What brush do you prefer to use? Do you think she copes with the task at least 90%? If this device really helps remove plaque from the most inaccessible corners of the mouth, and also helps you visit the dentist less often due to problems with your teeth and gums, that’s great. And the editors of the portal UltraSmile.ru bring to your attention a rating of types and brands of toothbrushes, which in 2022, according to reviews from specialists and, of course, users, received the most flattering comments and are very popular.
Rating of mechanical toothbrushes
This is a classic of the genre, which is preferred by the majority of people inhabiting our earth. Despite all the innovative accessories that have appeared in recent years (ionic, bamboo, ultrasonic and electric brushes), experts say that this type of brush is no less effective if you brush your teeth correctly and regularly (at least 2 minutes in the morning and evening, daily ), and from all the variety, choose the option that will suit you.
Mechanical toothbrushes are quite popular these days.
Recent studies have shown that classic toothbrushes are only 6-11% less effective compared to ultrasonic and electric ones. But if you compare them with ionic ones, then they have absolutely the same indicators.
Let's take a look at the best toothbrushes in this category today.
Radius Original
Radius offers a unique product of its kind. The brushes have an unusual and rather massive handle, and their head is located at an angle. By the way, the head also has an increased area, which allows you to clean even the most inaccessible corners of your mouth. But this is not all the advantages of the product. The product is available in several versions - for left-handers and for right-handers. Due to the unique handle and the features of its structure, manufacturers wanted to ensure that users did not apply excessive pressure to their teeth and gums and did not damage them. The manufacturer also assures that this brush can be used several times longer than a regular one (not 2-3, but 4-6 months).
Radius Original
The company that produces these products has all the colors and shades in its arsenal, there are options for children and adults, there are brushes with soft and hard bristles, and there are compact travel options. The issue price is from 840 to 1390 rubles.
Colgate "Premier"
A good and, at the same time, very budget option, whose cost ranges from 100 rubles. The bristles on Colgate are arranged in such a way that they allow you to easily clean even the most distant teeth - molars, premolars. The bristles themselves have a rounded shape and do an excellent job of removing dark pigmented plaque and discoloration on the enamel1. It would be good to purchase such a product after you have performed professional oral hygiene, because... it will help maintain the result and prevent the appearance of deposits during regular cleaning, which means your enamel will always look well-groomed.
Colgate "Premier"
Oral-B PRO-EXPERT “All in one”
This is a premium brush. According to the manufacturer, it has seven undeniable advantages:
- “with a bang” it copes with plaque: and studies conducted by the company show that the brush removes even up to 90%2 of plaque in the most inaccessible places and from interdental spaces - this is facilitated, among other things, by the bristles located at an angle of 16 degrees,
- helps prevent gingivitis and helps fight it,
- qualitatively treats the gum line and mucous membrane, the inner surface of the cheeks, tongue,
- helps get rid of dark plaque,
- increases blood circulation in the gums,

Oral-B PRO-EXPERT “All in one”
In addition, the bristles are equipped with a wear indicator. As soon as they change their color or lose their brightness, you can safely purchase a new product.
The cost in different stores ranges from 200 to 440 rubles.
Curaprox brand models
The Swiss manufacturer offers a choice of brushes with varying degrees of bristle hardness (but mostly soft and ultra-soft), different colors, in sets (for married and couples, for the whole family, for the morning and evening, for children and teenagers) and in single copies :
- Ultra Soft: ultra soft. Suitable for people who have sensitive enamel, as well as for those who wear removable dentures,
Curaprox Ultra Soft - Super Soft: super soft. This is an excellent option for anyone who has problems with gums and periodontal tissues,

