Article Synopsis
  • - This literature review examines the effectiveness of power toothbrushes (PTBs) versus manual toothbrushes (MTBs) in reducing plaque, improving gingival health, and removing stains across various populations, especially the elderly and those with intellectual disabilities.
  • - Advanced technologies in PTBs, like oscillating-rotating and high-frequency sonic mechanisms, are highlighted for their potential to enhance oral hygiene, with the review synthesizing studies from 2000 to 2024 found in major databases.
  • - The findings suggest that PTBs generally perform better than MTBs in promoting oral health, although their benefits for special populations are notable but less pronounced, indicating the need for further research into usability and reliability.
