Review (5/5): What A Fantastic Toothbrush
I used a regular toothbrush for many many years but never felt that I ever got my teeth really clean. I could always feel just a little of the plaque or the slightly gritty coating in a few spots - especially on my back teeth where it's always been hard for me to brush adequately with a regular toothbrush. The hygenist would always get these areas squeaky clean during my regular 6-month checkups/cleanings, but the buildup would eventually start in again. A couple of years ago I bought a battery-operated toothbrush (Crest) and it did a much better job of cleaning my teeth. However, I spent almost as much money on batteries during that period that what it cost me to buy my new Oral B. I finally decided to bite the bullet and purchase a "real" electric toothbrush. I did a lot of research and settled on the Oral B. Although I have a couple of friends who purchased the Oral B and love it, I'll admit that I had some reservations up front as to whether I would be happy with it.
However, in a nutshell, I could tell the first time I used it that this was the toothbrush for me. I was totally amazed at how well it cleaned my teeth - especially the hard-to-reach spots in the back. My teeth have never felt this clean before except immediately after professional cleaning. I absolutely love it and I would recommend it to anyone.
