How do you choose a children's toothbrush?

Do you want to teach your child how to brush their teeth properly? An electric toothbrush for children is a good choice. But from what age is electric brushing suitable for a child? And what should you keep in mind when choosing a children's toothbrush? In this article, we'll explain how to choose the best electric toothbrush for your little one.

Choose a children's electric toothbrush

Toothbrush with Sparkly app

When choosing a children's electric toothbrush for your little one, it's important to ask yourself the following questions:

  • What age is your child?
  • Do you want your child to brush with a round or an oval toothbrush?
  • Does your child have braces?

What age is your child?

Toddlers' electric toothbrush

Toddlers' electric toothbrush

A couple of electric children's toothbrushes are suitable for children from 3 years. These toothbrushes have a small brush attachment with extra soft bristles. These bristles carefully brush the milk teeth of your toddler.

Children's electric toothbrush

Children's electric toothbrush from 6 years

Most electric children's toothbrushes in our assortment are suitable for children from 6 years. These toothbrushes have a brush attachment with soft bristles and an accompanying app with Disney or cartoon characters. This app motivates your child to brush for 2 minutes, and makes it a lot more fun to brush teeth.

Teenager's electric toothbrush

Teenagers' electric toothbrushes

There are also electric toothbrushes specially designed for teenagers. These toothbrushes have a special brush attachment for braces. In addition, the toothbrushes work with an app, so your teenager learns to brush better. Are you looking for an electric toothbrush without app? The electric toothbrushes for adults with a soft brush attachment are also suitable. These are the brush attachments for sensitive teeth and inflamed gums.

Do you want a sonic or a rotating toothbrush?

Philips children's toothbrush

Sonic

You'll recognize the sonic children's toothbrushes by Philips Sonicare right away by their oval brush head. The bristles of this toothbrush vibrate at a high speed. Thanks to the oval shape and vibrations, your child can use a sonic children's toothbrush the same way as their manual toothbrush.

Oral-B children's toothbrush

Rotating

Rotating children's toothbrushes by Oral-B have a round brush head that rotates at a high speed. Not as fast as the toothbrushes for adults, but fast enough to remove more plaque than with a manual toothbrush. The round brush head encircles every tooth and can also reach the ones in the far back thanks to the small size.

Does your child have braces?

Braces electric brushing

Does your child wear braces? Choose a brush attachment that's suitable to brush braces. All electric toothbrushes are suitable for brushing braces if you use the right brush attachment. These brush attachments have soft long bristles and are specially designed to brush around the braces. The bristles have been placed in a way that you can also brush difficult-to-reach areas.
