Product news Oral B Tri-Zone
Oral-B has introduced “TriZone”, a new way of electric (power) tooth brushing that encourages even the most reluctant patients to switch from manual to power.
Power brushes are better than manual. This has been supported by a multitude of in vitro- and in vivo- studies since Oral-B first introduced their oscillating-rotating toothbrush in 1991. The Cochrane Collaboration meta-analyses quoted: “Rotation- oscillation powered toothbrushes remove plaque and reduce gingivitis more than manual brushes in the short and long term.”
The new TriZone is a manual brush head design combined with
Dentalcare.com
an electric drive still performing 3D, but with a sweeping rather than oscillating-rotating action.
