Customer Reviews of Oral-B Professional Care 1000 Power Toothbrush

Customer Review: The dentist will notice (mine did) but some warnings on use
Summary: 5 Stars

Plus Points

1. This brush has both rotary in and in-out pulsation. This is the combination that is better than rotary-only and that studies show gives better results.
2. The replacement heads have an indicator that shows wear (the bristles become white. When the decolorization on the bristles is down to about 1/8 inch, it's time to change the head.)
3. There is a timer to let you know you have brushed 2 minutes (recommended brushing time.)
4. It does feel like "after the dentist cleaned" if you go the whole 2 minutes.

Minus Points

1. If you don't recharge according to the manufacturer's recommendation initially, you will not have a long battery life.
2. The manufacturer doesn't make this entirely clear, but you should run the charge DOWN on the brush, then recharge, for maximum life. If you don't do this, you could experience a short life-span on this toothbrush. This happened to someone I know; the company made good on the guarantee and sent a replacement.
3. If you DO let the charge run down, the brush is not so vigorous at the end and it seems a bit wimpy to do a really good job near the tag-end of the battery charge.
4. You should go the 2 minutes for effective use, but who likes to stand there, spitting foam and grimacing in the mirror for that length of time?
5. You should use it gently or you can scratch your gums.
6. The replacement heads are a bit expensive.

Despite the minus points, I rate this toothbrush five stars because I love how my teeth feel and it makes flossing afterwards better because I seem to have less tartar buildup. I am considering a second one to keep in my bag at work. I hate to brush with anything else.

Highly recommended
