My kids are still quite young, and we already struggle to keep them interested in brushing their teeth. I don’t know why children see this as a chore—I was the same way when I was little—but thankfully brands like Oral‑B make it easier for parents to win the oral care battle.
The best way to encourage consistent brushing through the tween years is to give kids a toothbrush that’s both effective and fun. Oral‑B offers excellent options, from manual brushes to electric models, that appeal to kids while delivering a thorough clean.
Children under 8 or 9 should be supervised while brushing to ensure they clean properly. Take your child to the dentist every six months for routine checkups so the dentist can monitor development and the effectiveness of their home care. Also replace toothbrushes in your household every three months to maintain peak cleaning performance and keep brushing fresh and engaging. My boys always get excited about new toothbrushes, and we notice their interest jump whenever we introduce one.
*NEW* Oral‑B Pro‑Health FOR ME Electric Powered Toothbrush
This rechargeable power toothbrush is designed with tweens in mind. It gently removes plaque and debris, even around braces, thanks to its compact, round brush head that surrounds each tooth with extra‑soft bristles to clean teeth and gums effectively.
The handle is compatible with several brush head options, allowing you to choose the best fit for your child’s needs:
- Sensitive Clean: gentle on young teeth, enamel, and gums
- Ortho Clean: specifically designed to clean around braces
- Adult FlossAction and Dual Clean brush heads are also interchangeable with the handle
A built‑in timer indicates when the dentist‑recommended two minutes of brushing has been reached, helping kids learn proper brushing duration.
