Strong Electric Toothbrushes

[fustercluck]

What's the strongest electric toothbrush out there? I got a sonicare and it's so weak it barely does anything, even on the strongest mode after being charged all night. Anyone know if there is a stronger one out there? Anyway i can make mine stronger?

Sonicare is plenty strong. You cannot feel the force it uses. If if the amplitude was increaed, it would damage the enamel on your teeth!

Cheers!

Why don't you just get the steel-wool sonicare replacements?

Sounds good, heheh. Well, i think there may be something funked up with mine. I have two of them though, and both are weak, my teeth don't feel brushed at all afterwards. Maybe it's the toothbrush head, don't think it'd matter much though.

But no one knows if there are any other stronger ones out there?

Why does it need to be strong? Just buy a real vibrator for crying out loud!

if the toothbrush head is worn then it will feel very weak

As said above, the Sonicare series is one of the best available. If your teeth don't feel clean afterwards, you may be using it wrong.

You ARE using toothpaste, right?

I bought one of the Cybersonic Toothbrushes off TV a couple of years ago, It's still working great. I am surprised I haven't had to replace the batteries in it yet... I am assuming they are NiMh batteries. I saw a couple of them in Big Lots the other day on clearance... I think they were either $49 or 50% of that.

Sickos everywhere

Actually i flipped over the magnets inside the toothbrush head and it works pretty good now, wouldn't mind it being a little stronger though.
