Sonicare has been the gold standard for tooth cleaning for many years.
Now, the deep scan of the mouth says it "removes up to 76% of the plaque in hard-to-reach places than Sonicare FlexCare.
"But is a toothbrush really so much better than the other one?
First of all, please know that I am not a dentist and do not have the proper instruments required for a real scientific test.
So, lawyers, please note: my result is indeed my subjective opinion.
That said, what I'm going to do is to test as fairly as possible in my own comfortable bathroom: I chew those dental dye pills-the kind that your dentist uses to reveal where you don't brush very well.
Then I brushed the side of the mouth with Sonicare, up and down for 30 seconds, and then I brushed the other side of the mouth exactly the same time with the mouth B deep sweep.
Subjective difference Oral B seems to help with more movement of bristles, with Sonicare feeling more frequently and with less vibration.
Sonicare is a little more itchy than low frequency Oral B.
The mouth B is heavy and the brush head is larger than Sonicare.
I prefer the feeling of Oral B.
What is the result of making my teeth cleaner?
I didn't see any remaining dyes when I looked in the mirror.
So I asked my producer and editor to double check.
Nor did they notice any difference in the cleaning effect of these devices.
Test #2 this test, I definitely don't recommend you to do it yourself: I rub fluorescent cream in my teeth and gaps-the kind of thing that appears under black light.
This paste will really show up in black light, so maybe we'll see some places where the toothbrush is not clean.
I brushed the four quadrants of my mouth with one of the devices, each for a full 30 seconds.
After careful examination, the teeth looked clean.
Finally, to measure the real value of these high-end toothbrushes, I repeated the test, the $129 Sonicare and $139 deep scan were performed with the $9 Arm & Hammer rotary toothbrush and a regular manual toothbrush.
They also do a good job of removing dyes.
Conclusion I would really like my test to show that there is a big difference between one brush and the other.
But there is no obvious contrast to my simple staining test.
Although this does not prove that the toothbrush is the same, I can tell you that both of my teeth feel very clean.
When cleaning, I like the feeling of Oral B best;
It seems to do a lot of brushing work for me.
The Oral B comes with a separate timer that encourages you to brush for 30 seconds for each of the four quadrants of your mouth.
Sonicare has the same effect on beeps, but the small timer device for Oral B is a great visual push to keep brushing your teeth.
About Sonicare, I did one thing I liked more --
It makes my gums feel a little tingling (is that a word? )
But you know.
In my experience, the gums are more stimulated.
But it's important to spend $139 on a toothbrush, and I don't think you really need to spend that much to clean your teeth, as long as you brush well and use floss in a space that you can reach without a brush.
