There are many benefits reported to be linked to electric toothbrushes. Some benefits reported by different manufacturers are as follows:

• Your teeth will feel better and your mouth will be healthy as a result of using an electric toothbrush.
• You’ll experience a dentist-like clean feeling. Electric toothbrushes provide a deep down cleaning that you can simply not get with conventional toothbrushes. Your teeth will feel as fresh and clean as if you just visited your dentist.
• You’ll see a dramatically whiter smile. Electric toothbrushes are far superior at removing tooth stains so that the underlying whiteness of your smile shines.
• You’ll have fresher breath. Bad breath is a major social embarrassment. The problem starts with bacteria in our mouths. Did you know that over 170 different types of bacteria live there? These bacteria feed on bits of food left on our teeth after meals. Feasting on these "leftovers", bacteria produce sulfur compounds (Volatile Sulfur Compounds -VSCs) which give breath its foul smell. These bacteria often hide in places where ordinary toothbrushes can not reach - between the teeth and under the gumline. Unlike ordinary toothbrushes, electric toothbrushes like the Braun OralB 3D Excel and Sonicare are able to reach and remove these bacteria, making your breath cleaner and fresher.
• You’ll have better protection of your teeth and gums. Did you know that millions of people are actively ruining their smile? Their instrument of destruction -- the average household toothbrush! Brushing removes the plaque bacteria which constantly grow on our teeth. This plaque bacteria creates the volatile sulfur compounds responsible for bad breath as well as the dilute acid which eats into tooth enamel to create cavities.
