Customer Reviews of Oral B S-320 Sonic Complete Rechargeable Power Toothbrush
Customer Review: Drain the battery completely...
Summary: 5 Stars
This was my first electric toothbrush -- both my wife and I use it extensively and have been very pleased with it. As many others have statedin reviews here, it's easy to use, comfortable, well made, and reliable.
A few things that other electric toothbrush neophytes might appreciate knowing:
- It's not much different to use this than a regular toothbrush, just slightly less pressure and slower wrist motions.
- You use regular toothpaste.
- Especially notable when you first start using it, using the Sonic Complete makes your teeth feel shiny-clean like they would after a dental cleaning.
- The vibrations from the brush feel odd at first but especially at the "soft" setting, you get used to them very quickly.
The only thing at all "off" about the product is that it uses NiCad batteries, which are a toxic waste item that can't be thrown out, a problem when the product gets older. These NiCad batteries are slow to recharge, also, if you don't throw it on the charger every night as the manufacturer recommends. A recharge from a week's worth of twice daily use takes about 8-10 hours. Drain the battery completely, and the recharge takes about 24 hours.
Despite that minor quibble, this is a wonderful product and I whole-heartedly recommend it.

A recent visit to the dentist suggested I needed to consider a new brushing method. I'm just too hard on my gums with a standard toothbrush in hand. I like them to be clean you know!

First brushing - incredible! Never had my teeth feel so clean after a 2 minute brushing. It's actually relaxing and painless.
Maybe any Sonic Toothbrush (Sonic Complete from OralB or SonicCare?) would have done. But this unit does the trick for me.
Customer Review: Along with flossing my teeth feel wonderful.
Summary: 5 Stars
My teeth were noticeably whiter after only 3 days of use. It's been about a month since I bought this product and I couldn't be happier. The bristles are soft but don't get frayed like a regular toothbrush does. After every brushing it feels like I've just walked out of the dentist. Along with flossing my teeth feel wonderful. I don't feel there's a need though for the massage option so I wish I got the cheaper product that didn't come with massage (I think it's the S300). Plus if you compare this to the Sonicare, the brush heads on the Oral B cost less and the unit itself costs less too. I'm definitley happy with my buy!Customer Review: Mine came with a carry case that holds the brush unit and 2 heads...
Summary: 5 Stars
This fantastic brush has revolutionized the way I brush my teeth. I'm the kind of person who has poor time perception, and thus rarely brushed my teeth long enough with a manual toothbrush. About 6 months ago, I decided to make a change for better health, and invested the $100 it cost me at the time for the Oral B Sonic Complete with 3 power levels. My teeth and gums have never been so clean and healthy.
---GREAT for people who like the feeling of extra-clean teeth without damaging their gums.
---Excellent for those with sensitive teeth and gums - the second setting, gentle, is just right.
---Good for a pick-me-up after lunch, with a "massage" power level that you can use after a quick brush.
--- TIMER - 30 second timer helps you keep track of your time; occurs as a small interruption in the vibration for the first 1.5min, and at the end of 2 minutes a longer interruption. It does not turn off until you turn it off, however, making it just fine for those who like to brush longer
The charging unit also has a holder for 3 spare heads - fewer trips to the store - and stickers to remind you when the head needs to be changed. Batter life is excellent - it appears to be exactly as advertised. Mine came with a carry case that holds the brush unit and 2 heads, excellent for travel.
All in all, I highly recommend the Oral B Sonic Complete (S-320), especially for someone switching from a manual to a sonic toothbrush. It's versatile, friendly, and holds a good charge.
