It’s a new year, and you want to shake up your routine. Maybe that means switching from a manual toothbrush to an electric model. Your Wilmington dentist is fine with either as long you continue to brush at least twice daily. Additionally, your new electric toothbrush should hold the American Dental Association’s seal of approval.
This blog explores what’s new and best in electric toothbrushes for 2025.
Best Electric Toothbrushes of 2025
According to the New York Times review, these are the top picks:
Both toothbrushes retail for less than $50, and replacement heads are easy to find and affordable. Both models have powerful motors, two-minute timers, pressure sensors (letting you know when you’re brushing too hard), and excellent warranties. The top two winners met all the criteria.
The New York Times tested and retested over five dozen electric toothbrushes before selecting the Oral-B Pro 1000 (first place) and the Philips Sonicare 4100 (second place).
When you brush, move in a circular motion, and don’t forget the gums. Hit every tooth on all surfaces. We recommend using the two-minute timer to ensure you spend adequate time on your oral care routine.
Also, don’t forget to floss!
Preventive Dentistry Is Still Essential
Even the highest-rated electric toothbrush on the market is no substitute for dental care. Even the best electric toothbrush cannot remove stubborn tartar or debris from hard-to-reach areas. These are cavity-causing ingredients that require a dental professional.
Your oral care routine must always include preventive dentistry, which means dental checkups and professional teeth cleanings every six months.
