Travel + Leisure / Alexander Huang
Whether you’re packing for a quick city break or an action-packed adventure cruise, there’s one essential you can’t leave home without: a good travel toothbrush. While there’s nothing to stop you from taking your regular toothbrush with you on vacation, the best options are lightweight and compact, with a durable travel case or brush cap to keep things hygienic in transit. We’ve selected the most travel-friendly picks from our ongoing electric toothbrush tests to round up this list of the very best. Each toothbrush was rated for ease of use, functionality, overall quality, value, and portability.
We also researched the best manual travel toothbrush options, including folding and disposable picks for those who prioritize portable convenience. There’s even an all-in-one kit since dental floss , mouthwash, and toothpaste are just as important as your travel toothbrush, because as dental hygienist Caroline Amerson, RDH, BSDH, MS, says, “the bacteria in your mouth work 24/7, 365 days a year even when you’re on vacation.” Read on to find our top picks for all your travel needs.
Best Overall, Electric
Oral-b genius x limited.
This toothbrush uses artificial intelligence to deliver a futuristic brushing experience enhanced by an integrated timer and pressure sensor.
The brush is slightly top-heavy and tips easily if knocked.
For tech-savvy perfectionists, it’s difficult to imagine a better toothbrush than the Oral-B Genius X Limited, an AI-enabled masterpiece that managed to seriously impress us, despite having previously only used manual toothbrushes and balking at this one’s considerable price tag. Even with its many bells and whistles, we found it intuitive to use right out of the box. The toothbrush uses Bluetooth to connect to an app on your smartphone, where you can view a diagram of your teeth that shows which areas have been correctly cleaned in real time.
We found the ability to see when we had achieved complete coverage very satisfying. The app also provides tips for effective brushing, saves your brushing history, and gives you the option to choose which modes are activated by toggling through the toothbrush’s easy-to-operate button. These range from the default (daily clean) to intense, sensitive, whitening, gum care, and tongue clean settings. Our favorite feature was the ring of LED lights that flashes red when you brush too hard (handy for those with receding gums).
We also appreciated the built-in timer, which not only alerts you when you’ve brushed for the recommended two minutes but also lets you know how long to spend on each quadrant of your mouth. The toothbrush itself is comfortable to hold, with a small, round head that reaches the furthest areas of the mouth and glides over teeth easily. We felt as though our teeth had been professionally cleaned each time. Finally, your investment is protected while traveling by a sturdy, slimline travel case.

Best Overall, Manual
Boka classic manual toothbrush.
This toothbrush features activated charcoal-infused bristles for maximum whitening and bacteria reduction.
There’s just one bristle strength available (extra soft).
The Boka Classic Manual Toothbrush is our top pick for those who like to brush manually in their everyday lives or are hesitant to travel with an expensive electric toothbrush. It’s lightweight, with a sleek, simple build that feels comfortable in the hand and a compact head that reaches easily into tight spaces. We love that the bristles are extra soft, making them gentle on sensitive gums and teeth; yet long and tapered for an effective clean around the gumline.
Given their softness, the bristles are surprisingly durable. They’re also infused with activated charcoal for maximum cleanliness and odor reduction without resorting to abrasive charcoal pastes and powders. The bioplastic handle scores sustainability points while the included protective cap keeps things hygienic when traveling. Choose yours in white, pink, mint, or blue.
The Details: Manual | Brush cap | Extra soft bristles
AquaSonic Electric Toothbrush
This toothbrush offers many of the same key features as the more expensive ones on our list, for a fraction of the price.
The brush head is a bit small.
Approved by the American Dental Association (ADA), the AquaSonic Vibe Series Ultra Whitening Toothbrush is made for travel with a slim, lightweight body and a custom, hard plastic travel case with space for two extra brush heads. We love that the battery lasts for four full weeks, so unless you’re going on an extended trip, you don’t even need to pack the charger. When it does run out of battery, ultra-fast wireless charging eliminates the hassle of having cables all over your bathroom counter.
