Fantastic Toothbrush, No longer available!
This is a fantastic toothbrush, but apparently it is not compatible with peroxide & baking soda toothpaste. I think there have been some instances of brush heads breaking in peoples' mouths. Crest has pulled the product from retailers and claims to be working on the problem.
I hope they get the problem fixed and re-introduce the product. For now, I can't find replacement heads anywhere.

Works great, definitly get one if you can.
I had never tried an electric toothbrush and this looked like an enexpensive way to see if I wanted a "real" one. I got this on sale a several months ago and I use it a few times a week (relax, I use the manual one the rest of the time). I figured it would last long enough for me to see how I liked it, then it would die.
It has been working great and I really like the action. The battery that came with it burned out fairly quick, but the second battery is still going.
The brush replacements they had left are a little strange looking, something about adding treatments, but I just ignore that. The brush works the same as any other except it has an extra rubber thing that is supposed to keep you floride gel on your teeth I think.
If it does ever die then I will buy a non-battery electric toothbrush, and one likethis (both spin action and back-and-forth action in the same head).

Questions & Answers
Question : Healthy Foods to Lose Weight?
Ok, I know I am overweight... I don't need anyone to tell me to eat healthier but I have two issues. Time and Braces. I was working on eating healthy foods before I got braces last August. Now, all of the healthy foods I had worked into my diet are out. And the one thing that was stopping my sugar cravings (hard candy) is out. Any suggestions.
Just an FYI, I can't eat hard foods including nuts, anything with seeds, raw vegitables or salad (unless I am home and near my power toothbrush). Oh, and I am lactose intollerant.
Answer:
Try the sugar free Jello pudding for your sweet cravings. Also Weight Watchers frozen fudge bars are huge, chocolate and high in fiber. ( don't know how that works with the lactose intolelrace)
Really increase your fiber. Oatmeal, high fiber cereal, breads. Soups are really good for you too. Just don't eat creamy ones.

which is the best power toothbrush mention the name of the company and model name please?
Answer:
Any thing that you like is the best. Because you will only use a brush that you like. We like rotadent tooth brushes. But you can get the same results from good techniquea and most importantly consistency.

Question : Could a battery powered toothbrush start a fire?
If it was left on when you left the house to drain the battery...is there a possibility it could spark or something and start a fire??
The insert that came with the toothbrush says to drain the batter once a month and recharge from scratch to keep it working better. I have no idea how that helps, but thanks for the help! My mind is now more at ease! I get paranoid about these things!! :-)
Answer:
No. The maximum energy output by the battery (usually AA's)
could not generate enough heat to even start melting the plastic handle. I have never seen or heard of one being able to spark. You'd need a lot more electricity to do that.

Question : How to care for my bonded tooth?
In December 2006, in a sports accident I had my front tooth broken in half horizontally.- next day it was thankfully bonded back on. - you can obviously see the difference through the colour I was wondering how I should care for the tooth. When I look closely now I can see the line where The crack goes across. (-dont know if that was visible before, like if the bonding covered it or not since I didnt really check). I've had a custom mouthguard made for me for sports which I use during every sport now. I dont bite into ANYTHING with my front teeth (no sandwhiches, etc) I only eat foods I can cut and places directly past the tooth. I have been using a powered crest spinbrush toothbrush with an extra soft head and Colgate Total and Crest Pro-Health. How should i be caring for and maybe help the tooth heal itself? I've really been considering this and am probably getting it tomorrow... Colgate Luminous toothpaste. It is supposed to contain minerals to help restore tooth enamal! Opinions?
I think its "bonded," I dont knew exactly what they did but they re-attached the broken part of the tooth to the top part of the tooth which was still intact (dint know the name for what they did, but I heard something about bonding and they also mentioned they dont know how long it will hold, maybe forever maybe a very short time... confusing!!). Also, the texture is somewhat different on the portion of the re-attached tooth.
kind of going along with the first answer
... I actually found the piece that was broken off and they used THAT piece of the tooth and put that back on, not a composite, its the actual piece! I can tell because it has a certain small spot where its a bit discolored from before. And when I went in after that to take my impression for my mouthguard, the assistant that did the impression told me it could be like a broken bone and may take up to 6 months to heal. The dentist said that since Im still young and have good blood flow through my teeth it could heal or something. (When the piece was broken off, and was found and taken back home for the night, I kept it in milk to not dry it out or anything and they were actually able to use that piece even though the assistant almost laughed at us when we said we saved the tooth and said they cant do anything with it when we came in, but she ended up helping the dentist use that piece, I bet she felt dumb)
Answer:
Sorry to tell you, but a tooth cannot heal itself once it is broken. I broke my front tooth when I was 6. Unfortunetely I had to get a rootcanal, and then the broken part was 'bonded' back on. What they did to it, and most probably to yours, was put white filling called composite to replace the broken part. Unfortunetely, composite is hard to match to the tooths natural enamel color. It will always look slightly different. Another bad thing about composite is that with time it darkens, and cannot be bleached. You'll have to get the composite changed every few years to match with your other teeth or it will become very visible.
It's true that you have to be careful with it now. The tooth is now weakened and could break off if you eat a baguette, or bite into an apple...Your best bet would be to get a veneer. IThe best way I can describe it is that it's like a fake nail for your tooth. The dentist will prepare the tooth (pretty much shave off the front .5mm) and take an impression to later fit the veneer. It puts the strenth back; sort of. It will look much better and match better because it's made out of porceline. It will be shinny like your other teeth too. I don't know if you've noticed, but if you dry your broken tooth, it isn't shinny like the others but mat.
Down side to a veneer: It doesn't bleach either, so you have to take good care of the other teeth. You'll get the opposite effect here. One white tooth, and the others darker. The only other thing is that it could un-cement, but can be put back on. Just be careful with it, and avoid it if you can, but don't stress if you forget and eat a sandwich.

Answer:
I purchased a sonicare elite 9800 from my dentist, got a$20 discount for purchasing from him. I used to use a Crest Spinbrush, it sucked b/c it was battery powered (AA bat.) it would cut off whenever I applied any pressure. Not to mention it rusted up....cheap. So i've had my Sonicare since June, can't live w/o it.
-U change the head every 6 months
-That particular model is the best they have and the only one that comes with 2 different style heads and speed controll
-It has a built in timer and give a suggested map of the mouth to hepl get optimum results
-Can stay charged for days if you wanna travel and cant plug your charger up, comes with travel kit included
-whitens and brightens teeth
-Prevents you from wearing down your (irreplaceable) gum line
-No other toothbrush will give you a cleaner mouth!! I really love it and I'm buying my mom one. Worth every penny

Question : Using colgate 360 microsonic power toothbrush after having braces
Is this toothbrush ok for people who have retainers? or is it harmful that it can move teeth because of vibrations?
Answer:
As long as you are not forceful when brushing your teeth. Just use gentle short back and forth motions when brushing. Be sure to angle your toothbrush at 45 degrees towards your gum tissue.

Question : Oral-B Cross Action Power Electric Toothbrush?
Ok my toothbrush won't stay off.. like i press down the "Off" portion of the button and it stays off for like a second, but every time I even so much as touch any part of the brush, it turns back on! like when i go to put it in the holder, it turns itself on.. it is really quite annoying.. is there anything I can do? Or should I just buy a different kind of electric toothbrush?
Answer:
Sometimes, dried toothpaste sticks underneath the control switch. Try rinsing it really well in hot water.
