    I was so excited to be picked to review this toothbrush because I'm obsessed with white teeth! And after a few uses with this brush, I know whiter teeth are only a few days away! I love the slim design of the brush and the power it delivers. I don't think my teeth have ever felt this clean and polished, its like I just left the dentists office. I actually get excited to brush my teeth now! I've also noticed that some small plaque deposits around my gum line are disappearing after only a few uses. I am going to recommend this brush to all my friends, especially my fellow coffee drinkers to save us all from stained teeth! Great work Oral-B!

    Amazing! Simply amazing toothbrush. After just one brushing my teeth felt like that dentist clean. I like the slim lightweight design in my hand, but I would recommend they put a few more grips on the brush (dropped it the first time I used it). I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box it had enough power for a couple of brushes so was able to use it right away - it's small, but does it ever make a difference. It charged fast and holds it charge for 12 hours.

    I liked the toothbrush so much I went out and bought my husband his own toothbrush head. They were pricey at $27.99 for 3 heads 1 mini head. That would be the only real drawback, but it's high quality brushing outweighs that in the end. It's much better than a manual toothbrush and I think would be great for kids (or adults!) who aren't great brushers.

    Definitely a brush I'd recommend to my friends and family. Really impressed after just 1 week. Can't wait to see what my dentist thinks at my next cleaning appointment.

    Can you say amazing? I was selected as a tester and i literally screamed for joy! I charged it up and got on it that night, What a clean feeling! I was able to use the second setting for my tongue and cheeks, who needs a manual toothbrush?


    The feature I love - is that it has a small pulse when 30 seconds is up, letting you know it's time to move onto the next quadrant; and when 2 minutes is up - it gives 2 or 3 pulses.

    Who knew two minutes was so long and I was brushing for such little time?

    I LvOE this toothbrush!

    I was thrilled to find out that I had been chosen to review the Oral B Pulsonic toothbrush! When I received it, I charged it right away as I was anxious to get started.

    It takes approx 12 hrs to get a full charge, and you can leave it on the stand between uses.

    It is very easy to use, and I was amazed at the difference in how clean my teeth/gums felt after using it compared to a regular old tooth brush. It has 2 settings - the main one for brushing your teeth, but it also has a second, lower setting that you can use for your tounge and the roof of your mouth!

    The feature I love - is that it has a small pulse when 30 seconds is up, letting you know it's time to move onto the next quadrant; and when 2 minutes is up - it gives 2 or 3 pulses.

    I was surprised at how long 2 minutes actually is, and realized that I haven't been brushing for anywhere near that amount of time.

    I would definitely recommend this product to anyone in the market for an electronic tooth brush!

    Overall this is a great product. It's super lightweight and easy to handle. The fact that it's rechargeable is really convenient (though as one reviewer pointed out the bottom of the handle gets quite warm while charging). You can tell it does a good job cleaning, as your teeth really do feel smooth like after going to the dentist. Plus the two settings? Very smart, because you can use the sensitive/gentle cycle for your gums or if your teeth are feeling sensitive that day.

    Does it clean better than a regular toothbrush? I would say yes, though how much better I couldn't say without using it long term. And while I don't think I would use the smaller head very often, the fact that it comes with the brush is great. My only complaint about the performance of the brush itself is that because I have a very small mouth sometimes the buzzing bothers me. By that I mean the the unit/arm of the brush sometimes hits my teeth and vibrates, causing a bit of discomfort. Not sure how to remedy this without being extremely cautious in my teeth brushing.

    Mostly, though, I would recommend this product wholeheartedly if it weren't for the cost, which I find pretty steep. I understand that the unit itself is an investment, but then having to pay for new heads (minimum $5 per head) adds to the cost even more. If cost isn't an issue for you, absolutely check out this unit. I love the design of it and the way it works.

    I was so excited to try this Oral B Pulsonic toothbrush because of it's slim form. The power toothbrushes I've tried in the past were just too bulky, heavy and uncomfortable to brush with, but this was not the case with Pulsonic. I love this brush, it is comfortable, easy to hold and powerful. I love that it has 2 brushing modes - clean & sensitive. I use the sensitive because powerful is a bit too strong for me. I also love that the head of the brush is small and comfortable for anyone to use. It's great that it's rechargable so you never have to worry about running out of batteries and don't have the bulkiness of a battery compartment. I also love that it has a 2 minute time that signals at 30 second intervals to encourage thorough brushing throughout your mouth. This is definitely my toothbrush from now on, I don't think I'll ever go back to using a manual brush. I would definitely recommend this to a friend and will purchase an extra brush head to share with my boyfriend :)

    I just received this toothbrush for review today and was so excited to try it I immediately brushed my teeth! I'm happy to report: I am not disappointed.
    I wasn't expecting much. I've had power toothbrushes in the past and they ended up in a bathroom drawer after a few uses, but I think this relationship is going to be different.
    It doesn't look like much in the box, but after giving it an hour to charge, I unleashed it's power and went to work on my teeth. I was skeptical, it's pretty loud. So, after putting it under the tap, slapping on some toothpaste, I stuck it in my mouth before turning it on. There are two settings, regular and sensitive. I went with regular.
    I used circular motions, just like I would with a manual toothbrush. Every 30 seconds it pauses to tell you to move on to the next quadrant of your mouth, fool proof! After two minutes, I gave my teeth a last 30 second blast and turned it off.

    Complaints:
    - My nose tickles the entire time I brushed, but it's something I can live with.
    - The handle gets pretty hot while it's charging, so I think I won't leave it charging all the time.
    - I didn't pay for mine, but I was pretty shocked to see that this cost $99 in Canada! The replacement heads cost $20 for a package of 4. A little pricey, but in my opinion, worth it.

    Loves:
    - My teeth feel like I just came back from a cleaning at the dentist. Seriously. I WAS NOT expecting that.
    - It comes with two different brush heads, a normal brush that's slightly smaller than your average toothbrush which I find really gets into the corners of your mouth and behind those molars. The precision brush head is even smaller and gets to work between your teeth and along your gums.
    - The whole toothbrush is smaller than other electric/battery operated toothbrushes I've had in the past, so it's really lightweight.

    Final thoughts: I probably wouldn't have bought this on my own, it's pretty pricey. However, if I knew how effective it was, I would have been persuaded. IT WORKS. It's lightweight, so your arm doesn't get tired while you take those recommended two minutes to brush all your pearly whites. I'm a convert. I would definitely recommend this to my friends, in fact, I just bought some spare brush heads so my boyfriend can use this too!
