Ultrasonic toothbrush
An toothbrush with ultrasonic technology has a body similar to that of electric toothbrushes, a head like that of a manual toothbrush, and operates similarly to a sonic toothbrush. It helps keep teeth healthy thanks to its features: tartar removal, cavity prevention, and cleaning. In addition, purchasing certain models, such as Emmi ultrasonic toothbrushes, entitles you to free delivery.
What is an ultrasonic toothbrush?
A French ultrasonic toothbrush is simply a rechargeable electric toothbrush that generates ultrasound to remove dental plaque. It renders bacteria harmless using the same system as sonic toothbrushes. This type of electric toothbrush produces 96 million oscillations per minute, whereas a sonic toothbrush produces only thousands of oscillations per minute.
Ultrasonic toothbrushes are suitable for people wearing braces or dental prostheses, as well as those suffering from gingivitis. In fact, they do not exert pressure on the gums, unlike a manual toothbrush. Sonic technology prevents the brush bristles from rubbing against the gums and therefore helps prevent bleeding. With the same capabilities as dental floss, ultrasonic waves can reach even the smallest interdental spaces.
This effective and gentle brushing therefore promotes better oral hygiene. In short, like sonic and electric toothbrushes, they are used with specific toothpaste. In addition, consumer reviews attest to the effectiveness of this electric toothbrush for sensitive gums and bad breath, compared with a manual toothbrush.
How does an ultrasonic toothbrush work?
Nothing could be simpler than cleaning your teeth with an ultrasonic electric toothbrush. Unlike using a manual toothbrush, simply place the soft bristles of the brush head against your teeth, and the ultrasonic waves clean them without vibrations. In other words, it is brushing without brushing. The ultrasound (maximum power: 0.2 W) makes the toothpaste foam around the electric toothbrush bristles to promote healthier teeth.

With an ultrasonic electric toothbrush, toothbrushing can be programmed using its timer and several brushing modes. Some models can be connected to a mobile device to track their effectiveness via an app. For charging, use a glass as a charger. They are sometimes sold in packs that include accessories to make them easier to use. For example, you can benefit from a support program to help you get the hang of the Y-Brush toothbrush. The first use will therefore be gentle.
Ultrasonic toothbrushes: for healthy dental and oral hygiene
Brushing your teeth with a rechargeable ultrasonic electric toothbrush helps you maintain good oral hygiene and enjoy a lasting feeling of cleanliness. Using this type of electric toothbrush eliminates cavities, tartar, and bad breath. It stops gum bleeding because you can adjust the brush head’s sensitivity. Like sonic toothbrushes, ultrasonic toothbrushes improve drainage and lymphatic circulation in the oral system.
The best ultrasonic toothbrushes
Reviews and comparative tests indicate that the best professional ultrasonic toothbrushes come from brands such as:
- Panasonic, formerly Matsushita Electric Industrial,
- Philips Sonicare,
- Emmi-dent,
- Xiaomi…
For example, the Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4500 electric ultrasonic toothbrush provides gentle brushing with minimal vibration. With its soft brush heads, it performs 62,000 movements per minute to remove seven times more plaque than manual toothbrushes. In addition, the Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean ultrasonic toothbrush is more effective than Oral-B’s oscillating technology.
Numerous studies conducted in German laboratories prove that Emmi-dent ultrasonic toothbrushes provide good oral hygiene. In fact, the Emmi-dent professional sends nearly 1.6 million ultrasonic waves per second to clean the gums, teeth, tongue, and palate. When you move the brush across your teeth, Emmi mixes the non-abrasive toothpaste with saliva to form microbubbles capable of removing even the smallest impurities. To benefit from the advantages of the Emmi ultrasonic toothbrush, let it gently vibrate on your teeth for between 5 and 10 seconds.
Comparative tests, as well as dentists, attest to the reliability of the Xiaomi Mi Electric Toothbrush. Equipped with a high-performance ultrasonic motor, this metal-free device helps prevent corrosion. It features position-detection technology and pulsations of up to 31,000 per minute.
