I use an electric toothbrush now as I found it hard to coordinate a Manuel one with the tremor, it helps alot.

An early thing I noticed with PD was lack of coordination in my right hand I am where the tremor is.. My hand just doesn't do what I want it to. Difficult to brush teeth and I am no longer able to.
Chop up ground beef, beat an egg by hand...generally, that hand is very uncoordinated. My dentist suggested a water-pik which helps, and a battery operated toothbrush.

Yes, I do notice that in my left hand and also a delay in initiating movement. The delay is probably only 2 seconds but seems longer
