Best Travel Electric Toothbrush
Travel Fashion Girl help! A reader asks:
I would love to be able to travel with an electric toothbrush as that’s what I use at home and a manual just isn’t the same (seriously I feel like I have to scrub my teeth with a manual….yuck). Has anyone got one they would recommend?
Dental hygiene is just as important when you’re traveling as it is at home. Pack the perfect electric toothbrush for your vacation so you are always prepared with your sparking travel smile!
On a recent trip I made to Europe, I discovered an unexpected beauty hack when I upgraded my electric toothbrush. It can go two weeks without charging, so I don’t have to pack a charger, saving me space and time because it’s one less thing to worry about in my beauty routine while on the go. On trips that are under ten days, I leave the charger at home.
Here’s what our readers say are their favorite electric toothbrush for travel!

Oral-B Pro 5000 Smartseries Electric Toothbrush
Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Power Electric Toothbrush
The Oral-B Pro 5000 electric toothbrush comes with bluetooth communication between the brush and your smartphone providing real-time information on brushing habits, helping to keep your teeth white and clean.
I recently upgraded my electric toothbrush a few months back to an Oral-B Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush Pro 5000. After extensive research, I found an electric toothbrush that was more powerful than the one I had but not overpriced with all kind of features I didn’t need. I’m unbelievably satisfied with my choice. It is more powerful and not overpriced charging me for features I don’t need.

Another reader shared, “I have one! I found the holder/lid to very convenient for travel and the toothbrush itself is very effective.” One reader added, “I absolutely love it.”
International Adapter for Multiple Countries
Universal Travel Adapter
Note: If you choose to travel with the charger for your travel electric toothbrush then you will need to pack a travel adapter.
A travel adapter enables you to plug your non dual-voltage electronics into international outlets. Not all countries use the same type of plug so I recommend you buy an international adapter like this.

Something I have wondering about- Are rechargeable toothbrushes only allowed in carry-on bags? I ask because of the lithium battery.
Hi Cassie, thank you for your question. If the battery is lithium, you’ll have to carry at least the battery with you in a bag to comply with TSA requirements: https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/lithium-batteries-more-100-watt-hours You may also find this article helpful: https://www.faa.gov/hazmat/packsafe/more_info/?hazmat=7 Hope this helps answer your question.
