A robot comparison of efficacy of battery toothbrushes
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This laboratory study to compare the cleaning efficacy of battery-operated power toothbrushes was carried out in two phases. Firstly, the Braun Oral-B D4/EB4 was compared with the Colgate Actibrush and secondly the D4/EB4 was compared with the Dr. Best Powerclean. All three brushes are battery-operated and have a small round brushhead with an oscillating/rotating action. They differ, however, with respect to both oscillating/rotating frequency, the angle of oscillation and the brushhead design. The Braun D4/EB4 has been developed from the Braun Oral-B Plaque Remover which has been shown in clinical studies to be more effective than a manual toothbrush.
