The link between oral and overall health is at the heart of GUM's approach to prevention, with the brand's expanding line of home care solutions designed to deliver gentle yet effective cleaning tailored to patients’ individual needs. For many patients, the GUM Sonic Powered Toothbrush is the perfect example of this approach.

 

Nestled in a product category where many comparable powered brushes cost several times more, the GUM Sonic Powered Toothbrush stands out as a sleek, comfortable, and ergonomic option. With features that appeal to both dental professionals and their patients, it delivers an affordable way to keep plaque under control.

 

An Effective & Economical Choice

 

“The GUM Sonic Powered Toothbrush is better than a manual toothbrush, yet is more economical and a simpler version of the more expensive brands, without all the bells and whistles,” shared Kathy Anderson, RDH, in Rogers, MN. “It also works better than the cheaper, battery-operated electric toothbrushes. It’s a good alternative for patients who don’t want to spend a lot on the expensive brands. For a powered toothbrush, it’s affordable.”

 

Reaching 45 times deeper below the gumline, and hitting plaque with 12,000 sonic vibrations per minute, the GUM Sonic Powered Toothbrush breaks up and thoroughly removes plaque. In fact, it is 50% more effective at plaque removal and interproximal reach than traditional manual toothbrushes.*

 

“I appreciate the slim, lightweight design, and also the soft head,” shared April Curtis, RDH, in Colorado Springs, CO. “I think I could recommend this brush for my patients who have recession and abfraction.”

 

Dual-Action Sonic Power

 

Combining dual-action sonic motion with soft, bi-level tapered bristles, the GUM Sonic Powered Toothbrush is designed to effectively yet gently clean between teeth, on the enamel, and below the gumline.

 

With a handle that includes 3 colored rings for personalization, the GUM Sonic Powered Toothbrush uses less plastic than similar toothbrushes.** Available in black or white, the brush uses 1 AAA battery, and features a cord-free and portable design.

 

“It’s got a decent grip and it’s easy to hold with soft bristles, just as I like them to be, and has a better bristle/brush shape,” Anderson said. “It’s not overly loud and the vibration is less harsh. I like that it’s easy to use, easy to change the battery, and it’s fairly lightweight.”
