The Philips Sonicare Diamond Clean is one of our favorite electric toothbrushes, proven to reduce gingivitis and improve gum health.

At 62,000 brush strokes per minute, the pulsating action removes bacteria more effectively than manual brushing.

This toothbrush is great for patients suffering from gingivitis, periodontal disease, and sensitivity. It’s also an excellent choice for those who wear orthodontics, effectively cleaning all the nooks and crannies in your appliance.

We also love these awesome features:

• A 2-minute timer to encourage adequate brushing time
• Pressure sensors to prevent you from brushing too hard

This classic Sonicare Basic electric toothbrush pulses at 31,000 brush strokes per minute, removing bacteria and reducing inflammation more effectively than manual brushing. Great for:

We especially love the 2-minute timer to ensure optimal brushing time. It comes in two colors, black and white.

Flossing at least once a day reduces bacteria between teeth that lead to cavities, gingivitis, periodontal disease, and bad breath. For patients who prefer string floss, we LOVE Cocofloss! Here are a few reasons why:

• The interwoven material of this floss is extra-strong, minimizing annoying shredding
• It comes in fun flavors like coconut, strawberry, orange, mint, chocolate, and vanilla
• The coconut oil and fruit oils are incorporated into the floss for an added antimicrobial effect, improved aroma, and taste
• Cocofloss makes flossing more fun, which means you’re more likely to stick to the habit
