Galc Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 My daughter is 4 and has cohlear implant (Sonata, OPUS 2) and she got Philips Sonicare toothbrush. I am kindly asking you whether it take a risk of implant/processor damage with use of such toothbrush? Thanks for your help in advance.

HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted March 16, 2013 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 good evening, I wouldnt imagine that there would be a problem using an electric toothbrush. I get my haircut VERY short shaved on the sides. my barber uses an electric razor. that vibrates and it passes right over my implants and I dont have any issues. That being said, your doctor knows her health history and would be a better person to answer that question. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzcohen Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 My 10-year old son has bilateral Med El CIs, and he prefers using his electric toothbrush (to a regular one). He's never indicated that it bothers him in any way....and in fact brushes longer using the electric one! Hope that helps, Suzanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomHogan Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 My son also likes using electric toothbrush. So far he has no complaint about it. He's always excited brushing his teeth with it. http://www.thegoodgears.com/Electric-Toothbrush/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
