Congratulations Carla!! You are our August winner of an Oral-B SmartSeries 5000 Electric Toothbrush!!
 
The benefits of simply switching your normal routine of using a manual toothbrush to an electric toothbrush are many. Powered toothbrushes maximize plaque removal since they are able to rotate or vibrate with more strokes per minute than by manually brushing. Greater plaque removal means a superior clean that will keep teeth and gums healthier with a fresh clean feel. Electric toothbrushes have shown to decrease gum recession and reduce inflammation. Most models have a timer to ensure adequate brushing time and multiple settings which can allow for a more specific kind of clean. A more thorough clean daily means less of a chance for bad bacteria to accumulate and cause cavities, bad breath, or other problems. Begin using a powered toothbrush today to experience the best at home clean and ensure a better dental check-up at your next routine visit.