The toothbrush produces 40,000 vibrations per minute and includes four modes: clean, whiten, massage, and soft for sensitive gums. We found it easy to switch between the settings with a push of a button. Smart vibration timers indicate the 30-second and two-minute marks. We brushed immediately after eating gummy sweets and dried mango and felt that the toothbrush did an admirable job of cleaning our teeth. It comes with eight replacement heads in cute colors ranging from satin rose gold to mint green metallic.
Best Splurge
Philips sonicare prestige 9900 toothbrush.
This toothbrush offers AI-powered sensitive brushing, app connectivity, and a beautiful charging case that’s perfect for travel.
The expense is only worth it if you plan on using all of the extra features.
The Philips Sonicare Prestige 9900 is the most advanced electric toothbrush in the Philips range, coming in at almost twice the price of our already spendy overall winner. However, if you’re particularly invested in your oral care, it may well be worth the splurge. It’s easy to set up, ready to use right out of the box, and comfortable to hold (not too heavy, not too light, with a smooth, matte surface). There are five modes and three intensity settings to choose from, and we appreciated that we could switch between them while brushing.
The toothbrush uses intelligent SenseIQ technology to sense pressure, motion, and coverage up to 100 times per second. It uses this information to adapt intensity automatically. An LED indicator warns you if you scrub too hard or apply too much pressure; while vibration alerts tell you when to switch brushing areas and when your two minutes are up. We liked being able to view a 3D map of our brushing efforts on the AI-powered Sonicare app, while the All-in-One brush head with its extra-long, angled bristles gave us that fresh-from-the-dentist smoothness after every brush.
We particularly appreciated that the elegant, vegan leather travel case doubles as a charger for travel-ready convenience. The battery lasts approximately two weeks (enough for most trips) and has an icon to indicate how much charge remains.

Best for Sensitive Gums
Philips sonicare protectiveclean electric toothbrush.
This toothbrush offers three intensities and three brushing modes, including one especially designed for gum care.
While we liked the simplicity of not having an app or Bluetooth connectivity, some may miss these features.
The Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 6100 is specially designed for sensitive teeth and gums. It’s also ideal for orthodontics and dental work including braces, crowns, and veneers. A built-in pressure sensor emits a gentle pulsing sound whenever you brush too hard, while other vibrating alerts let you know when to switch brushing areas and when your two minutes are up. You can choose between three intensities and three brushing modes: clean, white, and gum care. The latter adds an extra minute of reduced-power brushing for a gentle gum massage.
We used all of the settings each time we brushed. Toggling through them was easy, although we had to stop brushing to do so which limited the usefulness of the two-minute timer. The brush was comfortable to hold and easy to maneuver, leaving our teeth perfectly clean and smooth. This model also features intelligent BrushSync, which adjusts the intensity according to the type of brush head used and notifies you via a light on the handle when it’s time to change heads. The toothbrush comes with a compact charging base and a sturdy, hygienic travel case.
Best Folding
Gum folding travel toothbrush.
With a handle that doubles as a protective case, this toothbrush is ideal for slipping into a carry-on or backpack pocket.
The case features ventilation holes and is therefore not completely sealed.
For maximum on-the-go convenience, we love the Gum Folding Travel Toothbrush. Its tri-fold design reduces its size considerably for easy packing, while the handle doubles as a sturdy travel case to protect bristles from germs in transit. Tiny holes allow air to pass through so that the brush can continue to dry even if packed damp; similarly, a special coating prevents bacteria from accumulating.
Unlike some other folding toothbrushes, this one is just as sturdy as a regular toothbrush when unfolded, with a full-sized head. Meanwhile, the bristles are soft enough for sensitive gums with a multi-level design that enables them to clean effectively in between teeth. When you’re finished brushing, use the tongue cleaner on the reverse side of the head to complete your oral hygiene routine.
The Details: Manual | Handle doubles as a travel case | Soft bristles
Best Disposable
Freshee 5-in-1 disposable mini toothbrush.
You don’t need water to use these mini toothbrushes.
The disposable concept isn’t very environmentally friendly.
