Electric toothbrush FAQs
Why is an electric toothbrush better than a standard toothbrush?
There are several reasons why electric toothbrushes are better than regular ones. You do not have to exert yourself to get to those hard-to-reach nooks that are more prone to cavities as the smaller head and automatic motions will help in cleaning your teeth better. There is also research conducted by the Oral Health Foundation which revealed that people who use electric toothbrushes have healthier gums and less tooth decay.
With pressure sensors, different cleaning modes, timers and apps to monitor the effectiveness of your brushing, electric brushes are sure to transform your dental hygiene. In addition to the ease of using electric toothbrushes, they also come in sustainable varieties as well as in different price ranges too.
How do I dispose of my current electric toothbrush?
If your electric toothbrush is in its last few days, make sure you dispose of it correctly. Some local councils can collect electricals for recycling – by special arrangement or even with your regular waste collection. We recommend checking your local council's website for more information. For those keen, Recycle Your Electricals gives three simple steps:
Ask - Could you mend your toothbrush? Or if it’s working, maybe you could donate it to a charity.
Bag it - Find a bag to store all your unwanted electricals until your next visit to your recycling centre or electrical retailer – or until collection day if you have one. Don’t forget to take batteries out and recycle them separately if you can.
Check - Find your nearest recycling point by entering your postcode in a recycling locator.
How to shop for an electric toothbrush deal in the sales
When is Black Friday 2024?
Black Friday takes place on the 29th of November this year, across the world. But, in previous years, we've seen most sales begin a week or so before - and some even at the beginning of November (right through to Christmas). Everyone from Amazon to Robert Dyas to Currys may be offering some kind of air fryer discount across their wide range of appliance goodies.
There's also Cyber Monday (2nd December) where you can snap up even more pre-Christmas savings!
Is Black Friday or Prime Day better?
There are a wide range of deals and offers to choose from during both of these events. As shopping experts who have been browsing and curating the best deals for years across various brands of kitchen, cleaning, beauty, fashion and wellness products, we are here to help you choose from the best so you can make the most of these sale events.
Even though Amazon Prime deals are limited to products available on Amazon only, the price cuts and discounts are unparalleled on items that usually fall within a higher price range like the best air fryers, offers on hoovers or hair straighter deals.
Black Friday offers, on the other hand, span over a wide range of brands and products like the best Olay skincare products or the best mascara deals you cannot afford to miss. However, years of experience has taught us that there are hundreds of deals that start coming up and running throughout the month of November. We will be sure to keep an eye out for these and update our pages with the best offers so you don’t miss them!
How can I take part in Amazon Prime Day?
You need to be a Prime Member to access the best deals on Amazon Prime Day, but fear not, as signing up is easy. So, if you want to have access to the exclusive Amazon Prime Day deals, you can sign up to Amazon Prime at a cost of £8.99 per month, or save £12.88 by paying for a year upfront (which is £95).
Alternatively, if you don't want to pay to access the Amazon Prime Day deals, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial and cancel before the 30 days are up.
How to make sure I don't miss good deals?
If you are a Prime member, you will be receiving lots of emails about the best deals on various things such as home furnishings, beauty products, pet food and much more. However, one tip is to have a clear idea about what products you are looking for prior to the sale, so you don’t waste time looking for products on the day. It is also a good idea to add these products to your wish list, so you just have to go there and add those products to your cart on the day of the sale.
If you are looking to explore the best deals, there is also a category called ‘Deals’ in the drop down menu by the search bar which will show you the best deals for the whatever you are looking for. For instance, once you set the category as ‘Deals’, you can type in ‘electric toothbrushes’ in the search bar to see the best offers to choose from.
