“Are electric toothbrushes better to clean dental crowns?”
I am a 55 year old female. I want to know if electric toothbrushes are better to clean dental crowns?

Yes, many electric toothbrushes are better. Sonicare comes to mind. Patients need crowns because their teeth were affected by lack of care, bad, worn fillings or decay, other factors can be the cause as well. Do not over brush with an electric brush, "guide" it to massage your gums and clean your teeth, use less toothpaste.
Yes in pretty much every case an individual will do a better job with an electric tooth brush than a manual one. I know how to clean my teeth and I prefer an electric one because the vibrations will kill bacteria ahead of the tips of the brush.

Electric brush vs manual toothbrush: Both can work well if you follow directions and know how to use an electrical toothbrush, the angles necessary, and the time required, vs. the angle of a manual brush in which bristles need to penetrate at a 45-degree angle! Have your dentist near you evaluate your oral hygiene condition, and he will be able to tell you based on your current condition which one will be beneficial to you!

Electric toothbrushes are designed to provide brushing motions to make cleaning teeth at home more thorough and efficient. Many have built-in timers to assist in brushing and some find the larger handle (that accommodates the battery and controls) easier to manage and hold. Excellent results can also be accomplished with a regular, inexpensive manual toothbrush. All toothbrush methods will only clean those surfaces that they are able to touch and scrub, so the user needs to get the bristles to touch every surface possible and get it clean. Crowns are similar to teeth and are cleaned using the same exact methods as regular, non-restored teeth.
