Yes you can use electric toothbrush.2 minute timer is fixed in it which helps in proper brushing for two minutes if you are not able to maintain through manual toothbrush.
There are no side effects. Else there are not much difference and both help in plaque removal.
You have total control over toothbrush in manual method, so I think it's preferable.
After proper scaling and polishing, you can maintain cleanliness with proper brushing habits.
Next Steps
