Electric toothbrushes have many advantages over manual toothbrushes, such as more effective plaque removal, especially in hard-to-reach areas. They are also better for gum health and help prevent gum disease and recession.
Amazon offers a wide range of them, including the popular Oral-B iO 3, whose price has been more than halved. The black, blue and pink models are now £59.99, down from £160 – this is cheaper than getting it from Boots (£75).
It has a dentist-inspired round brush head combined with micro-vibrating bristles for a professional clean feel at home. It is also designed with a sensor that works to prevent you from brushing either too hard or too soft to better protect your gums.
The electric toothbrush has a 4.6 rating from over 19,000 reviews. One very happy shopper wrote: “My first electric toothbrush and it cleans really well – I felt a huge difference from the first use.”
Another added: “This electric toothbrush has everything you could need it for. The charge lasts a really long time, the built-in timer is great and it looks great on the bathroom side too!”

A third commented: “My teeth feel much cleaner when I use this toothbrush. It doesn’t need to be recharged very often and is much better than a regular brush – it was also very affordable.”
Elsewhere, there’s the Philips Sonicare HX6807 ProtectiveClean 4300 Electric Toothbrush, which has been reduced from £129.99 to £59.99 at John Lewis. Available in white and black, it works to drive liquid deep between the teeth to gently but effectively remove plaque between the teeth and along the gum line.
It has a rating of 4.5 based on 505 reviews. “Since using my new toothbrush I’ve been really on top of my cleaning, every time I brush it’s like a hygienist clean,” said one buyer.
