Best electric toothbrushes after months of testing, from Philips to Oral-B

Best electric toothbrush overall: Philips sonicare 9400Philips’ sonicare 9400 takes the top spot as the best electric toothbrush because of its combined value and superior performance
While it’s a little expensive at full price, it routinely retails for £200 (or less) and offers thoughtful design features, such as a mess-free charging cup
In testing, its sonic pulse technology delivered the most thorough clean of all the brushes I used, leaving teeth noticeably smoother
Ultimately, the 9400 hits a sweet spot between ticking all the essential boxes (pressure sensor and timer, for example) and offering excellent cleaning power.£400 £200 from Amazon.co.ukPrices may vary
