The invention concerns an electronic toothbrush with a cylindrical head, actuated by a DC motor; its operating mode is based on the toothbrushing method referred to as the "roll stroke brushing method"; i.e. the brush should always perform a continuous rotary movement from the gum towards the teeth. Its operating principle implements an accelerometer/temperature sensor gyroscope system (for example a GY-521) that measures the angles formed by the axis of the brush relative to the horizontal plane and transmits the values to a microcontroller, the actual brain where all the controls are stored, which is linked in turn to an H bridge that allows the direction of the current delivered to a DC motor, to which it is linked, to be reversed, depending on the angles. It comprises a handle where the main components that are to be described are assembled, and a cylindrical head with a (semi-cylindrical) working part that will directly face the teeth in order to perform brushing; the other half of the cylinder shall be protected by a semi-cylindrical spacer intended to protect the mucous membranes during brushing; It comprises a start/stop push-button that shall be referred to as the power supply push-button for switching on the power, and two buttons (+) and (-) for increasing or decreasing the speed of rotation of the brush as required. These buttons are linked to the microcontroller to which they transmit pulses and, using a computer program based on the principle of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation), allow the motor to be sped up or slowed down. It also comprises a push-button for switching between the upper and lower modes, depending on the dental arch to be brushed. This is all managed by a computer program supported by the microcontroller (for example, an ATmega 328P); the temperature sensor allows the current to be cut off in the event of overheating, if required; for this purpose, this component will be positioned as close as possible to the motor in order to ensure the me
