Is an electric toothbrush worth it?

I have a sonicare toothbrush and I think it does a better job than I could ever do with a regular brush. Teeth feel soooo clean.

seriously they are an awsome investment.

My cheapass Oral B electric is about 20 times better than any normal brush I ever had.

So yeah, they're totally worth it.

Oral-B reprezentz.... So what's the diffence between high dollars Sonicare vs Oral-B? I had it for a while now, and have replace a few heads.... batteries last about a month with regular brushing.

I tried a couple cheapo ones and hated them, back to the regular manually powered model for me.

I was in the same boat...but seriously try the sonicare...not only do your teeth feel clean, but mine got a lot whiter as well.

As lazy as it sounds, electric seems to take less effort.

i used to have the crest spinbrush.. worked fine until the batteries died.. and then i went back to the usual brush.

The spin brush took a while to get used to.. but it did a half decent job. I want to try out the sonic brush.

where can u get a good soniccare? and which model? and how much will it cost?

23 years and counting with a standard manual toothbrush brushing once a day.

0 cavities or fillings or problems. So for someone like me an electric toothbrush would be a waste of money.

$6 crest

CR runs a test awhile back and found even the best performing model (Sonicare Elite) is no better in removing plaque than regular toothbrush (80%). The other cheaper model fares worse. (60-70%)

Another vote for sonicare. Your mouth feals NOTICEBLY cleaner, and my dentist noticed too.
