The Sonicare Toothbrush
After making my new Products category, I went in search of a post that I was sure I’d written about the Sonicare toothbrush. After not being able to find such a post, I am going to make one now.
The Sonicare electric toothbrush from Philips has been around for many years now. I am here to say that is nothing short of absolutely fantastic. I have used one for a few years now and am still brushing with the older Advance 4100 model. I recommend that everybody own and use one. For one, it encourages you to brush your teeth for a longer time than you’d probably spend with a manual toothbrush. The fast vibrating brush head moves the brush at hundreds of times per second, giving you the best teeth cleaning that you can get at home. It feels great while it is running and is actually fun to use. I like to refer to the experience as “a shower in your mouth.” It leaves your teeth and gums with the pure clean feeling that you only get when leaving the dentist. I believe the value of the main unit and the replacement heads are all well worth the price. If the heads initially seem expensive, keep in mind that they last longer than your typical manual toothbrush does, and that you can save by buying two or more heads at one time.
Today, Philips has many Sonicare models to choose from. If you aren’t using at least one of them, then you are simply missing out.
Ironically, my trusty Sonicare toothbrush broke not long after I wrote this post. I don’t know what happened to it. I have been without one for a couple of months now. For Christmas, I bought me and Laura a new one. This time, I opted for the more expensive 5500 Elite model. It has a few more bells and whistles, like a battery indicator, tilting brush heads that are longer, etc. It is even better than the one we used to have! Everyone needs one of these, and I don’t mean any old run-of-the-mill electric toothbrush. It has to be the Philips Sonicare. Accept no substitutes!
