Get serious about your kids' dental hygiene this World Oral Health Day
Auckland, New Zealand – Featuring patented Sonic Technology, the Philips Sonicare for Kids power toothbrushes are a unique alternative for parents who want to get serious about their children’s oral health.
“Many dental diseases are preventable. There are many preventative products now available including advanced toothbrushes for kids, like Sonicare” Dr. Richard Lowe, Fraser Smith Lowe Dentists, Pakuranga, Auckland. The Philips Sonicare range is proven to remove up to 100 per cent more plaque than a manual toothbrush.[2] Sonicare also sets itself apart from other electronic toothbrushes with its dynamic side-to-side cleaning action, rather than a rotating action. With over 30,000 brush strokes per minute, Sonicare power toothbrushes are proven to whiten teeth up to two shades[3] and improve gum health within 28 days.[4] The Sonicare for Kids toothbrushes are designed to be fun and engaging with colourful, interchangeable panels so kids can decorate their toothbrush. Sonicare for Kids also has different power modes for age groups 4+ and 7+. Dental tips from Dr. Richard Lowe for parents looking after their children’s oral hygiene:
