Dental hygiene can seem an ongoing chore.  There are times when the daunting task of never ending tooth care can feel more like forever climbing a peakless mountain.  Certainly, brushing your teeth does is not as dramatic as a Hollywood thriller all the time but it can seem a nuisance nonetheless.  Easton Dentists know your pain but instead of resting on their laurels and sitting contentedly behind their own pearly whites, they are here to help you.  They are here to make tooth care a little more bearable and, hopefully, a little bit easier on your wallet.

Every week, it seems, companies roll out a new toothbrush that has all the bells and whistles that will make your teeth so white they’ll glow in the dark and your breath so fresh people will fall in love with you when you speak to them.  Easton Dentists haven’t yet found a toothbrush to do all that but they have found one that they think works pretty well.  The Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush is about as a good a toothbrush as there is on the market today.

As electric toothbrushes are a relatively new arrival in the consumer market, it is entirely possible that you have never used one but have stuck to the old standard of a manual toothbrush.  Manual toothbrushes have worked for generations so why change now?  Both a manual toothbrush and a Sonicare DiamondClean will clean your teeth; it’s just that a Sonicare DiamondClean will do it so much better.  A manual toothbrush works only as fast as you do.  With as much effort as humanly possible, you may be able to attain one to two hundred brush strokes per minute.  With a Sonicare DiamondClean or most other sonic toothbrushes, you’re looking at upwards of 31,000 brush strokes per minute.

What separates the Sonicare DiamondClean from other electric and sonic toothbrushes is the detail Philips put into it.  There are five cleaning modes designed to tailor the toothbrush to your specific needs.  Clean mode works to give a general brushing experience.  Polish mode is designed to make your teeth shine.  White mode lifts stains.  Gum Care mode focuses primarily on the health of your gums and Sensitive mode is perfect for people who need a gentler cleaning.  Additionally, the USB charger makes it easy to travel with the brush.

If you are in the market for a new toothbrush, Easton Dentists have already done the research for you and they highly recommend the Philips Sonicare DiamondClean.
