AutoBrush® Kids
Frequently Asked Questions
Dentists everywhere say these don't work! So, what makes autobrush different?
It’s tricky. Most dentists are familiar with u-shaped brushes as a category, rather than our exact model. We are the only u-shaped toothbrush with a patented nylon brush head (as opposed to silicone) with clinical studies to back our claims. In our study with Salus research, they found autobrush removed plaque 27X better than a traditional brush.
Why are other "u-shaped" toothbrushes cheaper on Amazon?
Cheaper? Yep, but you get what you pay for. Many of those lower-priced “u-shaped” toothbrushes on Amazon feature silicone bristles, which is proven to be less effective than not brushing at all. In contrast, autobrush uses patented nylon bristles—clinically proven (in three separate clinicals) to clean your teeth 27x better and reduce gingivitis up to 45%. It might cost a bit more, but it’s an investment in your future oral health.

Is autobrush recommended for kids with disabilities?
autobrush is the best toothbrush on the market to help people with disabilities brush independently, particularly for kiddos with muscle weakness, lack of mobility, reduced motor function, and sensory disorders. We’ve heard rave reviews from customers with autism spectrum disorders, cerebral palsy, and more.
Clinical Study
A study by SALUS Research found autobrush removed 26.6x more plaque than ADA approved manual brushes!
The autobrush outperformed a traditional toothbrush in every surface, but the difference was nothing short of extraordinary in cavity-breeding hard-to-reach areas like the backs of the teeth and along the gumline.
Parents & Dentists Love autobrush!
“This is a really great toothbrush to get your kids on the routine of oral care. It makes it fun! It makes it exciting! The angle of the bristles and the more powerful vibrations are really going to go far into getting the teeth clean.”

“The autobrush for Kids really takes the chore out of brushing. I think this is great for all children because it makes brushing super fun. It's a great motivator. It can also be really good for those with special needs or sensory issues."

Abby is my 6 year old daughter who was born with Cerebral Palsy. CP affects all aspects of Abby's Life. I have implemented tools like autobrush for Kids to increase her independence! We got our first toothbrush in September of 2021 and the 1st week we got it my daughter started brushing her teeth 4 times a day all by herself & completely independently, which is such a win for us as parents.
autobrush is really helping me instill good dental hygiene habits in my kids! It is also dentist approve which is a huge relief. We have tried a few other kinds of 360 toothbrushes from other companies and they kept breaking or losing the charge until they eventually just died. We decided to just spend the money on the big name and you can tell right away that the quality blows everyone else out of the water.
We've tried all versions of autobrush and this is the best. I've been following this brand for a long time since I first heard about them a few years ago. Saw the ups and downs and positive and negative reviews and I've been waiting for a brush head with nylon bristles. Now they have one and it's been worth the wait! I whip this thing around in my mouth for thirty seconds and I get that nice clean feeling on my teeth.
Prior to the autobrush, we would bribe our 4 year old to brush her teeth. She used to scream and throw fits when it was time to brush her teeth. Now, she wakes up and immediately brushes her teeth without hesitation. Not only does she love it, but it is cleaning her teeth better than her previous mechanical toothbrush. Love this product!

Is autobrush recommended for kids with disabilities?
autobrush is the best toothbrush on the market to help people with disabilities brush independently, particularly for kiddos with muscle weakness, lack of mobility, reduced motor function, and sensory disorders. We’ve heard rave reviews from customers with autism spectrum disorders, cerebral palsy, and more.
How does it work to clean the back of the teeth?
autobrush is expertly designed to cover every part of your teeth—the front AND backs. The brush head features bristles strategically positioned to reach all surfaces. To maximize effectiveness, all bristles pulse simultaneously, providing comprehensive cleaning. For best results, we recommend using a gentle circular motion when using your autobrush. This technique ensures that every nook and cranny gets the attention it deserves, leaving your whole mouth feeling fresh and clean.
Does it work with braces and other dental work?
The autobrush is safe to use on braces (and other dental work) - it won’t cause damage, and your little one will still get a great clean! Just make sure they move the brush around their mouth during the cleaning cycle to clean all surface areas around their braces.
What about the tongue?
Great point! We offer a tongue scraper. Grab one here: Tongue Scraper
Scraping the tongue is proven more effective than brushing.
What do the LED lights do? Are they safe?
We use ultra-safe red & blue LED (non-UV!!) lights to brighten teeth and support gum health. For adults, you can pair the blue light with a whitening agent (our whitening pens are a great choice) to whiten up to 6 shades brighter.
Is autobrush ADA approved?
We are making progress toward ADA accreditation. It's a lengthy and expensive process. That being said every autobrush brush head is specially designed to utilize the ADA-approved BASS brushing technique, brushing all surfaces of your teeth at a 45° angle.
How to find the right brush head size?
Finding the perfect brush head size is crucial for the best brushing experience. We recommend choosing based on the user’s age or the actual size of the mouth. Check out our detailed size chart to identify the best fit for you. If you're still unsure, don't hesitate to reach out to our customer care team at customercare@autobrush.com—we're here to help guide you!
For more information, you can view the size chart on our support page.
Can I use my own toothpaste?
Absolutely! While our specially formulated foaming toothpaste is designed to give you the best results with autobrush, we get that everyone has their favorites. Feel free to use your own toothpaste—just try to pre-foam it before brushing to make your experience even better. It’s all about making your brushing routine as effective and enjoyable as possible!
Will this make my kid lazy?
Not at all! autobrush doesn't make kids lazy—it fosters independence. It is perfect for teaching little ones to take charge of their daily routines in a fun and effective way. Using autobrush is a practical way to help manage their dental health efficiently and effectively.
What is the different between Manual, Sonic and Sonic Pro?
Let's make choosing the right autobrush both fun and easy!
For a no-fuss clean, Manual is your go-to—it's a simple, speedy way to brush teeth without batteries or charging; just add toothpaste and you're all set!
Seeking a bit more? Sonic adds a buzz to the routine with vibrations for a deeper clean, complemented by a catchy tune to zip through those 30 seconds.
And for the ultimate brushing experience, the Sonic Pro packs in all the cool features to make dental hygiene a joy, including three cleaning modes and dental-grade LED lights.
