Save up to 50% on the best electric toothbrushes as well as essentials like replacement brush heads and dental floss

Investing in the best electric toothbrush deals is a win-win. Not only can you enhance your oral hygiene routine, but you can also save a significant chunk of money if you find a good discount. 

For example, the Oral-B Genius X (opens in new tab) (a mightily impressive product that secured the top spot during our in-house tests to find the best electric toothbrushes (opens in new tab) ) is currently down 50% on Amazon (opens in new tab) , taking its price from $199.99 to just $99.99. 

But is it really worth splashing the cash to upgrade your old brush (withering bristles and all) for a shiny new model, and are electric toothbrushes better than manual toothbrushes (opens in new tab) ? Well, we think so, yes. 

The consensus among dentists is that electric toothbrushes are more effective than manual models at removing plaque and keeping your teeth and gums as healthy as possible. They also tend to come with a range of fancy features, such as timers to ensure you're brushing for long enough and sensors to tell you when you're applying too much pressure. 

One drawback is that they usually cost considerably more than their manual counterparts – that's where we come in. We've rounded up some of the best electric toothbrush deals on Amazon right now, as well as discounted essentials like dental floss and replacement brush heads, so you shop efficiently and effectively in your search for a new brush.