- ATA: soft for teenagers.
All brushes of this brand have a large number of round bristles, a comfortable octagonal handle, and a very compact head. They need to be changed every three months. The cost of products of this brand starts from 430 rubles.
ROCS brand models
In the manufacturer’s arsenal there are quite high-quality options of any hardness - for any color, taste and age. There are brushes for children up to 3 years old, for people with sensitive enamel and for those who want to whiten their teeth. You can easily choose a daily “assistant” in the fight against plaque even if dentures or braces are installed on your teeth. There is also a PRO series for those who want to make their oral care as professional as possible, while at the same time providing care not only for their teeth, but also for their gums.
But the brushes with soft bristles, which have rounded or pointed (unique triangular cross-section), smooth edges, are the most respected and in demand from ROCS. It all depends on the chosen option (for example, Sensitive has pointed bristles, Edition may have smooth and ultra-soft bristles, Brackets & Ortho have a special shape for gentle massage of the mucous membrane). This feature allows you to maintain the integrity of the enamel and not injure the gums, as well as not experience discomfort with increased sensitivity of the teeth and mucous membranes.
ROCS
When referring to soft bristled products, we emphasize that their use should be appropriate for your clinical case and overall oral health. Therefore, when giving preference to this type of product, do not forget to first consult a dentist.
The price of products of this brand is quite affordable. Depending on the option, it starts from 200 rubles.
Kinds
Once upon a time, a small tree branch was used as a toothbrush. Today, this hygienic device has many modifications and differs not only in the material of manufacture, but also in the cleaning method. Models have been developed to care for sensitive teeth, braces, dentures, for smokers and coffee lovers. When choosing a toothbrush, dentists recommend first of all paying attention to the cleaning method and degree of hardness. Based on the cleaning method, models are divided into four main types:
- mechanical (classic) - the simplest option for manual teeth cleaning. They consist of a handle and a cleaning head with bristles attached to it. Such brushes can have an ergonomic or elongated handle, a flexible head connection, single-level or multi-level bristles, wear indicators and a folding body. The main advantages of such models are considered to be low cost, independence from energy sources, and reliability. The disadvantages include the need to master the correct technique for brushing teeth and the time-consuming procedure.
- electric – brushes in which the cleaning head rotates using a small electric motor hidden in the handle of the product. Suitable for caring for healthy teeth, without hyperesthesia. The advantage of such models is considered to be more thorough removal of plaque, hard deposits, and the ability to care for mucous membranes and tongue using special attachments. The downside is that such brushes, especially if there is no function for regulating the rotation speed, often injure the mucous membranes and cause headaches and nausea in particularly sensitive users.
- Ultrasonic - a type of electric brush, uses the properties of ultrasonic waves to gently clean the surface of teeth from plaque and hardened deposits. It is impossible to injure mucous membranes with such a device. But ultrasound cannot be used if there is increased sensitivity of the enamel, wearing braces, implants, or severe diseases of the cardiovascular system. Dentists recommend combining ultrasonic and mechanical models, using the former no more than 3-4 times a week.
- orthodontic – for oral care while wearing braces. Orthodontic brushes can be distinguished from regular brushes by a special groove in the center of the working area. This groove allows for thorough cleaning of the plates and structure fastenings.
- ionic - at first glance, they resemble ordinary mechanical models with even bristles, only more compact and with a metal insert on the handle. The secret lies in the titanium dioxide rod hidden inside the case. When activated, a stream of negative ions is supplied, which are capable of attracting positively charged plaque ions. The annotations indicate that such brushes not only effectively remove plaque, but also normalize the acid-base balance and enhance the effect of the paste. The downside is that the device cannot be used by smokers; together with nicotine, the ion flow causes demineralization and destruction of the enamel.
REPLACEMENT OF THE BRUSH OR NOZZLE SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT AT LEAST EVERY THREE MONTHS.
The level of stiffness of the brush depends on the diameter of the bristles. According to this criterion, five categories are distinguished:
- Sensitive (ultra-soft) – the cleaning head is covered with very thin bristles (0.1 mm in diameter). They are used only as prescribed by a doctor for periodontitis, periodontal disease, and various enamel lesions.
- Soft are used to care for baby teeth, for enamel hypersensitivity, during pregnancy, and for bleeding gums.
- Medium is the best option for daily care of healthy teeth and oral mucosa.
- Hard – designed to remove intense plaque from smokers and coffee drinkers, but can only be used if the enamel is strong and there are no problems with the mucous membranes.
- Extra-Hard (very hard) - used as prescribed by a doctor for periodic care of orthodontic systems and implants. Long-term use can seriously damage the enamel.
Rating of electric toothbrushes
This option is chosen by those who like to test in practice the work of various new products in all areas of life. Electric devices are powered by a special battery or batteries; they create vibrations that cause rapid rotation of the bristles. And the bristles, in turn, very quickly help to cope with various deposits.
The advantages of such devices: almost all of them are equipped with a timer, which will tell you when it’s time to finish the procedure. In addition, the devices help to cope with plaque without much effort. And if you want tartar to never appear on your teeth, be sure to read our article about the best toothpastes that will protect you from plaque.
Before choosing any brush, especially an electric or ultrasonic one, be sure to consult a doctor who will give advice based on the condition of your teeth and gums. Remember that there are contraindications to the use of electrical appliances: hypertrophic gingivitis, stomatitis, recent surgeries, tooth mobility resulting from periodontitis or periodontal disease.
So, let's look at what types of electric toothbrushes are in greatest demand today.
Philips Sonicare Cleancare+ HX 3292/44
It is with this brush that the manufacturer suggests starting your acquaintance with the world of electric devices, if before that you have only used the classic option for mechanical cleaning of teeth and gums. This model is equipped with the EasyStart function, which allows you to gradually get used to the device. In just two weeks you will make an easy transition and feel the difference, as well as positive changes, because... The device will help to gently lighten the enamel. After all, the special DiamondClean nozzle will allow you to naturally remove color pigments left by various drinks and foods.
Philips Sonicare Cleancare+ HX 3292/44
The device can work up to 10 days without recharging; it will easily clean all interdental spaces and at the same time will carefully care for your gums. The device is also suitable for those who have fillings, braces or other orthodontic devices or crowns in their mouths.
The cost through Philips online stores is about 3,200 rubles.
Oral-B PRO 2 2500 CrossAction
This brush can be used for almost a week without using a charger. There is also a unique feature - a pressure sensor on the tooth, which allows you to control your actions: if the pressure exceeds the permissible norm and this can lead to injury to the enamel or gums, the device automatically turns off or reduces the rotation speed. The brush itself is programmed to work for 2 minutes per hygiene procedure. In this case, every 30 seconds a timer will work, which signals the need to change the area of influence - you just have to move the head of the device further, and it will do the rest itself.
Oral-B PRO 2 2500 CrossAction
The kit includes one replaceable attachment (the device will subsequently fit almost any attachment from similar Oral-B products: 3D White, Sensi UltraThin, Sensitive Clean, Power Tip) and a case that will allow you to take the device with you during travel and business trips. Cost – from 4750 rubles.
Sonic electric CS Medica CS-262
This product is approved by the Russian Dental Association. The device runs on two AA batteries and can be used for up to six months without recharging, at least as the manufacturer assures (150 days3). What other advantages does it have:
- The model is very compact: you can take it with you on a long journey. Also included is a protective cap for the brush head,
- The device has two modes: the first is Normal – classic, which involves a standard procedure for cleansing the mouth, teeth and gums. The second Super is for thoroughly removing plaque and stone, helps lighten the enamel and returns it to its natural shade,
- manufacturer's warranty: 2 years,
- Includes 2 nozzles,
- There is an intermediate timer that allows you to orient yourself and clean your teeth as evenly as possible.
Sonic electric CS Medica CS-262
When purchasing in the company’s online store, you will also receive Asepta enamel remineralization paste as a gift. The price is very attractive, on par with other brushes of a similar category - usually about 1390 rubles.
The disadvantages include rather unusual sound vibrations, which at first can even frighten or irritate. In general, you need to get used to the device.
If there is not enough information about electric toothbrushes, then be sure to read the article about the TOP 5 best in this category.
What do they have in common?
Built-in timer and interval counting
All brushes on our list have a built-in timer for 2 minutes. Every 30 seconds of brushing, the brush signals that it is time to move on to the next area of the oral cavity.
- The CS Medica brush simply turns off after 2 minutes.
- The Smartimer feature on Philips brushes will beep 2 minutes after brushing.
- The Oral-B brush notifies you with a vibration signal: a short one to move to the next quarter of the teeth, a longer one to finish brushing.
Power type
Reviewed brushes from Philips, Oral-B, and CS-Medica are powered by a built-in nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery. The Revyline brush is powered by a lithium-ion battery (Li-Ion).
The first type of battery is considered environmentally friendly and works well at low temperatures. The second one does not have a memory effect and therefore it is possible to recharge the battery as needed. Also, lithium-ion batteries have a large capacity and can be quickly charged. But at the same time, they perform worse at low temperatures and have a limited service life.
Battery level indicator
All models have an indicator light. It starts blinking when it's time to charge the brush. The operating time from a full charge differs for each brush.
Rating of ultrasonic toothbrushes
This is another type of electric toothbrush that is suitable for use at home. Such devices act on plaque using ultrasound, and they also do an excellent job of eliminating harmful bacteria that “hid” in the mouth.
Donfeel HSD-010
This is not just a brush, but a whole universal system with compartments for storing attachments, a stationary station, and an ultraviolet lamp for disinfecting attachments. The kit includes three attachments - a universal one, for massaging the palate and gums, and for cleaning distant teeth. On the device itself, you can select a mode that will help clean your teeth without compromising your condition and health, even for people with very high enamel sensitivity.
Donfeel HSD-010
True, the price of the issue here is appropriate - the cost starts from 6,000 rubles.
Emmi-Dent 6 Platinum
The price of the device may scare many, it starts from 12,000 rubles, but perhaps its quality characteristics will pay off in the long run:
- In the kit you receive a special Emmi-dent toothpaste: the paste makes using the device even more effective. Due to ultrasound, it turns into thousands of small nano-bubbles that envelop the teeth, carefully remove plaque and destroy pathogenic bacteria,
- The ultrasonic chip itself, unlike other ultrasonic models, is built directly into the brush head, which allows it to work many times more efficiently,
- The device is equipped with a holder for nozzles,
- The device can work offline for up to 25 days.

