I’ve been looking into different toothbrush options for my young patients, and I’m curious about what others recommend. Recently, we started using the electric toothbrushes designed for kids, and the feedback has been great since they really enjoy brushing their teeth now. Do you have any favorites that you find work well in your practice?
But i totally get what you mean! Kids seem to have two speeds: full throttle or none at all. One toothbrush I’ve found that gets them excited is the dinosaur or superhero-themed models — those make brushing feel like an adventure.
Electric toothbrushes really seem to be a game changer for kids! I’ve noticed that a lot of them respond well to the ones with fun lights or music. @rebecca_r88, have you tried any with timers to help them brush long enough? It’s like a mini concert every time.
