Are you trying to find the best toothbrush for your child? While electric toothbrushes may seem like the cool modern brush, there are actually plenty of reasons why dentists recommend a good ol' fashioned manual toothbrush, especially for children!
Technique and Habits
For starters, a manual toothbrush allows your child to learn proper brushing techniques. Children need to learn how to brush their teeth effectively, and using a manual toothbrush helps them do just that!
With an electric toothbrush, the brush does most of the work, which makes it hard for kids to understand the right amount of pressure and angle needed for a thorough clean. With a manual toothbrush, however, they can practice brushing in circular motions and at a 45-degree angle to their teeth, which can help prevent plaque buildup and cavities. These skills are important for building good oral hygiene habits that will last throughout their life!
Make Brushing Fun!
Just because manual toothbrushes are the traditional choice doesn't mean they have to be boring. At Toothbrush Toys, we offer manual toothbrushes with fun designs and characters that your child will love. From a princess to a shark to a superhero, Toothbrush Toys are the perfect way to make brushing fun for kids! Our toothbrushes are designed to make brushing an easy part of your child's daily routine, and with the right techniques and supervision, you can help ensure that they have healthy teeth and gums for life!
Do Good for the World!
Using a manual toothbrush is more environmentally friendly than an electric toothbrush. While electric toothbrushes require batteries or charging, which can create waste and consume energy, manual toothbrushes are a more sustainable option. Plus, Toothbrush Toys are made with an environmentally friendly replaceable brush head, so you can replace the head and never have to throw away your character! Feel good about your purchase knowing that you are making a positive impact on the planet.
