A 2005 independent review concludes that the oscillating-rotating power technology, pioneered by Oral-B, is superior to manual toothbrushing, reducing plaque and gingivitis.



This independent, systematic review concluded:

"Brushes that worked with a rotation oscillation action removed more plaque and reduced gingivitis more effectively than manual brushes in the short and long-term....No other powered brush designs were consistently superior..."1



The 2005 independent systematic review
also found:

Rotation-oscillation toothbrushes, like the
     ProfessionalCare 7000, were found to
     consistently reduce plaque and gingivitis
     better than manual toothbrushes in the
     short and long-term.

No other form of power toothbrush
     reviewed by Cochrane in 2005, including
     sonic, proved to be consistently better
     than a manual toothbrush in reducing
     plaque and gingivitis.

Power toothbrushing is as safe as manual
     toothbrushing.
