Teeth brushing

I'm having massive issues with getting my 7 year old daughter to brush her teeth. It's always a battle, it takes less energy for her to just brush her bloomin teeth rather than shout and tantrum.

We have bought her an electric toothbrush which cost a lot of money to see if that would help and put it on her reward chart but she still hates it and it is becoming a point of the day that I dread. One of her teeth now has a hole in it!!

Please someone help me

Does she use an iPad or any other kind of device? I would go along the route of teeth brushing gets rewarded with device time. No tooth brushing or causing a fuss before she does it means no device time.
