I use the spinbrush with salt toothpaste after having used an electric one. Found that the electric was harsher on the teeth. Also used a waterpic and found one at CVS that is portable, battery operated and only $25 (it is a cvs brand). It is fabulous and does a better job I think than the electric waterpic. I like it because it isn't so hard on the gums and still flushes out the stuff. Still have to floss. Also have the Oral B flosser which is also useful. For me Oil pulling in the morning has reduced alot of plaque buildup and brushing with Baking Soda and Apple Cider Vinegar which was recommended by a periodontist. Finally found a hygienist and after a 2yr gap, I didn't have as much plaque as I expected so something must be working.
