What is the best electric toothbrush for you?

3D cleaning action technology vs. sonic technology

There are two primary types of electric toothbrushes to select from; Sonic Technology and 3D Cleaning Action technology. Understanding the differences between these technologies is important to finding the perfect toothbrush that fits your needs. Consider the following data in support of 3D Cleaning Action technology:

• Removes 22% more plaque.
• Removes 33% more plaque in hard to reach places.
• 32% better at improving gum health.
• While they both provide a better clean than a manual brush, Sonic Technology only vibrates, delivering much less brush head movement than you’d expect. Oral-B electric toothbrushes have unique 3D Cleaning Action technology, which pulsates to breakup plaque, then rotates to sweep it away. 3D Cleaning Action removes more plaque, reducing gingivitis and delivering overall better oral health results.
