Do they get your teeth cleaner than brushing manually?

What's the best brand to get?

I recommend Sonicare. I have had one for about 2 years now, and I absuloutely love it. It makes your mouth feel all numb and clean after you use it, and it has a little timer so you can brush for exactly 2 minutes and such. And yhes, my teeth have never been cleaner. :D

Get Sonicare, really really good toothbrush. Its true that my mouth has never been cleaner but don't expect it to get your teeth sparkling white. I've been using it for almost a year now and I haven't seen any significant color change of my teeth.

I have a Reach Powerbrush that is excellent for less than $20 (U.S.). Replacement heads are $9.99 for two pack.

I have had to return several of the Crest 4.99 ones, they do not spin correctly after a couple of uses, do not waste your money. Like anything else, invest a couple more bucks on quality and you will be happier.

Same here. Plus, you really can reduce your brushing time vs manual brushing. That is key!

Walmart has an 'Equate' model. Equate is their house brand. It sells for $20 and I think it does a great job!

I've been using a Braun/Oral-b one for maybe the last year or so. I paid about $40 for it. I've never brushed my teeth more than once a day (19 years old) and have never had a cavity but after I started using this I noticed my teeth are cleaner. My dentist doen't complain about plaque build-up either. Best cleaning investment I've made!

Get Sonicare.

I had one until it got lost in airport. I ordered one that claimed to be better than Sonicare in this way and that way. It's built like plastic toy and totally sucks.
