My old Sonicare E-series finally went out (on vacation by the way) after probably around 10 years, and brushing with a regular toothbrush felt weird!

As soon as I got home I did a little research and purchased this to replace it.  I'm so glad I did!  The handle is thinner than my last one and somewhat more maneuverable because of it.  I like the 30-second timer to switch sides, and the speed/strength adjustability is also useful.

The battery charge lasts forever (or probably a few weeks... I charge it about once a week just because I have no idea when it needs to be charged).

I haven't had this long enough to get my dentist's comment, but he liked the effects of the last Sonicare I had (healthy gums and teeth... no cavities in many years and I drink a lot of coffee and smoke), so this one should give me even better results!

I haven't figured out how to use the whitening button yet and I guess as soon as I find where I put the instructions I'll get on that to find out!

Great! Was hesitant at first because I have very sensitive teeth, but I decided to go for it and prepped myself with Sensodyne.

Doesn't irritate at all, and my teeth are definitely getting whiter after every use!

Very powerful toothbrush!  With the softest toothbrushes available, it made my teeth hurt for the rest of the day after the first use.  When I tried a "barely touch" method (actually, didn't even feel like I was touching my teeth) there was no pain, and my teeth came out feeling like I just got them cleaned at the dentist's office.  However, after a couple of months of use I no longer use this toothbrush.  For me there are two problems:
1.  I just barley feel the toothbrush on my teeth and yet this product causes my teeth to hurt for days afterwards, now.
 2.  I can't seem to get the toothbrush at the back of my bottom teeth at the right angle to clean them well.  When I tilt the tip of the brush downward the brush works, but the toothbrush handle is too long and it hits my upper mouth.  This strain and mouth contortions causes all the fluid to fall out of my mouth!  Sounds funny I know, and I suppose it is if you were looking at me.  That's ok, but the bottom line is that it discourages me from using this tooth brush.

I clean my teeth very well, normally.  But because of the above problems I started skipping the back of my bottom teeth and this is not good!

Conclusion:
This toothbrush does a great job on cleaning the teeth where it works smoothly, but the brush and handle on it are just too long to give individual teeth the thorough attention I like to give them.  I am going back to the round brush electric toothbrush by Oral B.  And forget the powerful "sonic" type system.  In my opinion, the tarter control electric toothbrush works just as well.  I just wish Oral B had softer toothbrushes, even their softest are not soft enough for me.

Teeth feel much cleaner after using this than a manual toothbrush. I use the White setting because it adds two 15 seconds at the end to do the front teeth extra or hit any spots u want to get again before the brush turns off. The lowest intensity seems to be all I need. Been using for 2 weeks and haven't had to charge it yet. Will wait for it to die or light to tell me battery is dead before I charge to extend battery life. I SWEAR my teeth looked whiter after only using it twice... probably the placebo affect. I feel like this will save me money on dentist visits. My oral hygienist recommended spending around "$100 for a quality Philips Sonicare" brush. I got this and love it!

I ended up having a large bone spur in my Molar Tooth in the back, The Dentist who pulled the tooth did not know what she was doing, part of it was her Dental Chisel went right thru my socket, The Pain was unimaginable and to make matters worse I went to an oral Surgeon and he wanted $650.00 to remove the Bone Spur, that's when I came home and ordered Hurricane Watermelon, It numbed up the area Perfectly and I was able to remove the Bone Spur myself, so I'm officially a Red Neck Tooth Puller, Thank you Hurricane, I made sure to get the 2 pack so I would have extra's

I have a 7lb Japanese Chin dog. They're a smooshed face breed similar to pekinese. Anyone who's been the parent of one knows that they're teeth are small, their mouths are crowded and the short nasal passage lends itself to killer breath. When I adopted my Chin he already had really bad teeth at 10 months old. His gums started bleeding and I spent close to $300 on a dental cleaning. That helped tremendously but had to be constantly followed up with brushings. Because of Griffin's tiny mouth it was impossible to get a tooth brush in there, and I could never clean them effectively. For a long time I gave all my dogs the Greenies dental bones, but Griffin also suffers from allergies to corn and wheat. Let's just say, the make him a gas giant. Guess what, Greenies contain wheat. I was back at square one. The owner of an awesome shop in East Cobb called Dog City Bakery, recommended this product. I didn't really expect it to work, but I'm a sucker for "goodies" for my three babies. Wonder of wonders, it works like a charm. I couldn't believe it. I've only been using it for about a month now and the tartar build up on their teeth is gone. I started out with an 8 oz bottle but am buying the gallon. It's so rare to find a product that actually accomplishes what it claims. I wish I could tell everyone about this stuff!

