First, I just want to acknowledge how lucky I was to be chosen for this trial, and thank BR for the opportunity. Thank you, Team! This toothbrush is amazing. I feel like I've been to the dentist for a thorough clean every day.
Opening the box, I'll admit to feeling a little daunted. There were so many attachments, and the instruction leaflet was a lot thicker than I was expecting. But after a quick read-through, it became clear there was nothing to fear! The reason for the extended instruction manual is for all the extra bells and whistles this toothbrush offers, but for everyday, they aren't necessary.
The set-up of the app on my phone was simple with the bluetooth within the brush syncing immediately. The app then takes you through set-up in a few quick and easy steps. I highly recommend not skipping this step, as this is where you'll get the superior clean.
The app will ask you to brush first. This is to 'teach' it how you brush, and then it will give you a coverage percentage score. I was horrified to be given a score of 85%. So, 15% had been missed or cleaned too lightly all these years! Never fear, the app and brush combined will take you through a thorough routine, complete with real-time imagery of where and how each section of teeth are being brushed. The sensors in the brush itself tell you if you're brushing too hard or too light, and the picture on the app 'sparkles' when you've achieved the perfect attention to each section. I found this to be invaluable, and am pleased to report with this help, I'm now achieving a 100% score, and I'm left with teeth that feel like I've just visited the dentist for a clean. So smooth and shiny! I'm looking forward to prolonged use of this super-brush to see what other benefits it'll give me over time. Less plaque build-up, better over-all healthy mouth, and whiter teeth is what I'm expecting if these early results are anything to go by.
I have always wanted an electric toothbrush but after looking at many, never bought one. I was sooo excited, privileged, and grateful to be able to trial this one.
It comes in a box with extra heads and plugs, and a charging case for travelling which is very cool. It sits on a magnetic charger, and once fully charged lasts for days.
It is shiny black and classy looking. It has several settings on it and reminds me of star trek for teeth! It even stops if I press too hard on it.
So far I've only been using the 'clean' and whitening' settings. I love them both. The brushing is firm and fast and does a remarkable job of cleaning. My teeth feel clean and look clean, and my mouth feels like it does after a dentist clean. Actually maybe even better.
What I've noticed is that I'm motivated to clean my teeth for longer and more often as it feels so nice when I'm done. Having the toothbrush remind me when I'm done is a great feature, as it has a timer on it and if I don't brush long enough it does a frowny face!
In my opinion my teeth look whiter already and feel so much better, and my mouth feels more healthy. I drink a lot of tea and coffee so my teeth get stained from those, and it's great to see the staining disappearing.
I don't think I can live without one of these now that I've tried it. It is making a huge difference. Even the price tag won't deter me as it feels like a worthwhile investment for such superior dental care.
I'm not sure what's normal for electric toothbrush use, but I've found leaning over the sink while cleaning is a good idea to stop the risk of spilling toothpaste on my clothes.
I very highly recommend this toothbrush. It's one of those top-shelf products that I would never regret purchasing. It truly is wonderful.
Tips: Use at least twice per day with a good toothpaste.
