Lightweight, rechargeable sonic toothbrush
I've used an electric toothbrush for years, although I mostly pickup one of the inexpensive Oral B models sold at the grocery store for under $10. Rechargeable models with very fast vibrations are usually much more expensive and can be almost $100. I was attracted to the features and affordability of this toothbrush.<br /><br />This sleek, lightweight toothbrush is charged over USB and lasts a month or so on a single charge. It has multiple modes/speeds from a normal brush to polishing and buildup removal. The higher modes have a pulsing sensation rather than just vibrating at one speed. It comes with 6 brush heads so you can replace one every two months for a year's worth of brushing. While you're brushing, the toothbrush signals every 30 seconds to change to a different quadrant of your mouth so that you use it for the full 2 minutes that dentists and the manufacturer recommend.<br /><br />When you use this type of sonic toothbrush for the first time, the vibrations can be either pleasantly stimulating or somewhat irritating depending on your gums, but you become used to it over time. I'm not sure how much better this brush cleans than a manual toothbrush or one whose vibrations aren't quite as fast, but it certainly leaves your teeth feeling very clean and fresh.
