Until recently, I was traveling with a good old-fashioned manual toothbrush.
It was easy, cheap, and quick to toss into my bag before departing for my next adventure.
Unlike an electric toothbrush, I didn’t have to worry about keeping it charged, or if it would cause problems at security.
I thought I had it all figured out until someone gifted me an electric toothbrush.
It was a game-changer realizing how much cleaner my mouth felt after using it.
It got all the hard to reach places, and I didn’t have to think about brushing in circles, instead I could just let the toothbrush do most of the work.
This led me to wonder, which is the best overall travel toothbrush?
I think it really will come down to preference, which is why I’ve gathered all the information you need to make an informed choice about which option is the best travel toothbrush for you.

I’m a big fan of keeping a couple of these little guys in my purse. They’re super tiny and perfect for freshening up before a hot date or important meeting.
Besides being a great everyday item, they’re also ideal to pack for quick trips.
I seem to spot this toothbrush in my friend’s apartments all the time these days.
This popular rechargeable brush is a bit of a luxury item coming in at well over a Benjamin.
However, my friends who have it say it’s well worth the investment, as their teeth have never been cleaner.
The brush has three different intensities and four different modes to alternate between to make sure you end up with the cleanest mouth possible.
My favorite feature is that it comes with a charging travel case!
This rechargeable toothbrush surrounds each tooth with bristles angled at 16 degrees. It also has an in-handle timer to help you brush for a dentist-recommended 2 minutes.
So, just charge this baby up before your trip, and you won’t have to stress!
Aside from its fun design, its snap-on vented cap makes this toothbrush the ultimate portable electronic travel toothbrush.
Online reviewers rave that besides the colorful designs, they love the light and quiet design of the product.
This a battery-operated brush, so just make sure you’ve got fresh batteries in it before hitting the road.
This is the electric toothbrush I just got, and let me tell you it’s wonderful, especially if you don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on a toothbrush.
The only downside for some is that it’s battery-powered, so you have to prepare to switch those out occasionally.
For flying, I take the batteries out of the device so there’s no risk of it accidentally getting bumped and turning on.
Oral-B has cross-action bristles which attack plaque from multiple angles while brushing.
My favorite part of this toothbrush is the gum massager and cheek cleaner that’s built into the back of the brush.
This is a toothbrush brand that I’ve used for years. They’re well made and affordable.
With its cleaning bristles and built-in polishing cups, the Colgate 360 is another popular choice for manual toothbrush users.
This is typically the brush I pick up when I don’t see the Oral-B band at the drugstore.
This foldable model features a patented antibacterial agent that maintains the hygiene of the soft bristles between uses.
The best part is that unlike other foldable models, this one comes with a built-in tongue cleaner/.
With its zero petroleum wood-based handle and vegetable-based bristles, this is one toothbrush you can feel extra proud of using.
It’s eco-friendly and free from all BPA, phthalates, lead, and latex. Plus, made in the USA and totally recyclable!
Colgate’s foldable travel toothbrush comes in multiple colors and is compact for traveling.
The cover clicks in place when folded, which keeps your bristles protected, but can make it a bit tough to open.
These cute little toothbrush covers come in packs of 4 with a variety of color options.
They snap easily around your toothbrush bristles and have a vent to allow the brush to dry.
The ISusser brand cases are my go-to anytime I’m packing a good old-fashioned toothbrush.
I really like that it encases the entire toothbrush, while still providing small holes for ventilation.
ProCase produces this hard case to house electric toothbrushes with ease.
The elastic strap holds your device in place, and it has mesh pockets for any cords or brush heads.
As someone who’s a bit terrified of the dentists’ office, writing this was probably the most I’ve actively thought about investing in the right dental hygiene products.
It can be easy, especially when traveling frequently to remember your toothbrush at the last second, or just put up with whatever cheap toothbrush you’ve purchased at the airport.
Your dental hygiene is more important than being just an afterthought.
Plan, weigh your options, and you’ll find the best travel toothbrush for your needs.
