If you want to up your dental hygiene routine, you might want to consider an electric toothbrush.

Experts have been telling us for many years that an electric toothbrush is much more effective than a manual brush for a number of reasons, one being they rid our mouths of up to 99% plaque leading to healthier teeth and gums.

And with so many options on the market in 2024, the search for the best electric toothbrush can get a little overwhelming.

That's why we’ve done some of the hard work for you and rounded-up some fantastic options from top selling brands which are available to buy from retailers Boots, Amazon and John Lewis - so keep reading.
