Oral-B Kids FAQs
Most studies indicate that electric toothbrushes clean teeth and gums much better than a manual toothbrush. Experts have found that those who use an electric toothbrush have healthier gums and have longer lasting teeth. In fact, brushing with a manual toothbrush can leave 50% of plaque behind*
*Slot DE, et al. Int J Dent Hygiene (2012) 10: 187-197. This systematic review of 59 studies evaluating 212 separate brushing exercises among more than 10,000 participants showed that using a manual toothbrush can leave behind up to 50% of plaque. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1601-5037.2012.00557.x
Oral-B has designed manual and electric toothbrushes with a growing child's teeth development in mind to deliver effective teeth cleaning. Oral-B's kid’s toothbrush lineup offers a suitable brush for every age: Babies (0-2 years), Kids (3-5 years), Juniors (6-9 years) and Teens (10+ years). For babies and toddlers between the ages of 0 – 2, a manual toothbrush with extra-soft bristles and a small brush head is recommended as gums are tender at this stage. At the age of 3, kids can upgrade their clean to an electric toothbrush. Oral-B Electric Toothbrushes for kids’ feature extra-soft bristles and their favourite characters to help keep brushing fun.
Between the ages of 0 to 2, babies and toddlers need a manual toothbrush with soft bristles that are gentle on their teeth and gums. As they grow and their smiles develop, their oral care needs also change. Oral-B has a range of toothbrushes, both manual and electric, to suit every child according to age. Oral-B's electric toothbrushes are designed to help keep kids 3 years and older brushing effectively and for the right amount of time.
Oral-B’s lineup of kids’ toothpaste features formulas with age-appropriate fluoride levels for healthy growing smiles. Toddlers should have less fluoride in their toothpaste as compared to a child who is above 6 years of age. Oral-B caters to these very specific needs as it has toothpastes categorised for different age groups - right from Oral-B Baby Toothpaste for 0-2 years, Oral-B Kids 3+ Toothpaste for kids above 3 years and Oral-B Junior 6+ Toothpaste for children above 6 years.