From 11,400 ₽
This model tops the rating of toothbrushes with a sound system. Despite the high cost, it works effectively in 4 modes: whitening, cleaning and delicate cleaning, gum massage. Battery life - 3 weeks. There is a tongue cleaning brush.
Rating of ionic toothbrushes
These devices also operate on batteries or electrical energy. And ionization of the oral cavity allows you to reduce the risk of developing any inflammatory processes in the mouth on the gums and eliminate plaque by destroying pathogenic microflora.
Manufacturers of ionic brushes claim that our teeth are negatively charged, and bacterial plaque has a positive charge. As a result, plaque is attracted or magnetized to the enamel. However, ion devices with a minus sign make it possible to correct the situation, because when using them, the teeth acquire a positive charge, and plaque, accordingly, logically, sticks to the brush.
SPLAT Ion Smart Toothbrush
Manufactured in Japan. Price – from 650 rubles. Here, ions are supplied to the oral cavity through a special metal rod that passes through the head of the brush. The device is charged through batteries, but since... It is equipped with a color indicator, you will always know when it is time to replace them.
SPLAT Ion Smart Toothbrush
The kit includes two interchangeable nozzles - soft and medium-hard. The first is suitable for carefully removing plaque from sensitive teeth and gums. The second is for polishing and adding shine to the enamel. The manufacturer suggests combining them according to this principle: you need to use a soft nozzle for 20 days, then you can switch to a medium-hard nozzle. However, both attachments need to be changed after 2 months of active use.
Ion Hosoy
This is a device coated with titanium dioxide. The principle of operation is similar to the previous one: the release of negatively charged particles. Thanks to this, you get excellent antiseptic treatment of the oral cavity, fresh breath, and ideally well-groomed shiny teeth. The ions of the device have a beneficial effect on biologically active points located in the mouth, help eliminate bleeding gums and prevent gingivitis without leaving home. The battery life of the device is designed for 1.5 or 2 years. Cost – from 700 rubles.
Ion Hosoy
But this brush has a significant drawback - it is impossible to purchase a replacement brush head for it, and it will be expensive to buy a new product all the time.
Of course, the types and brands that we have listed are a drop in the bucket. The products that various manufacturers offer today can be listed endlessly, with all their advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, we will finally give you some advice: when choosing a home oral care assistant, be sure to base it not so much on fashion trends and the beauty of the products, but on their effectiveness specifically in your case. And so that the result does not disappoint, first see a dentist and get a consultation, because what is good for one may either harm another or simply not be suitable for another.

