Kids Sonic Toothbrush

Yes! The differences between the original and the kids plastic brush is a slightly smaller brush head with fewer bristles to make it easier to go tooth by tooth on smaller teeth, and a slim handle that's a little easier to grip. Both brushes are safe for kids and adults, so it really comes down to your personal preference.

quip Kids combines the low cost, light weight, and simplicity of a manual brush with the guiding features and fresh feel of an electric. Positives we share with many electrics are soft nylon bristles, sensitive vibrations, 2-minute built-in timer, and 30-second pulses. Improvements we made are a longer 3-month battery life, better value (from $25), and affordable brush heads. We also ditched the extra modes, wires, and clunky chargers you don’t need to make quip perfect for every day, everywhere.

quip Kids is powered by the same regular or rechargeable batteries as other electric brushes (AAA in our case). The difference with quip is its removable AAA battery that lasts for up to 3 months. Other electrics with locked-in batteries may force you to keep a useless brush even if they stop working, or simply add expense with a separate charging stand. But remember, the efficacy of your toothbrush isn’t defined by power itself, but by how well you follow a proper brushing routine.

quip Kids has a smaller brush head with fewer bristles — perfect for smaller mouths and growing smiles. It’s designed for kids, but some adults prefer it too, especially for reaching tight spots.

Kids can start using an electric toothbrush at age 3, with adult supervision recommended until age 8. Individual child preferences and professionals recommendations may apply. Electric toothbrushes have been shown to help disrupt the biofilm, spread paste, and help remove plaque effectively. As a parent, it’s essential to be part of this daily oral care routine, and to provide ongoing instructions and demonstrations as your child is building dexterity and proper brushing habits. Lead by example, and you’ll be one big brushing family in no time.
