[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My teenager tries her hardest to brush 2 times a day but still seems to end up with a cavity after her 6 month checkup. The hygienist recommended switching from a manual to an electric toothbrush. She seems to really enjoy all the beeps coming from her high-tech brush. If you press too hard against your gums, it makes one sound, and every 30 seconds it makes another sound and pauses briefly so she knows when to move to another section of her mouth. It is recommended that you go 30 seconds per quadrant and the built in timer makes it much easier for her to to keep track of her brush time. After 2 minutes (the recommended brush time) it automatically turns off but you can manually turn it back on.
The brush has several smart features including a low and high intensity setting and easy start (which slowly increases the intensity of power for the first 14 days so you can get used to using an electric brush). There is also a brush head replacement reminder. There is a way to deactivate both the easy start and brush head replacement reminder features if desired.
In an effort to be sustainable, the brush charging unit is USB and doesn’t have a prong wall plug. This helps reduce the amount of plastic used. You can keep your brush on the charging station or off. If you brush 2 times a day the brush will remain charged for 14 days. The handle shows the status of the battery charge so you will know when it’s time to recharge as well as when to replace the head. The head is easy to replace. No twisting, just a firm pull straight up. The handle is lightweight but solid.
Overall this is a well made product that I believe will help my daughter’s oral hygiene. I look forward to her next cleaning appointment to see the results.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so in love with this Toothbrush. It works amazing and my teeth feel so clean after I use it. I have tried many different electric toothbrushes over the years and this is by far the best one and cannot use any other kind.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had never used one of these so I didn't know what to expect, but I was honestly totally surprised after the first use. Felt just I came from the dentist! I just kept running my tongue over my teeth I'm skeptical that my teeth were ever clean before.
Having 2 speed options is great and I like how it lets you know if your are using too much pressure. That's a bad habit of mine. This also lets you know when to change the head but time will tell how accurate that is.
I don't think I will ever go back to a regular tooth brush. Seriously, try it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Philips - 4100 Series HX3681/23 Sonic electric toothbrush is a little powerhouse. I like the timer so you know that you've brushed long enough. The sensor that let's you know that you are brushing too hard is essential for me. I tend to scrub. It doesn't take up valuable counter space...just a little. I felt a real sense of clean after using this toothbrush. I highly recommend it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow. I've always been told by my dentist to consider switching to electric toothbrush, and I am never going back. I think quality and price is second to none, and if you need to get the job done this is your toothbrush. I do appreciate the smart brush function with the 2 min timer that buzzes every 30 seconds to ensure that you brush at every angle of your teeth. If you push to hard on the brush you do get a quick notification to let off a little so that you take the most optimal approach for brushing. If you are thinking about making the switch this is the perfect product for it. Highly recommend!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this after my other died. This one is so slim and easy. Love that it's thorough and gives the choice of "clean" and "white" both of which are effective in making my teeth and mouth feel extra refreshed and healthy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve noticed that my mouth feels so much cleaner and healthier right after AND in general after switching from a manual toothbrush to this product. I like that there is a timer built in letting you know when to switch sections, it is very helpful. The charge lasts forever too!
