Electric Toothbrush Heads
Designed to work with your electric toothbrush, there are many different brush heads available which boast different properties. From whitening to flossing and more, these specialist brushes can give your cleaning routine a boost.
Oral B offers the largest selection of brush heads that whiten and offer a more complete clean. These include the Precision Clean and Sensitive Clean brush heads which are supplied with Oral B best electric toothbrush heads as standard. There’s also the Deep Sweep head which uses unique MicroPulse bristles for a floss-like clean and the Charcoal brush head which uses cup-shaped bristles to offer a tooth-by-tooth clean that helps remove surface stains.
The 3D White is another whitening head that offers a gentle polishing action to help lift surface stains. Inspired by professional dental tools, this whitening brush head gently and effectively polishes away stains to leave your teeth whiter than ever. It’s best used alongside an Oral B electric toothbrush that offers a dedicated Whitening Mode.
Electric Toothbrush Heads With Whitening Properties
For a softer, more thorough clean there’s the Sensitive Clean brush head which has special rubber/silicone bristles that are rounded and designed to minimise gum abrasions. They wrap around a larger inner tuft of softer nylon bristles to reach every single corner of your mouth. The Sensitive Clean head is compatible with all Oral B rechargeable electric toothbrushes with the exception of the iO range.
There are also more specialised brush heads such as the Floss Action and Oral-B Glide. The Floss Action has special bristles that are designed to get into the spaces in between your teeth for a more thorough clean than regular brush heads. Oral-B Glide has soft, rounded bristles that are designed to fit perfectly in your mouth. It works to prevent gum damage and receding gums by removing plaque and debris from hard to reach places.
It’s important to note that the specialised whitening heads, and all toothbrush heads, should only be used with a gentle pressure to avoid damaging your teeth or gums. Too much pressure can lead to enamel damage and receding gums which is irreversible and not something you want to do.
There are a lot of things to consider when choosing the right toothbrush heads, including gum sensitivity, existing dental work and cleaning goals. It’s a good idea to talk to your dentist for insights into what the best options are for you. They’ll be able to help you find the perfect match for your oral health needs and cleaning goals. Plus, if you’re using high-quality replacement heads, they’ll last longer so that you’re not replacing them as frequently. This can save you money in the long run and ensure that your oral hygiene is in tip-top shape.
