Electric toothbrushes are no longer a novelty.
They allow teeth to be cleaned more thoroughly than conventional brushes.
A variant of the electric models are the ultrasonic toothbrushes.
These do not brush the teeth through direct contact and rotating movements, but rather through a large number of vibrations in a short time.
While normal sonic toothbrushes have 30,000 vibrations per minute, the number for ultrasonic toothbrushes is over a million in the same time window.
Although this high frequency suggests a lot of vibration, the opposite is the case: the toothbrush works almost silently and it does not move - however, invisible ultrasonic waves ensure thorough cleaning.
Especially at the beginning, the use is usually very unfamiliar.
Ultrasonic toothbrushes: the main features
Battery
: Most ultrasonic toothbrushes have a lithium-ion battery.
This not only has a long running time, it can also be charged faster.
Typically, a full battery charge lasts up to five days before the brush needs to be recharged.
Since the toothbrush is in the charging station or connected to the charging cable most of the time anyway, this point is negligible.
Functions
: Ultrasonic toothbrushes offer additional functions, the pressure control is particularly important.
A charge level indicator or a timer are also useful.
Scope of delivery
: Since the brush heads wear out over time, it is not a bad idea to include a replacement in the scope of delivery.
A travel case is also an advantage so that you can store the brush easily when you take it with you when you travel.
Price
: For a real ultrasonic toothbrush you have to dig a little deeper into your wallet than with other models.
Usually they cost between 100 and 200 euros.
