Review (5/5): Electric Toothbrush, Electric Flosser Are Real Deal
This PHILIPS SONICARE ESSENCE+ TOOTHBRUSH & AIRFLOSS ELECTRIC FLOSSER (Value Bundle) is the real deal. The sonic toothbrush gets your teeth cleaner than a manual toothbrush, because of the vibrating brush head and the 2-minute timer that tells you when you’ve brushed long enough. A nice feature is that the color on the brush head bristles fades to let you know that the brush head is worn out and needs replacing.
The electric flosser works really well--maybe not quite as well as string floss, but it’s definitely better than poking into gaps between teeth with a toothpick on a handle. The flosser is good for cleaning under my bridge, which needs to be kept really clean to prevent gum irritation and swelling.