CS Medica SonicPulsar CS-131 is similar in shape to Philips brushes, but differs in technology. The bristles move quickly, but not fast enough to achieve the effect of dynamic fluid flow in the mouth, so this brush is less intense than the Philips.
Comments
I’m just choosing a new toothbrush, I change them often and it’s always a problem to find a comfortable one. The rating of toothbrushes helped, it is difficult for me to find soft brushes, and these are the ones I always look for because... I have sensitive gums and a hard brush is not suitable at all, but I don’t like very soft ones either. I noticed the Curaprox Ultra Soft brushes. Namely, the Single & Sulcular mono-beam soft model, how well does it clean your teeth? What does multi-beam mean?
Ksenia (01/29/2019 at 12:02) Reply to comment
- Ksenia, Curaprox brushes are distinguished by a patented shape of bristles and their increased number. Yes, dentists usually do not recommend using soft and especially ultra-soft brushes, but not in this case. Due to their features, Curaprox brand products do a really good job of removing plaque, including removing it from under the gums.

Quite an interesting rating of toothbrushes, I mainly use an electric toothbrush from Oral-B and a regular one from the same company, I am satisfied with the quality. But I was interested in ultrasonic toothbrushes, but the price is a bit high. But I heard that you can’t use an ultrasonic brush all the time, is that really true?
Anna (01/29/2019 at 12:18 pm) Reply to comment
- Anna, there are many more restrictions for an ultrasonic brush than for a classic electric one - installed implants, dentures, crowns, and braces.

