TOP 5 affordable toothbrushes with the prefix "electro"

German quality at an affordable price is not a myth or a marketing ploy, but a Braun Oral-B Vitality Expert Precision Clean D12.513 toothbrush from the category of functional models of the low-cost class.

An electric motor is installed in the heart of the brush, which makes the "head" of the standard nozzle shake right and left over 7,600 times in 1 min. The round head of the Precision Clean universal nozzle thoroughly cleans the surface of the teeth, helps to cope with plaque and food particles, penetrating into hard-to-reach places of the oral cavity. After 3 months of operation, the blue bristles of the standard nozzle are discoloured by half, which is a signal to the need to replace the cleaning head with a new one. By the way, the model is compatible with a wide fleet of Braun Oral-B replaceable nozzles, including children's ones.

A separate plus in the karma of the brush is the presence of a two—minute timer on board. A sound signal informs the user about the end of the time allotted for the tooth brushing procedure. But with the battery charge indication, the model did not work out, which is why you will have to control the remaining energy in the battery tanks, relying on your own memory. If the brush is operated by one person twice a day, the charge lasts a week. It takes about 16 hours to replenish energy reserves.

In the reviews of the model, there are reproaches against expensive consumables, which are sometimes sold for almost half the cost of the brush itself. The Braun Oral-B Vitality Expert Precision Clean D12.513 lacks other serious shortcomings and in the league of ultra-low-cost toothbrushes, the device rules the ball almost single-handedly.

An old-timer in the market of electric toothbrushes from Panasonic is well suited for the role of a hiking option for oral care. The fact is that the model is dressed straight out of the box in a protective case with a removable top cover the size of a large tube of lipstick (160x20x20 mm).

Under the cap, a complete oval-shaped nozzle hides from prying eyes. It combines three types of bristles: for cleaning the interdental spaces, the surface of the teeth and the area between the teeth and gums. Under the influence of sound vibrations (about 16K per minute) the bristles move up and down from the handle to the top of the head and back, which ensures high cleaning efficiency.

Panasonic EW-DS90 does not shine with a special variety of cleaning modes — the model has only one speed. Taking into account the form factor of the brush, it does not need much more. The "dental assistant" receives power from one "pinky" battery. However, there is no indication of the remainder of its charge, along with which the toothbrush does not remind you of the need to replace the nozzle, which needs to be done once every three months.

The model is presented on store shelves in a black unisex image, as well as more feminine colours with a predominance of pink and red. The toothbrush will become a faithful companion on long trips, travels, visits on work issues and with the same success finds application at home — in terms of versatility, the equal Panasonic EW-DS90 can be counted on the fingers of one hand.

Xiaomi's smart home ecosystem is one of the most functionally developed in the class. It unites under its wing a great variety of the most diverse devices, starting with a smart kettle and ending with electric toothbrushes. A striking example of the latter is the Mi Sound Wave Toothbrush model.

The brush in a white tube case uses sound technology for brushing teeth. The engine inside the device generates up to 31K sound vibrations per minute, due to which the maximum cleaning effect is achieved. The model is armed with a standard Dupont head with high-quality polyamide bristles. However, as it turned out in fact, replaceable nozzles from a colleague in the shop are also suitable for the brush — Soocas X3 .

The capabilities of the brush provide three modes of brushing teeth: normal, soft and custom. It is configured in the Mi Home application when connected to the brush via the Bluetooth network of the smartphone. The mobile application collects information about the duration of each procedure and the quality of tooth brushing — 6 sensors built into the nozzle are used to monitor the process. Additional options in the linked programme allow you to add 30 seconds. over the allotted time for additional whitening or gum care, as well as turn on for 10 seconds. language cleaning mode.

The device, as well as the charging dock to it, has a moisture-proof design in accordance with the requirements of the IPX7 standard. A 700 mAh battery is installed inside it, together with which you can talk about 18 days of autonomous operation of the brush (provided that teeth are cleaned 2 times a day for 2 minutes).. The user is informed about a low battery charge by a colour indicator on the model body, in parallel, a notification about the need to "refuel" the tanks "arrives" on the smartphone. The only thing that this simple procedure lasts at least 12 hours. For its cost, Xiaomi Mi Sound Wave Toothbrush completely beats its closest rivals, being the king of the low-cost segment of electric toothbrushes.

Braun Oral-B PRO 500 Cross Action is the "golden mean" in the category of inexpensive electric brushes. The model provides high efficiency of brushing teeth and is compatible with a variety of replaceable nozzles for all occasions.

"In the base" the brush is equipped with a universal Cross Action nozzle. Under the influence of an electric drive, it performs about 8800 reciprocating movements and about 20,000 pulsations per minute. The bristles, located at an angle of 16 ° to the plane of the base, "with a bang" clean the interdental spaces, do not damage the enamel and gently clean each tooth. The brush is also compatible with attachments of other formats: Floss Action (for cleaning plaque between teeth and near the roots), Sensitive (for delicate enamel and gum tissue), Trizone (for deep cleaning) and Orto (for braces).

The body of the model, as usual, is not afraid of water, so the brush can be safely used in the shower. Usually brushing your teeth with it takes 2 minutes. After the specified time, the Braun Oral-B PRO 500 Cross Action case begins to vibrate, letting you know about the need to complete the procedure. In addition, the brush is equipped with a pressure sensor — if you press hard on the teeth, the indicator flashes red and the device engine stops generating pulsating movements.

The brush charge lasts for about a week with daily brushing of teeth in the morning and evening. In which case, the low battery level is signaled by the LED indication in the handle of the device. The manufacturer recommends keeping the brush on the charging base for about 22 hours. Of the shortcomings of the model, users also note a loud buzzing during operation. However, against the background of trump cards in the sleeve, these disadvantages completely fade and a close acquaintance with a toothbrush turns into its faithful service for the benefit of maintaining oral hygiene.

Philips knows a lot about good electric toothbrushes. The brand's product range includes solutions for every taste and wallet thickness. In particular, one of the available offers in the shelf of electric brushes is the Sonicare CleanCare+ HX3212 model.

The device has a so—called adaptation mode — at first, the brush allows you to get used to the new sensations of brushing your teeth, not working at full power. After this period, the Sonicare bristles begin to make about 31,000 sweeping movements per minute. The effectiveness of brushing teeth from plaque and food particles with such data turns out to be head and shoulders higher than that of classical counterparts. Moreover, there is no need to make any sudden movements during brushing your teeth — the brush is soft enough to lead along the teeth and gums.

One of the important roles in the toothbrush is played by a timer, which helps in the gradual cleaning of all areas of the oral cavity and helps to adhere to the "two-minute rule". This is the duration of the procedure recommended by dentists when using electric toothbrushes as a cleaning tool.

Without recharging, the brush "stays afloat" for 10 days if you use it properly, i.e. twice a day in the morning and in the evening. The process of replenishing the energy of the Philips Sonicare CleanCare+ HX3212 battery tanks is delayed for more than 12 hours. However, many electric toothbrushes are guilty of this. Much more important is the fact that the model is compatible with a wide fleet of Philips replaceable nozzles — daily, bleaching, delicate, etc. You can change them at least three times a day, passing the brush from hand to hand to other family members. Philips Sonicare CleanCare+ HX3212 is a win—win option for a high-quality toothbrush with a balanced ratio of price and functionality.
