Toothbrush. Anything you'll use comfortably will do the job.

I have to disagree. A good electric toothbrush makes a big difference, personally.

Sonicare might be expensive but it leaves my teeth feeling cleaner. It's like having that perfectly smooth clean feeling after a dentist visit every day. No way I'll ever go back to manual scrubbing like some sort of troglodyte.

My dentists visits improved dramatically after getting a sonicaire

It can, yes, but even a cheap toothbrush used properly will do the job. No need to buy brand name when the store brand will do.

This is a miopic viewpoint. It may be good enough for you but not everyone's gums/teeth are the same. Some people are predisposed to gum disease and using a good electric toothbrush helps immensely.

Electric toothbrushes with the rotating head collect germs behind the brush head. Enjoy your tasty germ colonies..

I always clean my brush after use. Take off the top rinse and completely dry whole brush
