Electric tooth brushes.

My grown up children and my little grand children all use electric toothbrushes and seem to have had little or no dental treatment since using them.

As an experiment I bought a child's battery operated toothbrush but it makes me nervous and I'm worried that it will dislodge my fillings of which I have a LOT including a crown on one of my teeth near the front.

Any experiences of electric toothbrushes would be very much appreciated.

I have also used an electric toothbrush for years and have crowns and fillings which remain in tact. The round ones are better than the toothbrush shaped ones. All the electric toothbrushes I have used cut out if you apply too much pressure. It is important to change the brush heads regularly but you can get special offers from Boots, Amazon and Groupon. I would never go back to an ordinary toothbrush.