The Freshee 5-in-1 Disposable Mini Toothbrush is the ideal solution for those long travel days when access to a bathroom isn’t always convenient. That’s because it’s pre-pasted with a gel bubble filled with a liquid toothpaste designed for use without water. And, since it also minimizes foam production you won’t need to spit. Each toothbrush is individually wrapped to keep it sterile until you’re ready to use it.
The tiny packet fits in a jacket pocket, wallet, or carry-on pouch and since you throw the toothbrush away after use, you don’t have to worry about packing the damp brush away again. Despite its diminutive size, the toothbrush takes care of all your oral hygiene needs. Pull the handle apart to reveal a toothpick, then use the flossing stick on the end to clean in between each tooth. There’s even a tongue scraper on the back of the toothbrush head for optimal oral cleaning.
The Details: Manual | Individually wrapped | Soft bristles
Spark Dental Co. Dental Travel Kit
This kit provides everything you need to keep your teeth clean in a TSA-approved, travel-ready bag.
The zippered pouch could be more durable.
Don’t have time to shop around for all of the dental care items you need ahead of your next trip? The Spark Dental Co. Travel Kit includes them all in a single purchase. First up, there’s a travel toothbrush with soft bristles and a tapered head for navigating the furthest reaches of your mouth. This toothbrush folds into its own handle, halving its size when packed and protecting it from germs — although some may find the locking mechanism is a little flimsy.
Other contents include a travel-sized tube of minty Crest toothpaste and a miniature bottle of Scope mouthwash. Both have been specifically chosen to comply with TSA rules for liquids and gels on airplanes. Finally, the kit includes a box of Oral-B dental floss for a true deep clean. All of these items come in a leakproof, zippered plastic pouch that can be used over and over again. There’s even a little space for any extra items you may wish to add.
We picked the best travel toothbrushes based on a combination of real-world testing and thorough research. All of our electric toothbrush picks were tested at home, where we evaluated them for ease of use, design, functionality, features, and quality. The selections in this article are some of our favorites from various real-world tests. The manual toothbrushes were selected by meticulously researching available data, trends, and other online reviews. We also interviewed a dental hygienist to make sure we knew what features to look for when selecting toothbrushes.
Tips for Buying a Travel Toothbrush
Decide whether you want something manual or electric.
If your budget allows for it, dental hygienist Caroline Amerson, RDH, BSDH, MS, says an electric toothbrush is always preferable to a manual one in terms of providing superior dental care. That’s because an electric toothbrush performs over 30,000 strokes per minute whereas a manual one can only perform around 300. Even if you’re going on a wilderness expedition with no access to electricity (or if you’re just worried about finding the correct adapter), a fully charged electric toothbrush will likely last for several weeks.
Amerson also points out that it’s possible to extend battery life by using the toothbrush manually in the morning and switching the electric motor on at night when it’s imperative to remove plaque and food before sleep. And, she says, just as a broken escalator turns into a functional set of stairs, so an uncharged electric toothbrush can be used as a manual one in a pinch. You could also look for an electric toothbrush with a travel-specific charging case. There is one caveat — disposable, pre-pasted toothbrushes are ideal for travel days when access to running water is difficult and you want to avoid packing a separate tube of toothpaste.
Choose the right bristle type for your teeth
Amerson says that you should only ever consider using a toothbrush with soft or extra-soft bristles. In fact, she says that “medium or hard bristles should be reserved for cleaning the grout between your bathroom tiles!” She also points out that the two major electric toothbrush brands in the United States (Oral-B and Sonicare) offer different brush head styles. Oral-B brushes use a round oscillating head which requires hopping from tooth to tooth using a slight rocking motion.
Meanwhile, Sonicare brushes have a more traditional head that should be held against the teeth with the last row of bristles sweeping the gumline. There’s no need to exert any pressure or implement any special kind of motion — just let the toothbrush glide around your mouth. Amerson points out that both styles work equally well, although she finds that Sonicare brushes offer an easier and more natural transition from manual toothbrushes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Keeping your toothbrush clean in transit requires some kind of traveling case or brush cap to prevent the bristles from coming into contact with germs. Amerson recommends choosing a case that has air vents in it to allow the bristles to dry properly. And when it comes to storing your toothbrush at your destination, try not to keep it in the same space as the toilet but rather on a nightstand or in the sink area if the latter is separate to the toilet. Finally, if you become unwell on your travels, consider purchasing a replacement toothbrush or switching out the head to prevent lingering bacteria from prolonging the sickness.
