Head type

The shape of the head directly affects its characteristics and cleaning efficiency. This parameter must be considered in conjunction with the cleaning technology.

round. Round brush heads are more commonly used on electric toothbrushes with reciprocating brushing technology. This shape allows you to increase the efficiency of cleaning hard-to-reach places (interdental space, for example), and is also considered one of the best options for sensitive teeth. But at the same time, the area of the brush itself is small, and therefore the process of brushing your teeth takes more time.

oval. The most familiar shape of a toothbrush head, well known to users from classic, non-electric toothbrushes. Offers more surface area and more intensive treatment of the teeth, but the treatment is rougher and may not be the best option for sensitive teeth. However, the latter applies to toothbrushes with reciprocating sweeping technology, while models with sonic cleaning technology do not have these drawbacks at all.

combined. These heads are formed from two parts: one is round and the other is oval. Thus, the manufacturer tries to combine the advantages of two different types. Such a solution is not very popular, electric toothbrushes are practically not equipped with such nozzles as regular ones, but they can always be...purchased as an additional, removable nozzle.

Application

Depending on the design, different heads for electric toothbrushes can be used for different tasks. Usually, the versatility of toothbrushes is achieved by just the right set of nozzles.

— Daily brushing (2D). This toothbrush head can be a good solution for routine, daily brushing. Provides the movement of the bristles according to one of the above technologies: reciprocating-rotating, reciprocating-sweeping, sonic or ultrasonic.

— Whitening. The nozzle is designed to whiten teeth, remove dense plaque, restore natural colour and shine. But it is important to understand that such a procedure is associated with intensive processing, which can adversely affect tooth enamel, and therefore it is recommended to use specialized nozzles for whitening.

— Deep brushing. It implies the possibility of intensive cleaning of hard-to-reach places, such as braces, implants or interdental spaces. Note that the features of the implementation of this function may differ depending on the specific nozzle model.
