Electric Toothbrushes
Electric toothbrushes are recommended for everyone, whether they have healthy gums, gingivitis, or gum disease. They are able to offer a much more consistent, well-rounded, and protective clean. By looking for an electric brush that is rechargeable and has a built-in pressure sensor, we can better control the effectiveness of our brushing routine.

Manual Toothbrushes
The most important thing to remember when purchasing a manual toothbrush, is that it is best for the bristles to be either “soft” or “extra soft”. The brand of the brush is not overly important as long as the bristles are gentle along the gum-line and on the teeth. *The harder the bristle of the brush the more abrasive and damaging it can be for the gum tissues and on areas of the tooth that are less dense (ie. the areas of recession, also known as the dentin layer of the tooth)*
