Just OK
I guess I was expecting more. The item doesn't seem to clean as well as the stand tips. Just my opinion. I doubt I will bother to replace these when they wear out.

WaterPik Pocket Tip
My neighbor, who is a dentist, recommended that I use a Waterpik with a pocket tip to clear up my gum disease and keep my gums healthy. It really works, and I continue to use it for maintenance.

Long delivery time
Everything seems OK except the delivery time. I placed order on April 8 and was told the delivery estimate : April 16 to 22. It didn't reach me on time and I wrote to enquire about the status on May 1. Finally, the item was posted to me on May 23.

Questions & Answers
Question : How can a toothbrush be an energy vampire?
I've heard from the Nickelodeon advertisement that game chargers, electric appliances and even a toothbrush are energy vampires. What I mean is that how can a toothbrush be an energy vampire when you control it manually?
Answer:
Perhaps they do mean electric toothbrushes. People (me included) leave them plugged in all day and they don't require that much energy. Or, manual toothbrushes consume energy because they are made of plastic, and many of these cannot be recycled, or are not made of recycled plastic, and will end up in a landfill for a thousand years.

Question : How do I clean an electronic toothbrush?
I just bought one, and I accidentaly threw away the manual. Are we supposed to clean the whole toothbrush? What if water gets inside? I do believe we have to clean it no matter what, as it is a toilet use and should be water proof. Please help!
Answer:
Don't worry at all.Electronic toothbrushes are totally waterproof. The best way to clean it is the following;
Dump a cloth with warm water and some baking soda. With a simple wipe on wipe off, you will have a bright, bacteria free toothbrush!

Question : How many of you feel a vibration under your nose while brushing with an electric toothbrush?
I'm doing some research on this topic to see if anyone has or knows what I'm talking about, being twitching sensation you feel around your nose when brushing your teeth with a electric toothbrush, mind you I know what causes it, I'm only seeing if there are people out there that experience this, and if it's consider a minor or more then minor inconvenience to you or not.
I'm interested to know, and this is purely for reseach.
Answer:
lol. I know what you are talking about. It doesn't happen all the time, but every once in awhile when I'm brushing my teeth and I have to end up rubbing my nose because it tickles.

Question : When should you throw away a toothbrush?
I have never known how long to keep a toothbrush for! What is the average life span? I usually keep mine for a few months. Is that ok? Does it make a difference if its electric or not?
Answer:
Hi! I've been in dentistry for over 25 years. I recommend that you change your toothbrush every 3-4 months and after a cold or serious infection. Boiling in water melts the plastic handle and weakens the brush. Do not do that. For 2 bucks toss it and get another. Do not use the brush so hard it fans out. You are not scrubbing the kitchen floor. Gum tissue is delicate and teeth can be worn done if you brush too hard. ONLY use a soft tooth brush that will get into the area around the tooth. Electric is fine as long as you get into the area behind your back teeth and the back of all your front teeth. I don't care what my patients use as long as they use it twice a day and floss. If you have any other questions, please ask. If sounds like you have a great attitude and will have your teeth your whole life. GOOD for you!!!! Keep up the good work. Marie

Question : What do people with eatting disorders use a toothbrush for?
I know it can be used to induce vomiting but is there anything else? My suit mate used to keep a really nasty moldy toothbrush on the sink in our bathroom and i really don't think she was brushing her teeth with it. She threw up a lot but I know she had a lot of health problems so I don't know if it was self induced vomiting.

Question : How do you brush your teeth with an electric toothbrush without applying pressure?
I love my electric toothbrush but I'm having a hard time holding it to my teeth without applying at least some pressure. I have a small mouth so I don't know if that's adding to my problem. I would love some suggestions or advice. My gums are very sore.
Answer:
Hold the toothbrush in your fingertips, put it into your mouth in the cheek area then close your mouth a bit and brush. Don't tighten your cheek muscles or purse your lips, keep everything relaxed. With the electric toothbrush you use it to guide the bristles around your teeth and gums rather than using it like a manual toothbrush as there is no need to activate it to be effective.
http://en-ca.dentalcare.com/soap/patient/index.htm
This link has detailed information on Power Brushing including a video that is very useful. If your gums are very sensitive initially try using some Orajel (babys teething gel) on them prior to brushing. This should numb them up a bit. Also if you have an Oral B power brush there is also an "Extra Soft" brushhead available from the drug store.

Question : Is it ok to use a strong electric toothbrush after wisdom tooth removal?
I have a pretty strong electric toothbrush (it's Oral-B Professional Care Triumph). Is it too strong to use after wisdom teeth removal?
Answer:
Stay away from the extraction site for about 5-7 days with any kind of instrument. You could tear the stitches and/or knock out the blood clot which could lead to dry socket which is very very painful. Also avoid carbonated drinks, swishing liquid in your mouth, mouthwash,smoking, and sucking on straws. You can rinse very gently with warm water.

Question : What is the Best electric toothbrush? I heard of two: Sonicare and Oral B?
I'm planning to get a electric toothbrush and want to know which should I get. I know of two that are popular but not sure which is best.
Of course everybody have their likes and dislikes of the two but I just want to get a survey so that I can have a better grasp of which is best suited for me.
In your opinion, which brand do you like most and why? Thanks.
Answer:
Sonicare Elite is my top choice. There are many different model designations, but the "motors" are all pretty much the same. The kits are different because they pack different accessories. Some have two brush heads and some have four. Some have a travel bag and some have a wall-mount charger instead of a counter top charger. Just read the label carefully and buy what you need. Bear in mind that you will have to replace the brush heads about every six months, so see if it is cheaper to buy a few extra brush heads in one of the kits.
Otherwise, buy a Sonicare, read and follow the directions. The directions are very clear and easy to understand.
Sonicare is especially recommended for someone with braces, by the way.

Question : How do you clean the gunk from an electric toothbrush?
I hope you guys can help me with this since Philips (Sonicare maker) couldn't even properly answer this question. Almost every week, disgusting dark green colored film collects inside the electric toothbrush head. First of all, is this normal? is anyone else having this issue? I have to take a manual toothbrush to scrub out the film. Is this a common occurrence with electric toothbrushes, am I supposed to ignore this gross film and just change the head every 3-4 months? It's getting to be a hassle to have to clean out this film every week!
Answer:
THIS FILM IS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE WITH THIS BRUSH. ONCE PER WEEK USE A PAPER TOWEL DAMPENED IN RUBBING ALCOHOL TO CLEAN THE INSIDE OF THE CAP.
THIS MAINTENANCE MUST ALSO BE DONE FOR THE RUBBER CONNECTOR OF THE BRUSH HEAD.
REMEMBER TO REPLACE THE BRUSH HEAD EVERY THREE MONTHS.
I USE THE SONICARE ELITE MODEL.

Question : What kind of electric toothbrush should I get?
I'm getting braces soon and my hygienist said to get an electric toothbrush. So what kind should I get that will help take better care of my braces?
Answer:

If you want to try a Sonicare without taking out a loan, I've got good news for you. I just bought one for THIRTY DOLLARS. It uses two "AA" batteries, so you are not paying for a charger, etc. I have no idea how long the batteries last (yet), but $70 would buy a boat load of batteries. It seems to be equally effective as the rechargeable version with the new batteries.
