Power toothbrushes, gender, and dentin hypersensitivity

Clinical Oral Investigations, 2000
Power toothbrushes require less force for plaque removal than manual brushes. In addition, in vitro studies have indicated that brushing with low force could occlude patent dentin tubules by formation of a smear layer. Hence, lessening the force necessary to remove plaque may reduce dentin hypersensitivity.
