4 x Sensodyne Search Small Head Size Medium Texture

Product Information

Some people want all the bells and whistles when they’re paying for an electric toothbrush, and that’s fine, but if you’re just looking for a high-powered cleaning that keeps your teeth healthy while you straighten them, you don’t need a cadre of extra features to confuse you. It relies on replaceable batteries, which may not be as convenient or eco-friendly as rechargeable options.

The Oral-B Genius 9600 Electric Toothbrush is slightly heavier than some other toothbrush models, which might be a minor concern for individuals seeking a lighter toothbrush.Our testers also assessed each toothbrush's design, paying attention to factors like ergonomics, grip, brush head size, and other factors that might affect comfort and ease of use. We also evaluated the bristles for hardness and flexibility to get a sense of how well they would comfortably clean teeth. This data was compiled and used to calculate our final ranking. We also consulted with dental professionals to get their expert opinions on what to look for when choosing toothbrushes. They include:

Other notable features of the Oral-B Smart 1500 include a pressure sensor to protect your gums from aggressive brushing and a timer that lets you know when it’s time to move from one part of your mouth to another. The brush also runs on a long-lasting lithium ion battery which requires less charging to get your teeth and braces sparkling clean. Ease of Use: From the moment we open the box, we're noting how easy the toothbrushes are to set up and whether the settings are intuitive to use. Products with simpler assembly and out-of-the-box operation score higher than more complicated models. You should replace your toothbrush every three to four months, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This helps keep the brush bristles stiff and working to remove plaque effectively, and to prevent bacteria from growing on the brush. However, if the bristles are ultra soft like the Nimbus Regular Microfine Xtra Soft, they lose their structural integrity faster and need to be replaced every two months, Dr. Ritter told us during medical review. The ProtectiveClean 6100 toothbrush stands as a testament to Sonicare's excellence, surpassing even the fanciest of Sonicares with its multiple settings —clean, whiten, and gum—and three intensity levels, and superior performance. Considering the fair price, especially in comparison to similar products without the water flosser, we believed it offered great value. It's particularly beneficial for those with sensitive gums or gaps between their teeth. Despite its loud noise when in use, the Waterpik Complete Care 9.0 is a compelling choice, with minor improvements such as quieter operation and more effective tongue cleaning nubs to enhance the experience.

The Oral-B iO Series 5 toothbrush is an excellent choice for sensitive teeth, thanks to its specialized sensitivity modes and gentle brushing experience. The toothbrush offers multiple settings (sensitive, extra sensitive, intense, polish) and various intensity levels. Initially, we thought the toothbrush might be too thin, but it was just right for reaching all areas comfortably, and the brush head size suited our needs. Extra-soft Bristles: For a gentle yet effective clean, you may want to opt for a brush head with softer bristles like the Oral-B iO Gentle Care**. Its optimized bristle patterns adapt to the curves of your teeth and gums for maximum comfort. The Oral-B Genius 9600 electric toothbrush stands out as the epitome of excellence among Oral-B's offerings, combining advanced features, efficient cleaning modes, and thoughtful accessories for an exceptional dental care experience.
