“…A subject‐level meta‐analysis of studies up to 3 months provided support for the use of OR‐PTB over HFS‐PTB to improve plaque control and gingival health 11 . The other review provided some evidence that OR‐PTB might remove more plaque and reduce the number of bleedings sites better than other PTB, specifically, HSF‐PTB 12 . Taken all this evidence together, the recommendation from the present review is that when given a choice between an OR‐PTB and an HFS‐PTB, the OR‐PTB should at first be considered.…”

“…However, this difference was small, and the clinical importance is unclear. 10 Recently, two systematic reviews 11,12 have been published on the effect of PTBs with an OR vs a HFS mode of action. However, one review was based on data published from 2007 to 2017 and limited to RCTs involving OR toothbrushes from a single manufacturer.…”

“…However, one review was based on data published from 2007 to 2017 and limited to RCTs involving OR toothbrushes from a single manufacturer 11 . The other review only included RCTs published from January 2009 through March 2019 12 . Currently, no systematic review has included data from the days of the development of the PTBs till the present, which prompted the need for a systematic review of the literature to evaluate the effect of single brushing studies of PTBs with an OR‐PTB vs an HFS‐PTB mode of action on plaque removal.…”

Aim To establish the effect of a single‐brushing exercise on dental plaque removal using an oscillating‐rotating power toothbrush (OR‐PTB) as compared to a high‐frequency sonic power toothbrush (HFS‐PTB). Materials and Methods The MEDLINE‐PubMed and Cochrane‐CENTRAL databases were searched up to September 2019. The inclusion criteria contained (randomized) controlled clinical trials involving healthy adult participants brushing with an OR‐PTB as compared to an HFS‐PTB. Plaque index (PI) scores were evaluated after a single‐brushing exercise. Results A total of 15 publications were included, representing 34 comparisons, of which 8 were professional brushing exercises and 26 participant brushing exercises. The potential risk of bias was estimated to be low. In the overall descriptive analysis of 34 comparisons, 19 comparisons showed a statistically significant difference in favour of the OR‐PTB and 4 in favour of the HFS‐PTB. The meta‐analysis using the professional brushing study design showed a significant difference of means (DiffM) in favour of the OR‐PTB (PI score) (DiffM 0.19; P < .0001) (95% CI [013; 0.25]). In those studies where the participants brushed themselves, the data were inconclusive. PI scores showed no difference between the two brushes (P = .15), while one plaque index (the Rustogi Modified Navy plaque index) indicated significant favour for the OR‐PTB (DiffM 0.06; P = .002) (95% CI [0.02; 0.09]). Conclusion Based on the estimated evidence profile, there is moderate certainty of evidence of a very small but significant beneficial effect on plaque removal after a single‐brushing exercise with the OR‐PTB over the HFS‐PTB.

This paper presents a combination of theoretical and experimental techniques applied to characterize the bristle motion, forces, and related vertical translation for a novel electric toothbrush design with a linear drive system. Results of the theoretical description, based on a single filament, were successfully compared with laboratory-based investigations: force measurements and high-speed video analysis, and tracking the toothbrush motion. This work describes the vertical translation induced in the toothbrush head, of up to 250 μm, when the toothbrush bristles are applied against a contact surface at brushing loads of approximately 1 N to 2.5 N. Using these techniques, including Fast-Fourier transform analysis, it is shown that the vertical motion of the head is composed of the driving frequency and its harmonics.
