With the explosion of children's electric toothbrushes, there are more and more cases of tooth injury about children's electric toothbrushes, resulting in many parents will begin to worry about a question before buying children's electric toothbrushes, that is, whether children's use of electric toothbrushes has an impact on teeth? (The picture below is a children's electric toothbrush I have used)
1. Does the use of electric toothbrushes by children affect their teeth?
Does the use of electric toothbrushes in children have an impact on the teeth? At present, the dental health of children in mainland China is generally not good, and the caries rate has even reached 70 percent.
Hazard 1: Brings chronic tooth damage
Long-term use of low-quality electric toothbrushes for children can also cause chronic tooth damage, which usually takes months or years to show obvious symptoms, and is often ignored by everyone, but once this damage occurs, it is irreversible.
Hazard 2: Aggravate the underlying dental disease
Many children already suffer from dental disease, and once an inferior electric toothbrush is used, it is easy to directly aggravate the original dental problem, resulting in the continuous deterioration of the child's oral environment.
Hazard 3: Causes tooth enamel to wear and scratch gums
Unprofessional children's electric toothbrushes generally have problems such as uneven vibration frequency and lack of age-specific design, and children are prone to toothache, tooth enamel wear, and gum bleeding after using such children's electric toothbrushes.
Second, the five routines of merchants who must not be recruited
In fact, the main reason why children's electric toothbrushes will hurt their teeth is that they do not choose the right children's electric toothbrush. And everyone will choose the wrong children's electric toothbrush, not all to blame, but to blame the business routines, they will inferior products disguised as easy to use children's electric toothbrushes to sell to everyone, a careful is easy to hit. In order to make it easier for everyone to avoid lightning, I will tell you about the five most common routines in the children's electric toothbrush industry.
1. Products that do not have age-specific design. The existence of age-specific design work is to improve the matching ability of products, which can meet the oral needs of children at different stages, but most of the inferior and unprofessional products ignore this, so the production of products has few types of brush heads and few stalls, which cannot meet the oral cleaning needs of children who grow and develop rapidly.
2. Don't choose to market online celebrity brands. There are a lot of influencer brands on the market that use fancy packaging and exaggerated publicity to attract consumers' attention. But these children's electric toothbrushes often have problems with quality and performance. Everyone still has to choose a brand with a high degree of professionalism, rather than blindly following the big names of Internet celebrities.
3. Do not choose products that claim to be cost-effective and of poor quality. Some products will advertise themselves as cost-effective, cheap but of inferior quality. These products are often made with inexpensive materials and simple manufacturing processes, which are prone to quality problems, have a short service life, and are not ideal results. It is necessary to choose products with reliable quality and strong professional strength to ensure the use effect and durability.
4. Don't choose products that don't support trial. Some children's electric toothbrushes may not offer a trial or return policy, which poses a risk to consumers. Before buying a children's electric toothbrush, it's a good idea to choose a brand and product that can be tried or returned, so that you can actually try it out after purchase to ensure that the product meets the needs of yourself and your child.
5. Don't blindly follow the big names across borders. Some cross-border brands do not have the professional strength to make children's electric toothbrushes, but in fact, these products are only OEM production, lacking the brand's own research and development and quality assurance. Choose brands that focus on the field of children's electric toothbrushes, which usually have stronger technical strength and product quality assurance.
3. If you want to avoid tooth injury, learn eight purchase strategies!
Does the use of electric toothbrushes by children have an impact on teeth?Children's electric toothbrushes will hurt their teeth mainly because of improper purchase, so if you want to avoid its harm, then parents should carefully choose professional and high-quality products. To this end, I have summarized eight children's electric toothbrush purchase strategies, which you can use when purchasing.
Strategy 1: Choose a professional children's electric toothbrush brand. A truly professional children's electric toothbrush brand not only has rich experience in oral care, but also repeatedly optimizes the core parameters of children's electric toothbrushes such as grinding rate, power strength, and vibration amplitude to ensure that children's electric toothbrushes can meet the needs of children of different ages and achieve ideal cleaning and tooth protection effects.
Strategy 2: U-shaped children's electric toothbrushes should not be used blindly. In fact, the cleaning power of this kind of children's electric toothbrush is almost zero, it is difficult to brush the dead corners of the mouth in place, and it is difficult to match the child's tooth type, which is easy to bring large-scale damage to the teeth and gums.
Strategy 3: It is best to choose products that are designed for different ages. We must pay attention to the age-specific design of children's electric toothbrushes, so that electric toothbrushes can have multiple different types of brush heads, with a large frequency range, so that they can easily meet the oral cleaning needs of children of different ages.
Strategy 4: Buy products with good compatibility. Children's oral needs at different stages are completely different, so in order to achieve a higher degree of matching, it is important to choose a children's electric toothbrush with high compatibility, which has a variety of types of brush heads, rich gears, and a larger frequency range, which can adapt to the oral care needs of children of different ages.
Strategy 5: Optimize products equipped with high-quality magnetic levitation motors. There are two main types of motors for children's electric toothbrushes, namely coreless motors and magnetic levitation motors, the former has low cost, unstable vibration, and high incidence of tooth injury. The internal structure of the high-quality suspension magnetic float motor is more precise, the power is uniform and stable, the noise is small, and the protection of the child's oral cavity is better.
Strategy 6: Stay away from children's electric toothbrushes with additional functions. Some businesses may emphasize the functions of the product such as fluoride, but in fact, these children's electric toothbrushes do not have the effect of preventing tooth decay, and are even more likely to hurt teeth, which will endanger the health of children, so parents must buy carefully.