Unless space is a major concern — in which case, a folding manual toothbrush like the one listed above is your best bet — you should be able to use your everyday toothbrush on your travels. The amount you can expect to spend depends on whether you choose a manual toothbrush (usually in the $1 to $5 range) or an electric one (anywhere from $20 for a budget brand like Quip to $300+ for a top of the range choice from Sonicare). Amerson says that if high-end electric toothbrushes are out of your budget, any toothbrush with a motor is better than one without, so spend what you can while bearing in mind that a better quality product will last longer and offer more value in terms of cost per use.
According to TSA guidelines , electric toothbrushes may be packed in both your checked and carry-on luggage. The exception is those that use lithium ion batteries, which MUST be packed in your carry-on. Airports and airlines outside the U.S. may have different rules, but the general consensus seems to be that keeping your electric toothbrush with you in the cabin is the best and most acceptable practice.

Customer Reviews
Very good information, products, and service.
This is an awesome travel pack for on the go. I’m very pleased with all of the products in this travel bundle.
My teeth feel so clean!
The mouth care system kit is very convenient when I am traveling, and it is the perfect size with the right products.
The travel kit is not sufficient product for the price. The bottle sizes are small. I purchased one for a trip. It’s not enough, if you plan to use it twice a day, if you plan to stay anywhere more than 3 or 4 days. It’s too expensive to buy multiples.
Dental Travel Pack Tips
- November 14, 2022
- Category: Oral Health and Hygiene
- Tags: travel , Travel Tips
We all can utilize dental travel pack tips. When you think of a “dental kit,”what comes to mind? A toolbox your dentist uses when cleaning your teeth, perhaps? Maybe a kit that can teach people how to be dentists? In reality, dental kits are simply on-the-go dental care kits used by everyday people. Dental kits, or dental hygiene travel packs, are very useful no matter your dental health status, and they’re not as niche as their name might imply.
What Is A Dental Travel Pack?
Whether you’re traveling across the country, around the globe, or just spending the weekend at a friend or family member’s home, packing wisely is key. Unfortunately, one area people are likely to skimp on are their dental supplies. You should pack more than just a toothbrush and toothpaste, and preparing in advance can help you make sure you don’t let your teeth go neglected while you’re away. Making a dental travel pack is a great way to have what you need at the ready.
These travel packs are also known as dental kits, and they can help you save time and prevent tooth decay whenever a travel opportunity arises. Whether you’re wondering, “How do you brush your teeth when traveling?” or “Do I really need anything other than a brush and some toothpaste?”.
Dental Travel Pack Tips: Essentials
Here are the things you shouldn’t go traveling without. Your dental kit isn’t complete without them.
Packing a toothbrush is a pretty obvious choice, but some people need reminding that a toothbrush is a necessity no matter where you are. Also, it’s not always feasible to bring your normal toothbrush on vacation with you, especially if you use an electric toothbrush. Even if you use a basic toothbrush at home, it’s important to keep a fresh brush in your dental kit.
In most cases, you can get away with packing a basic toothbrush from any store, or even a travel-sized variety. Simply buy a pack next time you need to switch out your at-home toothbrush, and stash an extra in your travel kit. That way, if you leave it behind, you have a stockpile of replacements. What matters is that you keep up with your brushing even when you’re away from home.
This is the other item you probably already bring along when you travel—and for good reason, because you’ll need toothpaste when you’re on any trip. Keep in mind that while you’re likely to have access to toothpaste wherever you’re staying, if you need a special brand—such as a sensitivity toothpaste, whitening toothpaste, or gum-friendly toothpaste, bringing your own is a must. Go travel-sized if you can to save some space in the kit, as well as to minimize mess if your kit is mishandled along the way.
