Hi Guys. Here's a question frequently asked at The Smile Centre....Which is better manual or rotary toothbrushes? And here is what we think. 1. A manual toothbrush (TB) can be safer on your teeth and gums. Remember with a rotary or sonic TB there can be 3-4 types of force exerted on the teeth and gums!! 2. A manual TB may be more hygienic because it is more economical to change it more frequently. 3. A manual TB does not have the added concern of the head breaking off.  On the other hand for people who have dexterity concerns or arthritis then a rotary TB can come be effective. Let us know what you think and which one you use.
