Customer Reviews of Oral-B Professional Care 1000 Power Toothbrush
Customer Review: Take some getting used to.
Summary: 4 Stars
I owned an electric toothbrush briefly while I had braces a few years ago. It was terrible. I don't even know what brand it was but I think I gave it to Goodwill. In the last year or so, my orthodontist and hygienist have told me to get another one. I finally did January 1. I wanted the Braun Oral-B 3D Excel Pulsating Toothbrush but got this one instead. They seemed about the same. I was apprehensive at first. I let it charge for 16 hours (as the manual said) and used it the next day. It's scary how much it vibrates. It seems like it would damage your teeth or gums! But it's so neat though! I hope it helps. I have a problem with plaque and gum recession (I'm only 24!!!). But when I had braces I brushed really hard not knowing the damage it would do to my gums. Now I know, so I guess that's all that matters. I feel some tartar on my teeth after using this thing but I think that is because I was worried I'd hurt something in there! As I get used to it, I'm sure it'll be much better. I spent $63 on this, so it better work! Already, I like it better than regular brushing.Customer Review: Nice Set with Excellent Quality, Perfect for Daily Use
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been used electronic brush for over 3 years now. I am tired of changing batteries in my old electronic brushes once a few weeks.
The Oral B 7550 sets its price at a acceptable range (I bought it when it was on sale), for about 35-50 dollars, I think they would be your number one choice.
The decide is very decent, and everything works out quite well.
With this set, you don't need to worry about changing batteries, just charnge it once a week would be fine (when the battery is in new condition), I am expecting it could last for about 3 years, so divide the price down to per year, it is really cheap. (I know that the brush heads still cost additional money)
If you like using electronic brush like me, choose this product will be good to go. I am not a rich guy so I avoid buying those product cost like 50 to even more than 100.
They do almost the same things, so why not just get the basic functions. As long as it can clean up your teeth, that is the most important function I am looking for.
Customer Review: You won't regret this purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm giving this item 5 stars, though I do agree with what a previous reviewer said - it does get sloppy near the base of the charger. You have to keep on top of that if you don't want paste buildup there. For me the buildup has never affected charging.
However, the list of positives is strong. I had a previous model of Oral B electric and this one is cheaper and even better. It works like a charm. A nice feature is that it lets you know when you've been brushing for 2 minutes. That may sound silly to some people but most people do not brush long enough. A scrub here and a scrub there and they think they're done because their mouth tastes minty. This gets your teeth CLEAN. After I had this brush for a few months I had a dentist visit. He asked me if I had gotten my teeth whitened! (I hadn't and I don't use any special toothpaste. I just brush with this for the two minutes.)
This product is excellent and really works well.
By the way, I still have the other Oral B I mentioned and it still works, after about 8 years.
Customer Review: much better than manual, best among electric
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using it for about a month and I absolutely love it. It cleans my teeth really well and massages my gums. It requires very little pressure from my hands (helps me deal with my RSI). Even the brush heads pricing is fairly reasonable. you can buy the standard brush heads on Amazon for about $5 each (cheaper than Phillips sonicare brush heads). That sounds like a lot but I realized that with each brush head lasting three months (Oral-B recommendation), it can actually save me money over my typical going through one manual toothbrush a month. I think the brush heads last longer because much less pressure is applied in typical usage.
(vs other models)
It's got all the basic features you want (brushing action, high-frequency pulse, pressure sensor, 4x30 sec timer, inductive charging) and none of them bells and whistles of questionable usefulness (such as different brushing modes, "Smart" brushing guide, and travel charger). I think it's a best buy among the electric toothbrushes on the market today.
Customer Review: Strongly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this product over 2 years ago. This is my first electric toothbrush. I am extremely happy with the product. My teeth have gotten healthier since the time I started using it.
Its superfast pulsating, oscillating, and rotating actions loosen and remove plaque from teeth and gum very effectively, and remove stains too. It has two speed settings, and an automatic timer that makes the brush stutter when the recommended two minute brushing time is reached. The bristles are so soft that it is a pleasure to use the brush to massage the gum. My brush is still going strong -- thanks to Braun's quality.
The only regret is when I bought this brush, I paid a much higher price. The price has come down over the years. But I have saved on toothpaste consumption (electric brushheads can hold much less toothpaste than manual toothbrushes)!
I strongly recommend this product.
