Damaging Effects of Plaque Buildup
Plaque build-up is one of the most common causes of dental disease and damage. Plaque consists of bacteria, some of which can cause damage to the tooth's hard enamel surface. This damage is known as dental caries or cavities.  If this decay is not removed it can eventually lead to more serious problems with your teeth and mouth.

Benefits of a Manual Toothbrush
Many people prefer a manual toothbrush because it is cheaper and feels more natural.  A manual brush can also be easier to travel with, as it doesn't require any external power source.

Benefits of an Electric Toothbrush
An electric brush moves quickly enough to clean between teeth and hard-to-reach areas, resulting in a more thorough clean.   Electric toothbrushes are also more ergonomic, as they provide different types of bristles or heads for different people.
