While similar in features to regular manual toothbrushes, these kinds of toothbrushes also vibrate to provide additional cleaning action. In addition to those of manual toothbrushes, features include: * Built-in AA battery that can be replaced in some models * “On/Off” or “+/-“ button located on the handle * Bristles or split brush heads specially designed to pulsate along with the vibrations Other factors that might affect your decision include: * The need to modify brushing technique: Proper brushing technique varies when using different kinds of toothbrushes. Battery power toothbrushes require you to provide all or most of the brushing action, moving the brush back and forth along all sides of your teeth and gums. In contrast, rechargeable electric toothbrushes provide the cleaning action while you need only guide it along all surfaces. Once they get the hang of it, many people find this method of brushing easier. * The level of value in terms of features and benefits: Rechargeable electric toothbrushes tend to have a higher price value than battery power and regular manual toothbrushes, but you can find some for as low as $22 MSRP, like Oral-B® Vitality®. Keep in mind that they offer more health benefits and features. Battery power toothbrushes are usually only a few dollars more than ordinary manual toothbrushes. * The ability to “test-drive” an electric toothbrush: It’s understandable to want to test-out a rechargeable electric toothbrush before buying a hi-tech one for the first time. While your dental professional is the best person to ask for a recommendation, you may also consider some affordable, entry tier options like Oral-B CrossAction® Power Max or Oral-B Vitality. They’re ideal for people who are curious about giving an electric toothbrush a try but want a taste of what it’s like first.
