Oral-B PRO 2000/ PRO 2 - 2000N CrossAction Electric Toothbrush Rechargeable Powered by Braun (Packaging may vary)

I am not one for going to the dentist. I am terrified. I always feel they are going to do something bad, especially as my regular toothbrush doesn't seem to do much. But after a friend of mine told me about Oral-B electric toothbrushes I thought I would have a look. Wow sorry this almost sounds like a commercial where I'm following a poorly written script and trying to shove a product in your face. Actually I'm trying to describe it as best I can. I like this toothbrush a lot. Sad I know. Maybe it means I've become a boring old adult now. But there is something to like in this.1. It really does clean your teeth well. Now I had problems with tartar build up etc on my teeth. My bottom teeth particularly looked stained and yellowy. However, after extensive use of this toothbrush, brushing twice a day, my teeth after just 2 weeks were showing signs of improving! I was astounded! And after over 1 year of using this brush (obviously changing the heads every 3-4months) I can safely say it has worked a treat and the dentist says my teeth look great!2. For those of you with sensitive teeth or dentures, it has a sensitive setting, which is achieved by pressing the power button twice. This makes the brush slightly less powerful and allows you to clean your teeth without worry. I don't have sensitive teeth but it seems t be a hell of a difference from the regular setting and a lot less harsh which is great.3. It's easy to use. Yes I know. A toothbrush that's easy to use! Bloody hell! But seriously, some of the product descriptions on higher end brushed left me feeling a little dazed as to what it actually did and if it actually cleaned my teeth. This brush is simple. End of.4. The pressure sensor is really handy. I used to brush my teeth so hard my toothbrush would end up flat after around 3 months, same as my dads. But this brush comes with a red LED sensor on the back which flashes very brightly when you press too hard. This puts much less pressure on your teeth and gums and makes for a much more pleasant brushing experience.So without all the awful advert like jargon, it really is a nice brush. Not too expensive and easy to use. It's very satisfying!

Excellent toothbrush. Great battery life and very easy to hold. Gets to all the tight areas.

I'm very happy with my purchase!Put simply, it's a very effective toothbrush that cleans very well. The head isn't so big that you need a flip top head, nor is it so small that you need to spend ages on each tooth.It has a timer which allows for four periods of thirty seconds. You can, obviously carry on beyond those times.There are two mode settings for this brush. One is the normal setting to clean your teeth (continuous speed). The second seeing has been, apparently, designed for "gum care" and consists of a repeating pulsing of speed.There is a clearly visible red light that illuminates if you apply too much pressure when brushing.The brush heads have a decent lifespan with normal use. On average I would say that ours last around three months before requiring a replacement head.The replacement brush heads, compared to other makes and models, are reasonably also priced (at the time of writing, about £11 for four).The battery life will give you approximately seven or so days use before needing too be recharged. And with that, comes the only negative that I've found.They are unbelievably slow to recharge! They can easily take 20+ hours to fully charge! It's for that one reason alone that I've not rated this product with the full five stars. Otherwise, a good buy that I'd happily recommend to others.

Been good

My emergency dentist recommended this toothbrush to me. He said that while there are a lot of cheaper versions, I should buy ones which have a pressure sensor. Apparently a lot of people using electronic toothbrushes press down too hard without them knowing, causing damage to their gums. Probably because otherwise you feel like you're not doing anything! (Indeed, my friend said she got an electronic toothbrush without a pressure sensor which had lead her gums to start bleeding). At the beginning I noticed the red light switching on from time to time, meaning I was pressing down too hard. Now I know just how much is enough and the red light is rarely on. So this function is probably great for beginner!The next time (maybe half a year after beginning use) I went to see my regular dentist, he was pleasantly surprised to see much less plaque on my teeth and praised me for taking good care of them! I have very bad teeth (two crowns fitted at the age of 20) so it is great to hear that this has made a difference. However, I did start using this at the same time as an oral irrigator, so any benefit is probably down to the two of them combined. Two years later and I have not had to have anything else done on my teeth!I would definitely recommend this, combined with an oral irrigator (Philips), to anyone worried about their teeth. I bought it on offer for around 30 pounds and together with the irrigator, it has been a great investment which has made such a difference and a saving long-term!
