Which type of toothbrush should I use?

Both manual and electric brushes are capable of giving you a clean, healthy mouth. HOW you brush is more important than WHAT you brush with or HOW MANY TIMES you brush. You should spend at least 2 minutes brushing each morning and before you go to bed. Don't use a long brush stroke that goes across a row of several teeth at once; use a short stroke (think of brushing one tooth at a time). MOST IMPORTANTLY - point the bristles at a 45 Degree angle into the gum tissue (down on the bottom, up on the top). You should brush ALL surfaces of your mouth (teeth, gums, tongue, cheeks, etc.)

Is one toothpaste better than others?

No. Any ADA accepted, fluoride containing toothpaste is capable of helping you have a clean mouth. If you have sensitivity, DON'T use a whitening tooth paste or bleaching agents; they will make the sensitivity worse.
