The hazards of ultrasonic toothbrushes

Brushing your teeth is to clean your oral cavity and to maintain the health of your teeth. There are many types of toothbrushes in life. Whether it is the material of the toothbrush or the function of the toothbrush, it needs to be determined according to your own needs. Ultrasonic toothbrushes are also quite common in our daily life, and more and more people are using them. Of course, some people are also worried about the hazards of ultrasonic toothbrushes during use.

1. Principle

In fact, ultrasonic toothbrushes are also driven by electricity. They emit high-frequency vibrations when working, and the maximum vibration frequency can reach 1.6 million Hz. As mentioned earlier, a frequency of 20,000 Hz is ultrasonic waves. Through such high-frequency vibrating sound waves, the water, toothpaste and other liquids in the mouth vibrate to produce a large number of tiny bubbles - "all foam". The bubbles burst instantly around the teeth to produce high-pressure impact cleaning, and the cleaning effect can penetrate deeply into the gaps between teeth and even gums that cannot be reached by manual brushing.

2. Hazards

When we understand the advantages of ultrasonic toothbrushes, should we also hear different voices? Some people suspect that the harm of ultrasonic toothbrushes will have adverse effects on the human body. Is this really the case? Regarding this point, the medical field has not yet given a conclusion. However, according to the advice of dentists, normal people only need to use an ordinary toothbrush to clean their teeth on a daily basis, and the ultrasonic mode teeth cleaning method only needs to be done regularly, and there is no need to do such a thorough cleaning every day. So whether or not to buy an ultrasonic toothbrush is entirely a personal choice.

3. Others

An ultrasonic toothbrush is not the same as an electric toothbrush. Of course, it is also a type of electric toothbrush. However, there is an essential difference between an ultrasonic toothbrush and a traditional electric toothbrush. Ultrasonic waves not only achieve the cleaning effect through mechanical movement, but also achieve a toothbrush with super cleaning ability through the medium of ultrasonic waves. Therefore, when we talk about the harm of ultrasonic toothbrushes, we cannot ignore the advantages of ultrasonic toothbrushes.
