Customer Reviews of Oral-B Healthy Clean + Floss Action Precision 5000 Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush, 1 Count
Customer Review: A Clear Winner
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this as part of a program to improve my oral health--Not just my teeth, but my gums & tongue as well. This brush does a great job of thoroughly cleaning your teeth w/o hurting your gums. The timer that directs you to switch from one quadrant to another, every thirty seconds is a good reminder. And the red light that flashes when too much pressure is applied is quite handy.
In addition to switching my toothbrush, I also changed my toothpaste to Jason's Healthy Mouth. After using the new toothbrush & toothpaste for approximately three months, I visited my Hygienist for a cleaning. Unprompted, she told me that I had the healthiest teeth/gums of any of her patients. And that assessment still holds true after almost two years.
One last note: If you've got a youngster who needs to learn to brush all quadrants w/o applying too much pressure, purchase an extra toothbrush head and let your child give it a try. It worked for my guy.
Customer Review: Excellent product
Summary: 5 Stars
I had a similar one from the same manufacturer 10 years ago, its still going strong(motor, the metal tip, charging base, etc) but the handle was falling apart so decided on getting a new one.
Pros:
-Higher frequency on the motor than the previous model(this seems to make a heck a lot of difference).
-Better design with a slight curve in the middle to help reach the back of the molars(very nice).
- Does the job and does it darned well.
Cons:
-Brush Handle is a little too slippery when wet. I understand the handle was changed to a plastic one this time cause the previous soft handle was better for grip but I guess wouldn't last a long time(7 or more yrs for someone like me).
-The attached timer is ok but a waste of time. I thought it would actually KNOW how long the upper teeth are cleaned vs the lower by the tilt and angle of the handle. I guess I was expecting too much and reading too little of the product reviews :).
Customer Review: Best tooth cleaning without going to the dentist!
Summary: 5 Stars
A dentist cleaning without going to the dentist! This is a great toothbrush! Talk about professional, Oral-B wasn't kidding when they named this toothbrush.
I researched, on consumer reports and feedbacks, and was torn between this Oral-B toothbrush and the UV Sanitizer Sonicare. They were both rated highly, but had an older version of a Sonicare for 6 years that putter out. So I opted for this new Oral-B, and what a pleasant surprise!
The coffee stains on the backside of my teeth that the Sonicare couldn't get, are disappearing w/this toothbrush. Although it could be said that the Oral-B's smaller toothbrush head makes you brush longer (Sonicare's toothbrush head is larger) and or reaches hard to clean areas. Either way, the stains are going away now since I brush a Minimum of 4 minutes 2 X's a day (w/Sonicare I brushed the standard 2 minutes 2X's a day).
Thanks Oral-B! I would highly recommend this toothbrush ; )
Customer Review: Well-Built and Nicely Designed
Summary: 5 Stars
[...]. I looked through all of the models and this seemed to be the best buy even though I wasn't really interested in the advanced features.
I am very pleased with the product. The build quality is excellent. Battery life is very good (I don't leave the charger plugged in, but instead charge to full charge and then let it run down.) I believe I am easily getting 2 weeks to a charge or more.
I didn't think I cared about the wireless remote display or the battery life display, but I fine myself using both of them. The Smiley face at the end of two minutes is always a joy to see.
Of course I didn't read all of the instructions and I originally thought there might be a problem when the brush pulsed to indicate moving to the next section of teeth. Again, this is a nice design and allows you to know how long you have been brushing without looking at the timer.
Very nice product, well build, well designed.
Customer Review: Worth It
Summary: 5 Stars
At first i was skeptical if this product was worth it. I've used this product over 6 months now, and i think its worth it.
I had weak gums because of poor brushing, my dentist had me on a 3 month check up! after is started using this product im back to the normal 6 months!
For me the timer on the screen is helpful, i would try to cut short my brushing time. since i've got this i brush 2 min plus everytime, hence helping my teeth and gums.
If you dont have problem doing 2 min, you can probably opt for the non-screen version.
Since i've started using this, I've never floss and i still keep it pretty good (although its recommended to do so). The floss-action head is amazing, clean like a charm. I defiantly like the clean feeling that i get after brushing.
the whiting head just keeps the toothpaste in place.
For an average person this toothbrush is the bomb.
(amazon service was great as usual)
