Children's

This attachment can be used for children's toothbrushes. As you know, children's teeth need softer brushing than adult teeth. Heads for kids are specially designed with this fact in mind. On top of that, they tend to have a smaller head size and a brighter design that the kid should love.

Number of nozzles

The product package may contain multiple nozzles, typically in sets of 2 or even 3 or more. These nozzles can either be identical or serve different purposes, such as daily cleaning, whitening, or gum massage. It's crucial to carefully read the product description, keeping in mind that it reflects the standard factory equipment. However, stores may make modifications, such as adding extra components to the basic package with just 1 nozzle. Therefore, it's advisable to confirm the number and type of nozzles with the store manager before making your purchase.

Head type

The shape of the head directly affects its characteristics and cleaning efficiency. This parameter must be considered in conjunction with the cleaning technology.

round. Round brush heads are more commonly used on electric toothbrushes with reciprocating brushing technology. This shape allows you to increase the efficiency of cleaning hard-to-reach places (interdental space, for example), and is also considered one of the best options for sensitive teeth. But at the same time, the area of the brush itself is small, and therefore the process of brushing your teeth takes more time.

oval. The most familiar shape of a toothbrush head, well known to users from classic, non-electric toothbrushes. Offers more surface area and more intensive treatment of the teeth, but the treatment is rougher and may not be the best option for sensitive teeth. However, the latter applies to toothbrushes with reciprocating sweeping technology, while models with sonic cleaning technology do not have these drawbacks at all.

combined. These heads are formed from two parts: one is round and the other is oval. Thus, the manufacturer tries to combine the advantages of two different types. Such a solution is not very popular, electric toothbrushes are practically not equipped with such nozzles as regular ones, but they can always be...purchased as an additional, removable nozzle.

Head wear indicator

These nozzles provide the ability to timely notify the user of the need to replace the nozzle. Usually, this is realized through the use of a special colour of the bristles, which discolors along with the general wear of the nozzle. Thanks to this, the user can monitor the condition of the nozzle and replace it in time.

Compatibility

Before purchasing, it's crucial to check the list of electric toothbrushes or irrigators (as mentioned in the "Type" section) with which the nozzle is compatible. It's worth noting that being from the same brand doesn't automatically ensure compatibility between the toothbrush and the selected nozzle. This aspect should be carefully reviewed before making a purchase decision.
