I had used a normal one for years.

Last year my dentist strongly suggested I make the switch, and it is a notably better end result. The electric brush reaches into more nooks and crannies in less time, alerts me when exerting too much pressure and has a general timer function which is very handy.

I was hesitant to get one at first but the investment is well worth it.

I was always in camp manual, but my dentist adviced me a couple of years ago to switch to electric.

As I got older the wear and tear on my gums was showing. As you might know gums don't grow back or recover very well. I was putting more wear on my gums than necessary by manual brushing, even with me taking care not to brush too hard. An electric brush can get the job done without putting undue pressure or wear on my gums. It alerts me if I brush too hard, go too slow or too fast.

My dental health is excellent (for being an old man) and my dentist alerted me before it became a problem. Recently went for a checkup and he showed me how good my gums were looking, happy to have made the switch.

I've always used one as a child, but haven't had one since I moved out a few years ago. Now I bought one for myself a few days back. Idk what it is exactly but it does really feel like I'm giving myself a deep clean instead of smearing around the stuff on my teeth. Of course that's exaggerated, but if you're a bit lazy like me you should try one. I got mine on sale for 20 bucks, so its not like its super expensive.
