. In addition, the timers could set off an alarm every 30 seconds, signaling the user to start with another quadrant of the mouth. The toothbrushes, which use rotation and oscillation have proven to be the ones that deliver excellent brushing and are the ones that clearly outperform the manual brushes. Other available models are the ones with counter oscillation, rotation, ultra sonic, and side to side head movements. The overall effectiveness of the electric toothbrushes still greatly depends on the way they are used – for a full effect, changing the heads regularly, brushing the teeth and the area, where the teeth meet the gums and brushing for full two minutes is highly recommended. There are a few types and brands, which have been designed to teach children good oral hygiene habits and they are typically brightly colored, with timer, good-grip handle, and battery operated.
