Why Toothbrush Motor Speed Really Matters

Nov 11

When it comes to electric toothbrushes, speed is more than a spec—it’s what determines how effectively plaque is removed, how gentle the brush is on your gums, and even how enjoyable your daily brushing routine feels. BrushO’s 64,000 rpm high-frequency motor is designed to outperform traditional models in speed, torque, and sound—making it a leader in smart oral technology.

What Is Motor Speed in a Toothbrush?

Toothbrush motor speed is measured in rotations per minute (rpm). The higher the speed, the more vibrations or sonic movements the brush head delivers to your teeth. These rapid movements help dislodge plaque, clean between teeth, and stimulate gums for better overall oral health.

BrushO’s motor delivers 64,000 rpm—almost double that of many leading competitors—ensuring high-efficiency cleaning even in hard-to-reach areas.

 

Why 64,000 RPM Makes a Real Difference

✅ Better Plaque Removal

High-speed brushing means each tooth receives thousands of micro-cleaning actions. This breaks down plaque faster than manual brushing or low-speed electric models.

✅ More Consistent Results

With higher rpm, users don’t need to press hard to clean effectively. The brush does the work for you, maintaining consistency across brushing sessions—especially important for kids or older adults.

✅ Safer for Gums

Despite the power, BrushO’s motor works in harmony with its 200 gf·cm torque and real-time feedback system, ensuring users don’t apply excessive pressure that could harm the gums.

 

The Role of Torque: Power Behind the Speed

BrushO isn’t just fast—it’s powerful. The brush uses 200 gf·cm of torque to ensure that even at high speeds, the motor maintains a consistent force. This means better contact with tooth surfaces, fewer missed spots, and enhanced cleaning even under pressure.

 

Speed with Silence: <55 dB for a Quiet Brushing Experience

Many high-speed brushes are loud and uncomfortable. BrushO’s advanced motor redesign keeps noise levels below 55 dB, making it one of the quietest yet most powerful brushes on the market. You can brush comfortably without waking the household.

 

BrushO vs. Traditional Sonic Motors

Feature BrushO Smart Motor Traditional Sonic Motor
Motor Speed 64,000 rpm 31,000 – 40,000 rpm
Torque 200 gf·cm 100 – 120 gf·cm (avg)
Vibration Amplitude 5.6 mm 3 – 4 mm
Noise Level < 55 dB 60–70 dB
Brushing Modes 100+ Custom Modes Limited to 3–5 modes

 

Why Motor Speed Should Be a Key Buying Factor

When choosing a smart toothbrush, most consumers look at features, battery life, or app design, but often ignore motor performance. In reality, motor speed and torque directly impact:

 • Cleaning effectiveness
 • Brushing comfort
 • Noise level
 • Durability and consistency

BrushO’s next-gen motor combines top-tier performance with long-term reliability, making it the smart choice for serious oral health.

 

Conclusion: Speed That Powers Smart Health

BrushO’s second-generation motor system redefines what toothbrush speed should mean. With 64,000 rpm, advanced torque, and quiet operation, you’re not just brushing—you’re getting a clinical-grade clean at home, every day.

If you’re looking for a toothbrush that delivers more than just a vibration, BrushO’s powerful motor makes it a top-tier choice for serious results.