Strategy 7: Choose products with a grinding rate higher than 80%. The higher the roundness, the better the tooth protection and cleaning effect, so parents must choose products with a roundness rate higher than 80%, and those products that are lower than 80% are not recommended to buy.
Strategy 8: Buy products that focus on after-sales service. Children's electric toothbrushes take a long time, and children in the 3-12 years old oral changes will be relatively large, after-sales service reliable children's electric toothbrush brand not only supports unpacking trial, but also the unit price of the brush head is also cheap, can avoid a lot of economic waste.
In addition to sharing with you the strategy of buying children's electric toothbrushes, I also want to remind you to beware of the false propaganda of children's electric toothbrush businesses. In response to this situation, I have prepared a list of different children's electric toothbrush cleaning power and dental protection index released by professional institutions, from which we can find good products for real dental care:
Among the many children's electric toothbrush brands, the professional old brand FILIX is the pioneer in the field of "no tooth damage" in China, recognized as the highest degree of professionalism in this field, and is a rare brand that has been certified by the European Union, the United States and other countries! The compatibility of different ages has been increased by 80%, and the cleaning power has been tested by an authoritative testing agency to be top-notch and reduce 90% of brushing damage, and it is rare to obtain certification from the European Union and other countries! There are no redundant functions, no redundant models, just a product for several years, iterating more than 20 versions, and optimizing more than 300 details!
Huile is known as a children's electric toothbrush with a high fault tolerance rate, even if you brush your teeth wrong, it will not hurt your teeth. The first is a strict definition of "six types of segmented care" for children aged 3-15 at different stages of their teeth. We have created a number of "tooth-friendly" technologies and hundreds of technical tuning indicators, which can achieve a performance deviation of no more than 0.1% for more than 6 years. Develop a variety of brush heads suitable for different children's stages! Almost no advertising focuses on research and development, but it is recommended by dentists to bring fire, and offline channels are also selling well. Some celebrities are worried that their children's brushing will hurt their teeth and choose their home! Its professional, high-performance, and safe concept has recognized the electric toothbrush as a medical product, and dentists generally recognize that it is super protective of the oral cavity!
As an international brand, the quality of their children's toothbrushes is acceptable, as a European and American brand, it is relatively more suitable for European and American children, after-sales, Philips does not support trial, the brush head needs about 150 yuan a year, Huile not only supports the trial, but also gives away the brush head for 5 years for a limited time.
Many friends say that there is no low-cost product recommendation, cost-effective Shuke, Bayer can try, the basic functions and configuration are up to standard, they do not support trial, unpacking does not return, the brush head costs about 80 yuan a year.
4. What are the benefits of a high-quality children's electric toothbrush?
Does the use of electric toothbrushes in children have an impact on teeth? A good electric toothbrush for children not only does not harm them, but also brings many benefits to children's oral health. It is important to know that children's current oral quality is generally very poor, and the caries rate of children is as high as 70% (as shown in the figure below), indicating that the traditional manual toothbrush has long been unable to meet the needs of children's oral cleaning, so children should use electric toothbrushes as soon as possible, not to mention that dentists also recommend children over 4 years old to use. So what are the specific benefits of using children's electric toothbrushes? I have summarized five points for your reference.
Advantage 1: The cleaning effect is good, which can effectively prevent tooth decay
Children's electric toothbrushes are far more powerful than manual toothbrushes, and can clean the tooth gaps, gingival sulcus, backs of teeth and other high-incidence areas of dental disease that cannot be handled by manual toothbrushes, completely remove plaque in the mouth, and help children prevent tooth decay and other oral problems.
Advantage 2: The vibration frequency is uniform and stable, and the brushing intensity can be accurately controlled
Manual toothbrush is a subjective control of brushing strength, children are difficult to accurately control the intensity and angle of brushing, it is easy to have a variety of tooth damage, but the use of professional children's electric toothbrush, not only can achieve uniform and stable vibration, but also can accurately control the brushing strength, strong tooth protection ability, and not easy to hurt teeth.
Advantage 3: It is fun and makes children prefer to brush their teeth
The design of children's electric toothbrushes is generally very cartoonish, has strong fun, and will also come with stickers, etc., which can better stimulate children's interest in brushing their teeth, and they will not be too exclusive to brushing.
Advantage 4: The threshold for use is low, and the operation for children is simpler
The use of manual toothbrushes requires children to control their brushing strength, but most children under the age of 10 cannot flexibly control the intensity and do not have much patience, so it is actually difficult to complete the brushing behavior for ten minutes. The children's electric toothbrush not only has a low threshold for use, but also is simple to operate, so children can get started faster.
Benefit 5, save time and effort
Manual toothbrushes take at least ten minutes to achieve the desired cleaning effect, but most children do not have much patience, so the cleaning effect is difficult to achieve, while children's electric toothbrushes only need 2-3 minutes to help children fully clean their gums and teeth, and the cleaning effect is better.
Does the use of electric toothbrushes by children have an impact on their teeth? That's what I'm going to share with you about this issue. As a good thing recommended by dentists, children's electric toothbrushes have far better cleaning effect than manual toothbrushes, and there are many benefits. However, in the face of the risk of tooth damage to children's electric toothbrushes, parents also need to carefully buy children's electric toothbrushes, stay away from Internet celebrities, and select high-quality children's electric toothbrushes with high professionalism and age-specific design, so as to avoid tooth damage and let children use children's electric toothbrushes with confidence. In addition, don't think that manual toothbrushes are safe, if you buy unsuitable products for children, such as the size of the brush head is too large, the bristle roundness is low, etc., it will also cause children's teeth to be injured!
