What ÉclatDent actually offers
Eight targeted toothpastes — coffee and tea, tobacco, charcoal, coconut, breath, sensitivity, radiance — on a common base: 1450 ppm fluoride, abrasivity selected below RDA 70, no peroxide. A toothpaste lifts surface stains; it does not change the natural shade of the tooth, and we sell neither strips nor whitening kits.
To choose by cause, the guide “Which toothpaste should I choose?” settles it in two minutes; to check a tube’s abrasivity, our RDA index guide gives the values with their source.

What neither brush does for you
The comparison above pits technologies against each other; what remains to be said is that they clean about as well, and about as badly, if the technique is wrong. An electric brush, sonic or oscillating-rotating, is used differently from a manual one: you do not scrub. You place the head on the tooth, bristles tilted slightly towards the gum, let it work for a few seconds, then move it tooth by tooth, gliding rather than going back and forth. The first reflex of new users is to reproduce the back-and-forth of a manual brush: it is both useless and the surest way to irritate the gums.
Pressure is the other variable that the machine does not fully correct. The pressure sensors on high-end models warn you, but they do not hold your hand back; a sonic brush without a sensor is guided by feel, and the right cue is simple: if the bristles flatten, you are pressing too hard. The neck of the tooth, where tooth meets gum, is the area that pays for repeated hard brushing; this article on brushing too hard shows what it damages, and why gentleness cleans as well as force. The two-minute timer, present on both brands, is the only truly useful automation: it stops you from finishing too early.
Finally, neither of them gets between the teeth. The surfaces that touch each other make up a significant share of the tooth area, and no vibration or oscillation reaches them. That is where the plaque and discolouration settle that are later, wrongly, blamed on the brush. Floss, interdental brushes or a water flosser finish the job in a few minutes in the evening; our five-minute interdental routine explains how to go about it. The brush matters, but the difference between two smiles is more often down to technique and those five minutes than to the brand.

Your questions about Fairywill and Oral-B
Does a sonic brush clean as well as an oscillating one?
Yes, provided you brush two minutes, twice a day. Both technologies remove plaque better than a manual brush; the sonic one is gentler on gums, the oscillating one more incisive tooth by tooth. The difference is mostly in how regularly you brush.
Which brush for sensitive gums?
A soft-bristle sonic brush, such as the Fairywill D7 or E11, with light pressure: it is pressure, not vibration, that irritates the gum line. A “gentle” mode helps in the first weeks.
How often should the head be changed?
Every three months, or as soon as the bristles splay, on both brands. Fairywill-compatible heads are sold in packs of 4, 8 or 10, at about €1.50 per head.
