Braun Vitalty is very different from Philips Sonicare
At first I thought it wasn't doing anything because its not as powerful as a sonicare. However after two days use I am impressed favorably. It is not a vigorous brushing like sonicare. Its more like a massage for your teeth and gum. My mouth is just as clean yet feels better afterwords.<br /><br />I tossed my sonicare for three reasons.<br />1) it stopped holding a charge for long after a years' use<br />2) the replacement brushes cost too much<br />3) I can feel the electromagnetic field (emf) coming off the sonicare base a foot away.<br />An annoyance I put up with for a year so I am not that sensitive but finally had enough.<br />4) I don't want to be gripping a battery while brushing. If you are a person who can't wear a battery powered watch you know what I mean. OK, that's a 4th reason.<br /><br />Some people feel emf's some don't. I happen to be one who does feel them after a while.<br />Fortunately the Braun's base has a comparatively tiny emf and the battery is much smaller and located at the end of the handle where it may be easily avoided.
