Customer Reviews of Philips Sonicare Elite e9500 Custom Care Power Toothbrush
Customer Review: Cleans Much Better Than Manual Brushing
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a long-time Sonicare user of 13 years. I got this toothbrush (Philips Sonicare Elite e9500) because my old Sonicare Advance 4100 toothbrush finally conked out on me after 13 years (I suspect that its Nickel Cadmium battery has finally used up its recharge cycles since Nickel Cadmium batteries have a finite number of recharge cycles (about 1000)).
I have had my Sonicare Elite for almost 3 years and I couldn't be more happy with it!
Does Sonicare Work?
YES! 31,000 BSPM is, patently, many many more brush strokes per minute than what any mere human is capable of producing with a manual toothbrush. Sonicare cleans so well that whenever I run my tongue across the surfaces of my teeth after every brushing, it feels like I've just had my teeth professionally cleaned by a dentist - no more gritty tooth surfaces resulting from the buildup of plaque and/or tartar!
Replacing The Brush Head
Replace your brush head every 3-6 months with the E-Series (Elite series) Brush Head Replacement.
I can't stress this enough: Replace That Brush Head!
Sonicare performs only as well as the brush head allows it to! Don't try to stint on brush head replacements. Philips recommends replacing the brush head every 6 months. I find that the brush head starts to show signs of wear after only 3 months - the performance of Sonicare starts to degrade and the cleaning action of the Sonicare becomes noticeably less effective. I'd say change the brush head every 3-6 months.
Sure, the price for brush heads is steep - so the question is: How much is oral hygiene worth to you? More important, how much is your general health and wellbeing worth to you? Oral bacteria and gum disease has been conclusively linked with a whole host of health problems including heart disease, pancreatic cancer and other bodily ills. (Sound far-fetched? Google it and read about it for yourself!)
Newer Model
The Sonicare FlexCare is the latest incarnation of Sonicare's Power Toothbrush. If, however, you already own the Philips Sonicare Elite, you'll be happy to know that the Sonicare Elite works just as well as the Sonicare FlexCare. The differences are (i) The Sonicare FlexCare comes with a UV sanitizer for sanitizing the brush head. (ii) The diameter of the brush handle of the Sonicare FlexCare is smaller and provides a more comfortable grip, especially if you have smaller hands.
The Verdict
You really have to try the Sonicare Elite Power Toothbrush to see for yourself what a FANTASTIC job it does of cleaning your teeth!
