The electronic brush fact... I don't fully agree with that, as Sonicare brushes are concerned. The Fluoride Toxicity fact is only true if "in large amounts" is added after "a fluoride containing toothpaste." Some studies have suggested that fathers kiss their children too and that they may contribute as well to their childrens' caries. Also, some children put strange objects in their mouths between the ages of zero (0) and two (2) years of age. These things may also contribute to the problem.