My dog enjoyed the dentastix, but grew a set of hideously freakish human appearing teeth.  Smiles grotesquely now and I'm afraid to go to sleep at night for fear of seeing those uber white, practically glowing teeth in my nightmares.

I always thought I could just brush my tongue with the toothbrush head. Never again- this literally changed my life. And my breath.

I have used the Sonicare toothbrush that I got as a kid in the early 2000s, and I found that the quality of plaque removal has been steadily dropping for some time. I guess this is to be expected for a electric tooth brush that's over 10 years old, but I decided that it was time for a change.

I got the Deep Sweep 1000 for Christmas, and I have never been happier. My brushing habits for the past few months have not been up to par. I started using the Deep Sweep on Christmas Day with a dentist appointment on New Years Eve. When I started using it I knew that my gums had become over sensitive since flossing had started causing bleeding.

By the time I had my cleaning appointment, the hygienist and dentist couldn't complement me enough on how clean my teeth were. The hygienist told me that it looked like my teeth had recently been professionally cleaned!

I cannot recommend this tooth brush enough, although the more expensive one would be nice with its timer and such, but all that is unnecessary. Buy this tooth brush and never have your dentist ask you how often your floss or brush again!

I bought this and was surprised when my teeth hurt after just one brushing. I tried it out for a few more days and they got worse. I had to stop using it. I sent it back as it was guaranteed, but never got my money back. If you want to try it, get it at a store so you can take it back if you don't like it.

I have been a huge Waterpik fan for years, since I came into possession of an older model a while back. It was ugly and made a heck of a racket, but it had great pressure. A few months ago it started spitting out little black specks--chunks of gasket rubber, as I understand--so I ditched it and started looking for a new model. I had this one in my Amazon cart for months, thinking I'd eventually get around to purchasing it when I could spare a couple of extra dollars... Recently I went for a dental cleaning and, despite daily flossing, it was the second worst of my life...so I bought the Ultra. I like the smaller footprint and the higher tank capacity, and I love the quieter pump. My gums feel great. I'd prefer more pressure, but then, I think I wouldn't be satisfied unless it went to 11 and was able to blast my teeth out of my head. There are more attachments than I need, but I like that they're hidden away in the tank lid. I have another cleaning next week, so we'll see how that goes. Whatever the outcome, I'm happy with my Waterpik Ultra.

Update: Everything went very well.

No, not my teeth. Though that's a good idea to save on dental bills.

I was using these pliers to take off an old sink trap and a few of the teeth broke right off on the pipe, rendering this thing totally useless. It couldn't get a good grip on anything after that. I returned this POS and went out and bought myself a real Channellock and it worked great.

after one day of use, i used it a 3 times the first day... my gums have already quit bleeding so bad. they have been bleeding for the past few months. i used it yesterday, and today i brushed my teeth with no blood and i feel relieved.  after using it, i found out i had bad parts on my gums that i had no idea about, and it released a few pockets of blood and made me nervous.

i bet this helps with bad breath too, i did not realize how bad my gum line really was.

yes it is a little messy with the water, but to me it is like "so what" ... it is a little loud but not bad in my opinion, i really don't even think about it.

the water presser will shoot water all the way across the room, really it works better then i expected, i tested it on some scum on my sink, it works real well, low medium pressure has been strong enough for my gums, i am sure with time the motor might weaken.

i feel confident i will have a water flosser of some sort until i die or something like that, i am relieved to have it, and definitely recommend it.

I have a few impacted teeth, and I didn't think a sonic brush would make a difference, but it really does!  I have less tooth and gum pain and don't even need to use sensitive toothpaste as often!

I do have an issue in which you can't leave this toothbrush plugged in constantly.  It gets VERY WARM.  The manufacturer says simply fully charge it, then leave it unplugged until you need to charge it again (theoretically this IS better for the battery, since a full cycle is consistently established so the battery will keep capacity better and work cleaner).

I get AT LEAST a week of brushing (2x a day, plus an occasional spot up) before a recharge, so it's not too much of a big deal.  It also starts turning off a cycle or two prematurely when it gets low (just turn it back on to finish), so you know to plug it in after that use.  However, even though it is a budget-priced model this is a major oversight.  Hot electronics bother me.

*update 01/29/16*

DON'T BUY THIS TOOTHBRUSH.  It is outdated and the replacement heads now cost the amount of a new toothbrush!
Oral-B Pro 1000 is the new way to go, and it doesn't overheat/overcharge like this one does!

Per my dentists recommendation - she knows I'm a lazy flosser, I ordered this one and my teeth and gums are happier now. I have a bridge on my lower right side and its a pain to floss it with those specialized floss sticks so this is a good purchase and my dentist couldn't be happier.
