Philips Sonicare E-Series Replacement Brush Head Review
(1) My best friend has been raving about his Sonicare Elite for over a year now– encouraging me to try it. I did a little research and saw that OralB had a similar product and wondered which had a better product– Sonicare or Oral B. My friend finally convinced me that the Sonicare product is superior, and then I read a review on Amazon from a hygenist who said that she went to a continuing education seminar and learned that Oral B was found to be superior…
At that point, I decided to do some research. I found a Northwestern University study conducted over a 6 month period. Patients with the Sonicare did much better, but don’t take my word for it. Read the study results for yourself on the National Institute of Health web site:
[...]
“Overall, this study demonstrates that long-term use of these two electric toothbrushes improves periodontal health in adult periodontitis patients, and that the Sonicare brush is superior to the Braun [Oral B] brush in reducing gingival inflammation and probing depth. Moreover, 6 months’ use of Sonicare led to actual improvement in probing attachment levels of periodontal pockets.”
(2) Replacement heads ARE expensive, but compared to dental visits and cavity repairs they’re a drop in the proverbial bucket. The first few times you use an electric brush with these heads your mouth will likely feel as if it’s all a-buzz. Don’t panic and don’t give up. Keep using the brush and it’ll pass in few short days. My dentist praises my teeth now that I’ve been using this system for several years. My gums and teeth are cleaner, brighter, and cavity-free.
