EFFECTIVENESS OF AN ELECTRONIC TOOTHBRUSH (hyG) ON GINGIVITIS
...Finding suggest that improvements in gingivitis might be expected through charging gingivital tissue electronically in addition to mechanical plaque removal by toothbrush itself.

PILOT STUDY TO EVALUATE AN IONIC TOOTHBRUSH TO REMOVE PLAQUE
Results and conclusions:
Both plaque grading methods revealed a percent difference in favor of the Ionic Toothbrush treatment. The six selected tooth surfaces employed in the PHP index support the conclusion that the Ionic Toothbrush is superior in plaque removal to an ADA accepted brush (Butler Gum #440).

AN EFFECTIVENESS STUDY OF IONIC TOOTHBRUSH IN PLAQUE REMOVAL
The Ionic Toothbrush was much more effective in plaque removal than the ordinary toothbrush in all the subjects...The effectiveness of the Ionic Toothbrush can be expected even if there are differences in brushing techniques. The most valuable results in this study were seen at the cervical region...the hardest place to clean.

EFFECT OF IONIC TOOTHBRUSH ON PLAQUE REMOVAL
...All thirteen subjects achieved higher plaque removal with the ionic toothbrush than with the ordinary toothbrush with a high statistical significance of P<0.001. The "hard" bristles of the iontophoretic toothbrush (0.28 MM nylon filament) achieved higher plaque removal than the medium hard (0.23 MM) bristles.
< 0.001. The "hard" bristles of the iontophoretic toothbrush (0.28 MM nylon filament) achieved higher plaque removal than the madium hard (0.23 MM) bristles.
