Oral B comes with a nifty pressure sensor, a red light comes on, or the vibrations change, when you apply too much pressure. And one should never use a brush with medium or hard bristles.Powered versus manual toothbrushing for oral health
Removing dental plaque may play a key role maintaining oral health. There is conflicting evidence for the relative merits of manual and powered toothbrushing in achieving this. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 2003, and previously ...www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
MAJOR CAVEAT: Most people use their electric toothbrushes like manual ones, and ∴ apply too much pressure. Don't do that, unless you hate having enamel covering your teeth.
Excess pressure is more likely to wear away at the root area of the tooth. Rather difficult to fix compared to repair of enamel.
