Why does it work?

Dirt won't hold up to your electric toothbrush for very long. With its motor, it goes back and forth very quickly.

The toothbrush head performs very fast U-turns, which allows it to clean in the smallest nooks and crannies.

Thanks to this double rotation system, it is remarkably efficient in cleaning even the smallest corners easily.

You can use the electric toothbrush dry, with the baking soda and vinegar mixture but also with Marseille soap, black soap or any other detergents, pastes or abrasives.
