Suri’s electric toothbrush is actually pretty great, but it’s let down by claims of repairability.

    Wooden toothbrushes are the real green option ! Get the right one and they’re entirely biodegradable.

      Electric toothbrushes are simply superior in terms of dental hygiene, no matter how well you think you brush.

        But do they lead to better outcomes ? My teeth being extra clean is irrelevant to me if I don’t get cavities either way.

        Which, afaik, can be prevented by “simply” not eating anything with added sugar. (Not so simple these days unless you cook everything yourself)
