Brushing teeth via apps: the best tools for children

Brushing teeth is easy with an app, even for children. It brings more fun to the little ones' daily routine. We will introduce you to the best mobile apps.

Brush your teeth with the app: Disney Magic Timer

• Oral-B has launched the toothbrush app "Disney Magic Timer". The advantage of this app: If you have several children, you can create a separate profile for each.
• As the name suggests, the app is about Disney characters. Every two minutes, the child gets a sticker from the Disney, Marvel and Star Wars world when cleaning. This encourages longer teeth brushing.
• Since the app does not only focus on one-off brushing, there are also milestone badges and asterisks in the integrated brushing calendar.

Odol-med3 brushing time: brushing teeth with music

• Music is much easier to do - including brushing your teeth. That is why the toothbrushing app "Odol-med3 brushing time" plays music for the child when brushing their teeth.
• However, music alone is usually not enough for the youngsters to perceive brushing their teeth as an exciting event. Therefore, you can not only choose the song, but also a character such as a funny shark and also an environment, such as the oral cavity.
• The character then dances to the music in the selected environment for two minutes, thus entertaining the child while brushing his teeth.

ZahnHelden: Clean monsters properly

• The "ZahnHelden" app not only teaches children to brush sufficiently long. It also shows how to clean properly.
• First, the KAI method is explained in a child-friendly film. The child can then check in a game whether he has understood everything correctly.
• The little ones will also enjoy cleaning themselves with this app. The cell phone's camera records the cleaning movements that the child makes. If the child is cleaning properly, little monsters will disappear from the teeth on the display.

Tooth brushing free: Not only suitable for young people

• If brushing your teeth every day is more of a must than a free program, the "Brush your teeth free" app is also suitable for you as an adult.
• If you hear messages while brushing your teeth via the app, time goes by faster.
• Children will be less able to start with it. That is why the app has a children's mode, in which the offspring laugh a good-humored tooth and a friendly toothbrush as a wallpaper when brushing their teeth. A timer specifies the time to be cleaned.
