More than half of all children in the US will develop a dental cavity by roughly the third grade, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Although using an electric toothbrush is not guaranteed to reduce dental issues, experts say a powered brush can make it easier for some kids to achieve good oral health habits.
For children using an electric toothbrush for the first time—or for anyone who prefers gentler vibrations and is okay with doing some manual brushing to achieve a complete cleaning—the Quip Kids Electric Toothbrush is a great choice.
The Philips Sonicare for Kids Sonic Electric Toothbrush and the Oral-B Kids Electric Toothbrush are more powerful (and louder and heavier) rechargeable brushes that do more of the brushing work than the Quip brush. The Philips Sonicare brush can sync wirelessly with an interactive app, which some brushers may find motivating.
