THE SONIC TOOTHBRUSH

What makes it ‘Sonic’ ?

With a manual toothbrush, you can expect on average around 300 strokes per minute. If you’ve been using an electric toothbrush, it’ll stroke your teeth at between 3000 – 7000 strokes per minute.

The sonic toothbrush is the king of the lot with some 40 000 strokes per minute…that’s over 660 strokes per second!! I call it the Gatling gun.

For killing anaerobic bacteria and removing plaque, there is no better weapon.

Lock and Load

Thanks to its very high speed, this toothbrush will create waves of turbulence in the fluids present in your mouth (saliva, toothpaste) to dislodge bacteria and break tartar build up around your teeth.

The only toothbrush that will clean your tongue

When treating chronic bad breath, the tongue is the most important area in your mouth to clean! It can become a breeding ground for anaerobic bacteria. These tough little critters will hide in some of the toughest places in your mouth to avoid oxygen and saliva.

Some will have you believe that bacteria live on the surface of the tongue…NOT TRUE! They dig themselves deep inside taste buds where they are impossible to remove with a conventional tongue scraper (it only scrapes the surface) and where conventional brushing is simply useless.

With the sonic electric toothbrush however, you can brush your tongue thanks to its fluid dynamic technology. The bristles don’t have to physically touch the bacteria infested areas, the waves of turbulence will take care of that for you.

Here are some tips for tongue cleaning:

Rinse your mouth and brush your tongue for one minute. Go as far back as you can. There will be a gag reflex, but it will diminish in intensity with time ( a couple of weeks).

Spit out toothpaste but do not rinse

Brush tongue again for 20 seconds

Spit out but do not rinse

Brush teeth for at least two minutes

Rinse abundantly with water

Aside from a dramatic decrease in bad breath, you will also notice your taste buds coming alive. If you've experienced chronic bad breath for a long time, everything will be tastier because bacteria inside the taste buds will have crippled them and inhibited their proper function.

It will harm bacteria, but can also harm you!

The best sonic toothbrush usually comes with 3 different settings AND a timer. Low, Medium, and High. Because people tend to be over eager, especially if they are treating bad breath, they will be inclined right from the start to set it on its highest speed and press hard on the teeth and tongue. This will invariably cause tissue damage, irritation, and maybe even infections!

It takes time for your mouth to adapt to your new cleaning device. Start on the lowest setting and work your way up progressively, it shouldn’t take you more than a week to learn your tolerance level for the toothbrush.

Also try to not to press the toothbrush too hard on teeth and gums. It does not enhance cleaning and is completely useless even with a manual toothbrush. You need to remember that you have a little marvel of modern technology that will do most of the work for you and so much more…
