Which kids electric toothbrush to use?
ByI am looking for a kids electric toothbrush for my 7 & 8 yr old girls and I’m not sure which one to buy. They tried one of the adult ones and didn’t like it because it vibrated too much and made their nose itch from all the buzzing. I want them to do a more thorough job brushing and think an electric brush may help. Please recommend a kids brush that does not have a lot of vibrations.

Oral B makes some very inexpensive battery powered brushes called Kids Stages starting at about $4. Your child may prefer a rotary brush head which is on the Oral B Advance Power Toothbrush for about $15. My own preference is the Sonicare Extreme e3000 which is about $25. You can get compact brush heads to fit all the Sonicare models and are preferred by children. All of these are battery operated which is why they are inexpensive.
Both companies have higher-end models with rechargeable batteries. Along with the higher prices are more functions and the ability to change the speeds so it doesn’t vibrate as much. You will have to determine what your price point is for your children. Links to all are provided below.