Mouthwash is an often-overlooked dental hygiene product. However, if you want to make sure you have a clean mouth and fresh breath when on your vacation, it’s a must-bring. Because normal mouthwash bottles are so big, finding a travel-sized bottle is practically a requirement, especially if you need to bring your dental kit on a plane. In addition, if you don’t want your things to be ruined by a leaking bottle of mouthwash, go small and use your mouthwash sparingly.
Dental Floss
It’s not just about brushing. Flossing plays a major role in maintaining a healthy mouth. While you might find some floss for sale at your hotel store, it will come at a cost premium and may not even get you through your trip. Fortunately, floss containers are so small that tossing one or two into your kit won’t take up any space. If you remember to pack floss, you’ll thank yourself later, for sparing yourself the struggle of navigating your vacation with food stuck in your teeth.
Interproximal Brush
If you wear braces , you should be familiar with interproximal brushes and how useful they are. These tools are designed to dislodge food and buildup from bands, wires, and brackets, and can even be used by people who don’t wear braces. An interproximal brush is vital for anyone who struggles to keep their teeth clean with traditional flossers, and should not be skipped when preparing a dental kit.
Dental Travel Pack Tips: Optional Items
Now that you have all your dental kit necessities assembled, that doesn’t mean you need to stop packing your dental kit. There’s plenty more you can add that will ensure you get through your next trip with a clean, healthy mouth. You can get by without these, but consider packing for convenience or unexpected scenarios.
During most trips, you’ll already have access to a mirror you can use while cleaning and examining your teeth. Still, it can be helpful to pack a travel-sized mirror for those times you’re stuck in a traffic jam, waiting on a delayed flight, or simply looking for a quick fix when you’re out and about. Even an old makeup compact with a mirror will get the job done and fit seamlessly in the smallest dental kit.
A Bottle of Water
Water is an essential thing to have with you wherever you go. For the purposes of a dental kit, you’ll need water for more than just hydration. Water can clean the toothpaste out of your mouth after you brush under normal circumstances, and if you’re ever in a situation where normal brushing isn’t possible, swishing water around in your mouth can help you get rid of food particles and lingering acids. Keep in mind that even a sealed bottle of water becomes unsafe to drink if it’s sitting around in the heat for too long. Use a travel-sized bottle that you switch out regularly for the best results.
Sugar-Free Gum
Did you know that gum can keep your teeth clean? While many brands of gum on the market are sticky, sugary, and unhealthy, sugar-free gum is a good way to freshen your breath without causing damage to your teeth. In fact, it can prevent cavities and help you avoid dryness. Sugar-free gum is especially useful on plane rides because chewing gum can stop your ears from popping at a high altitude.
Note that most gum brands aren’t recommended for patients with braces, because gum can get stuck or even cause damage to brackets and wires. However, contrary to popular belief, some gum brands are approved by the American Dental Association for use by people with braces. Just do your research or talk to your orthodontist ahead of time to learn what sort of gum is approved for your situation.
Tongue Scrapers
A tongue scraper helps remove bacteria from the tongue, allowing you to avoid bad breath and other bacteria-related problems. Many toothbrushes already incorporate a tongue scraper on the back end. If you don’t travel, bringing a dedicated tongue scraper can be useful, especially if you have chronic bad breath or bacterial issues that brushing alone won’t resolve.
Other Dental Travel Pack Tips
Aside from knowing what you should pack with you, there are some other tips that can help with your dental kit experience. These general tips will help you make use of the space you have, avoid messes, and keep your kit well-packed and ready to go.
Travel-sized items are the size they are for a reason—they’re far more convenient to bring on a trip compared to the regular retail version of those same items. When it comes to dental hygiene, it may seem like having less product available is a drawback, but most travel-sized items are perfectly suitable for a weeklong trip or more. You only need a pea-sized amount of toothpaste each time you brush, and a little bit of floss and a little bit of mouthwash can go a long way. Your dental kit shouldn’t be a large part of your travel gear, and a single bag or lunch box should be able to fit everything you need and more if you use travel-sized items.
