 "Good but older style of electric brush" | 2008-12-12 |
| - Reviewed By User: A1QJO5BWBV04OP |
I've been using the Sonic Complete (with rectagular vibrating brush head) for 2-3 years now. It is a definite improvement over the various manual toothbrushes I used before. But from further discussion with the hygiene-ist, I think perhaps the newer models with round and rotating brush heads do an even better job. The cost of this one had been large enough, I decided not to change right now.
I'm also a little disappointed that replacement brush heads are so costly. I use them longer than packaging recommends. Overall, because of the improved cleaning results, I can report I'm glad to be using this electric toothbrush.

 "Nice toothbrush, poor battery life" | 2008-03-27 |

| I don't have any complaints about the performance of this toothbrush. I was happy with it until the rechargeable battery gave out 2 years and 4 months after buying it. Seems it should last longer for almost one hundred dollars. I called oral-b. They basically said to buy a new one. You cannot replace the battery. They did not come across very friendly when I spoke with them. |

| I saw the advertisement and I decided to check this out. Didn't realize how quite expensive it was, but I decided to take a chance and boy am I am glad. Totally worth the purchase price. My teeth feels cleaner, look brighter and my mouth seems fresher. I even smile more after the use of this product and I am one to never smile. It feels as if you are getting a professional cleaning everytime you use it. Not only does this thing brushes your teeth, it polishes them also. I am actually going to purchase another one so I can have one at home and one at work. Also, for famillies, all you have to do is buy more heads because everyone can use this. And this thing is totally pain free, in fact it tickles your mouth, but you will most certainly look forward to brushing. The three speeds are very nice, plus if you follow the directions and brush in quarters, it has a bit of a hesitation to let you know when to move onto the next quarter. I find this very useful if you never had proper instructions on brushing. This is, in my opinion a life changing and habit changing product. |

I got the Oral-B Sonic Complete at my dentist from some kind of mail-in free trial promotion (get a charged handle and brushhead that will last 2 weeks for free) so I gave it a try.
It does make brushing easier but I haven't really noticed a difference in how my mouth feels afterwards--if anything it doesn't feel as clean but that might be just how I am used to manual brushing. Who knows? It's not truly sonic--it's really just a faster (though it has 3 speeds so not really) power toothbrush. TRUE sonic speeds wouldn't even shake/vibrate the bristles!
If you can get one of these free from your dentist, you can just go to [...] and order a charger for $12. ;) You can even order the handles ($46), brushheads ($9 each but cheaper on eBay), and even a travel case there, too. (Why does this thing cost ~$100 in stores??)
Now if I can only find a manual for it...if you have one (or if you wouldn't mind scanning it and, perhaps, creating a PDF file for it--or just the scanned images would suffice if not), please email me at [...]). Thanks! |

This toothbrush is amazing. Initially, I thought it was going to scrub my teeth out of my mouth, making me feel uncomfortable using it. After a few day's worth of continous brushing, my teeth adjusted to the device.
Let me just say that this brush is highly recommended. My girlfriend uses the Sonicare toothbrush, and side-by-side comparison, my Oral B Sonic toothbrush looks much nicer. hee hee.
Performance? The Oral B Sonic I have uses three speeds. It's about the same compared to the two speed Sonicare. Both have 30 second interval timers. The noise produced by both toothbrushes are comparable as well, although, I believe my toothbrush might be a little quieter.
We have tried out both and I have to say that I feel more comfortable with the Oral B Sonic, because Sonicare has that extra piece of plastic surrounding the brush.
Prior to using Sonic Complete, I was using Oral B's rechargeable 900 series. Sonic Complete blows it out of the water in performance. I still keep my 900 series, because Sonic Complete has one flaw... the main reason why I am not giving it a 5 star rating. Sonic Complete will shutdown automatically at full speed if the battery power is drained. Unlike my 900 series, the battery power as it drains will not weaken the toothbrush, giving you some kind of notification that it needs to be recharged. So I keep my 900 series just in case I need to recharge my Sonic Complete.
The battery power lasted at least 2 weeks from full charge. I brush my teeth at least twice a day and sometimes 3 times, depending on my mood.
Sonic Complete came with a charger, toothbrush holder, I believe two brush heads, traveling case, and a whoop-arse on plaque. |