I'm interested in ionic brushes. How do you even use them? Are there any special features?
Lika (01/30/2019 at 12:23 pm) Reply to comment
- Dear Lika. There are no fundamental differences. To clean your teeth with an ionic brush, first make sure that the brush head is attached correctly and securely. Next, you need to first moisten the bristles with water, apply a little paste (some manufacturers claim that ionic devices help clean the enamel without applying paste at all, but we still recommend using it). You need to brush your teeth for at least 2 minutes in a row, but the pressure on the brush should be minimal. Repeat the procedure daily, morning and evening.

In my opinion, the Radius Original toothbrush is a bit expensive, why such a price? Because of the unusual shape or some special composition of the plastic? It does not deserve to be included in the ranking of the best toothbrushes.
Ekaterina (02/03/2019 at 22:24) Reply to comment
I read the rating of the best toothbrushes and immediately became interested in ultrasonic brushes. I brush normally, twice a day, but still tartar forms on my lower front teeth. Do these brushes help prevent its occurrence?
Yana (02/04/2019 at 01:09 pm) Reply to comment
This is the best rating of toothbrushes that I have ever seen. Basically I always use Colgate Premier or Oral-B PRO-EXPERT All in One. But recently I’ve been thinking about switching to electric ones. Is it really worth it and what is the difference between regular and electric toothbrushes? Are they really that good?
Christina (02/04/2019 at 17:24) Reply to comment
I constantly look at the ratings of the best toothbrushes before buying a new brush, and this happens every month. Is there any point in buying a “replica” or will it be far from the original?
Sveta (02/04/2019 at 18:02) Reply to comment
The rating of the best toothbrushes is headed by many companies that I have never heard of for the first time. If they are really that good, you should probably order them online. Does the quality of teeth cleaning still depend more on the brush or the toothpaste?
Olga (02/04/2019 at 18:12) Reply to comment
I’m used to trusting my own experience, so I have my own personal rating of toothbrushes. So far, I haven’t found a better budget and practical Colgate brush. I take medium hardness: it cleans well, there are ridges to clean the tongue. What's the point of paying more for a more expensive brand?
Olga (02/12/2019 at 10:20 am) Reply to comment
The rating of the best toothbrushes has become quite expected, but no matter how I go to the store, they are not there... if you order online, is there a chance of stumbling upon a fake? Many people want a good brush)
Anna (02/12/2019 at 01:36 pm) Reply to comment
The rating of the best toothbrushes is headed, of course, by Radius Original, I’ve been dreaming of buying it for a long time, but I can’t find it (Colgate “Premier” is good, but if you buy another brush from Colgate, the result will be different?

Types of toothbrushes
All toothbrushes can be divided into two large groups. The first is manual or manual, i.e. cleaning depends on hand movements; You regulate the pressure and direction yourself. The second group operates from a power source, it can be a battery or an accumulator, and has a certain type of rotation of the bristles. Here we can distinguish between sound and ultrasonic. When giving preference to an ultrasonic device, pay attention to the power and level of rigidity. Everyone can make mistakes when choosing, so consult your dentist, as such devices can destroy crowns and fillings.
A few nuances to pay attention to when choosing:
- The shape and size of the head (approximately 2.5 cm long), which should be round in shape.

- The presence of additional functions will help improve the quality of the procedure, for example, pressure sensors, timer, position indicator.

How to choose the right product
Brushing your teeth should only bring joy and not cause any discomfort during hygiene procedures. What to look for when choosing the best electric toothbrushes? First of all, you need to pay attention to the following nuances:
- Construction type. All electric brushes are divided into three categories: mechanical, sonic and ultrasonic. The first type is the most common, it has a circular work area that is capable of circular and reciprocating movements. The second type works by reproducing a sound frequency that activates the bristles. This allows you to clean hard-to-reach places in the oral cavity and protect the enamel from abrasion. The third option is a continuation of the development of the previous device, but has higher power and efficiency. The ultrasonic brush has an increased vibration speed, which has a positive effect on eliminating pathogenic microflora that appears on the teeth.
- Type of stubble. Devices with medium and soft bristles have become widespread. The first type is very flexible and penetrates well into the spaces between teeth, effectively removing plaque. The second type is indicated for people with gum disease and children with a delicate oral surface. As for the length of the bristles, everything is simple here - for children it is 20 - 25 mm, and for adults it can reach about 30 mm. The fiber bundles for the best electric toothbrushes are arranged in four rows.
- Work item size. The dimensions of the brush head should range from 25 to 30 mm. These are the optimal sizes, thanks to which you can thoroughly clean the oral cavity and treat hard-to-reach areas of the outer teeth.