Prevent Spills
You can avoid making a mess if you keep items like toothpaste and mouthwash sealed in a plastic zipper bag. In the best-case scenario, you’ll never need to worry about protecting your things from a spill, but many unexpected things can happen when traveling. Keeping your messiest supplies in separate packaging can keep your kit—and the rest of your travel bag—clean. This tip has the added bonus of keeping your toothbrush and other items germ-free.
Keep Packed
Ideally, you’ll pack your kit in advance and replenish it when you get home from a trip. If you already have some travel-sized amenities and a spare toothbrush, you can create a mini dental kit that’s ready to be grabbed on the go. Then, add some of the other items as you build out the perfect dental kit for you. Staying packed avoids the scramble of getting everything ready the day of your trip, ensures that you don’t forget anything vital, and makes it easier to keep everything in one place between trips.
Keep Your Mouth Clean and Fresh With a Dental Travel Kit
There’s no reason to sacrifice dental hygiene just because you’re traveling, especially if you have braces or other orthodontic work. Once your dental kit is ready to go, you can face any dental issue that comes your way when you’re on vacation. Better yet, the more prepared you are, the more you can focus on enjoying your time away from home and less on how to pack and how to keep fresh. It’s easy, and it works, so pack your own dental kit today and avoid the stress later.

Essential Dental Kits for Summer Travel: Protecting Your Smile on the Go
- Essential Dental Kits For Summer Travel Protecting Your Smile On The Go
Summer travel brings the promise of adventure, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. Whether you’re exploring exotic beaches, trekking through national parks, or simply enjoying a staycation, maintaining your dental hygiene is crucial. Neglecting oral care can turn a delightful vacation into an uncomfortable experience. To help you keep your smile bright and healthy while on the move, here’s a guide to packing an essential dental kit for your summer travels.
Why Pack a Dental Kit for Travel?
Travel often disrupts our daily routines, including our dental care habits. Long flights, hectic schedules, and the allure of local delicacies can lead us to neglect our oral health. Moreover, finding dental products in a foreign country or remote location might not always be easy or cost-effective. A pre-packed dental kit ensures that you have everything you need to maintain dental hygiene, no matter where you are.
What to Include in Your Travel Dental Kit
1. travel-sized toothbrush.
Opt for a compact, foldable toothbrush specifically designed for travel. These brushes are space-efficient and come with a protective cover to keep the bristles clean.
2. Mini Toothpaste
A small tube of fluoride toothpaste is perfect for short trips and meets airline regulations for carry-on liquids. If you’re traveling for longer, consider taking a couple of these to last your entire trip.
3. Floss or Interdental Cleaners
Flossing shouldn’t take a vacation when you do. Pack pre-cut floss picks or a small box of dental floss to remove food particles and plaque that your toothbrush can’t reach. Interdental brushes are also great for those with braces or dental implants.
4. Mouthwash
A small bottle of therapeutic mouthwash can help in maintaining oral hygiene, freshening breath, and reducing plaque buildup. Look for a travel-sized bottle or transfer some into a small, leak-proof container.
5. Sugar-Free Gum
Chewing sugar-free gum, especially after meals, can help in stimulating saliva flow, which aids in neutralizing and washing away acids produced by dental plaque bacteria.
6. Portable Water Flosser
For those who use water flossers, consider investing in a portable model. They are rechargeable and much more compact, making them suitable for travel.
Additional Tips for Dental Care While Traveling
- Drink Plenty of Water : Staying hydrated helps in producing saliva which is essential for maintaining oral health.
- Avoid Sugary Snacks : It’s tempting to indulge in sugary snacks and beverages, especially when they’re part of local cuisines. Try to keep these to a minimum or ensure you clean your teeth soon after indulging.
- Use a Toothbrush Sanitizer : Consider using a UV toothbrush sanitizer to reduce the accumulation of bacteria on your toothbrush.
- Routine Checks : Keep up with your dental routine as much as possible. Brush twice a day and floss daily to keep your oral hygiene on track.
Packing an essential dental kit for your summer travels is a simple yet effective way to ensure that your dental health remains a priority, even when you’re away from home. With these tips, you can enjoy your summer escapades without worrying about dental woes. Smile on and travel far!

As a result, most expats use some form of private dentistry, which offers more options.
