About this deal

Oral-B rushes tend to be about 20-25% cheaper for like equivalents, but this can stretch even further. The Sonicare brush head replacement subscription is all about bringing convenience to your healthy smile. In particular, Oral-B brushes use oscillating-rotating technology that closely mimics the motion of a manual toothbrush and provides a deep clean. And the 3500 has multiple cleaning modes and a built-in timer to ensure proper brushing technique.It is my choice for the best electric toothbrush, all things considered. The way the cleaning is done will have different sensations in the mouth. This will influence your decision on the best brush for you.

For most, I think the travel case is most useful as it is one of those things we do not need every day, but when travelling it can be a great accessory to keep things together, protect the brush and the head and avoid accidental activation.For example, readers may ask, ‘I am looking at the Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4300, which is the equivalent from Oral-B?’ Whilst the evidence is that there is a fairly certain small benefit, whether this will make much difference in the mouth is unclear. This is because results from tests in the lab do not automatically translate to real world scenarios. It offers a feature that no other Sonicare brush has: A brush head base that includes a UV sanitizer. We had explored a few of these types of brushes in our initial research, but found that most reputable studies show no significant benefits from having a UV sanitizer for brush heads. But it seems like a cool idea.

Clinical studies such as this onesuggest a marked difference in the clean offered by the oscillating rotating brush compared to the sonic option. Despite claiming Sonicare win this category, Oral-B tends to offer more features on cheaper brush handles. More cleaning modes, a pressure sensor and Bluetooth connectivity on models that are cheaper than Sonicare, allowing those with a restricted budget to get more for their money. Sonicare produce a strong vibration and humming sound, whereas the Oral-B brushes produce a much louder mechanical noise. It is hard to explain the difference. The weirdest thing is that the standard DiamondClean does not give you access to the Philips Sonicare App. Only two brushes do that, the 7300 and the final brush in the Sonicare line—the DiamondClean Smart.

Despite its dark exterior, which we were afraid would collect toothpaste scum, the handle washes off easily and still looks new after months of use.

The 5100 and 6100 also include the BrushSync feature which uses the chip detection to not only tell how long you have been using the brush head, but also automatically matches whichever brush head you use to the right mode. So if you switch from the Gum Care brush head to the Whitening brush head, the mode on the brush will automatically detect this and change. You can override the automatic syncing if you want to. This is a cool feature, but again, we aren’t sure if any of these modes are better than the daily clean mode. The ExpertClean 7300 offers the exact same cleaning as the 6100 with 3 modes and 3 intensities, but it offers a couple of bells and whistles that make it a bit more of a luxury brush. I stand by this as you do generally get more in the box with Oral-B brushes. Be that brush heads or other useful items. When you said oral b was the one for families, I feel like all the reasons were budget related, maybe you could change it to just one better thing? Reply It is relatively quiet, and the battery life is excellent. In our test, we got almost 50 days of cleaning from one charge which is quite a bit better than Philips’ claim of 2 weeks. It took about 13 hours to charge the battery fully, which was average for most brushes we tested. Battery life testing results after three months of use

How important this is will depend on your routine. It is safe to leave either brand of brush on charge for a prolonged period of time but for frequent travellers, the extended life of the Sonicare may be preferred.
