Is there a teeth cleaning difference between the black and blue bristles? I have never used the Classis just the Legacy.

My bristles are black, never used the blue. Love my Rotodent! Much cheaper then the dentist.

I have ordered black bristles on line that did not work, but they seem to be interchangeable. My caution id about the dealer

After several years of use they were showing extreme wear so I replaced them. You stated that yours are still great after many years. Consider using the comparison, are you still using the same tooth brush after the same amount of time.

I love my Philips Sonicare and have had no other brand. I have two models of Sonicare...one that I have had for several years and one that I bought this past year. I do not think you could go wrong with any model. Check out how much the replacement brushes cost. That might make a difference for you as you should not use a toothbrush more that three months or when the blue tip of the brush is no longer blue.

I agree with the answer below. The healthy white has the new toothbrush so no gunk or mold will accumulate where it attaches to the unit. If you don't have a need for the features of the Diamond Clean, I wouldn't upgrade. All Sonicare tooth brushes clean equally as well. I have been using one model or another for over 20 years. It's merely a matter of options available with the different models. I personally believe that Sonicare is the best toothbrush available, whatever the model.

No difference....they all do the same thing I think the only difference is the brush attachments some are softer than other..this one is just right not too soft or too hard...

Hello! The differences are mostly cosmetic. Both toothbrushes have the same body, motor, and charger. The older model (02) is red, and comes with three face plate options and two heads (one large, one small). The newer model (07) is blue, and comes with eight face plate options but only one head (large).I actually would recommend the older model over the new, at least currently, because it's cheaper and comes with the two different brush sizes.

Only Phillips can tell you for sure about this compatibility, but I was using the Pro-results brush, and the Diamnond-Clean brush head fit that handle just fine. Hard to keep up with all the various model numbers Phillips has for these "tooth maintenance" systems! One Phillips site listed Diamond-Clean on a 6921 model, so if handle end is similar to 6930 there's a good chance it will fit. If it does not fit, I expect that Amazon would exchange it for you (and Phillips has a 90 day "like it or your money back" policy, too).

Yes, this is my question, too. I got an outdated Sonicare Intelliclean as a gift and cannot find replacement heads for it. However, I loved the sonic cleaning. Since it's fairly expensive, I'm trying to read all the comments/research that I can. The top 2 seem to be Phillips Sonicare Elite 7500 and the Oral B Triumph 9400. The Oral B cames out a shade ahead in some research, but I read that it does NOT have the sonic clean feature.

The only difference is the brush head. You can change it with any of the other brushes. The back is a different color then the one that comes with the other brush. I have the other one my husband has this one. He uses the regular head brush on his. Hope this helps.

I have the oral b 3756, it is a rechargeable base but I don't know if it is the deep sweep brush.

I am not too sure about the differences. My dentist provided me with the diamond clean when I bought the unit, and I really like diamond. I like the size (it's compact in brissel size) and shape of the brush. Sorry I couldn't be more help!

Sonicare Elite 9800 = The Best Much like the 7500(except it comes with a travel case & a couple other extras.) They also come with the updated angled brush heads that get those hard to reach areas. The 9500 is the slightly outdated newer model with the travel case. Hope this at least gets you started in your quest for better teeth & gums.

The Oral B is an Excellent toothbrush. I don't know anything about the Phillips, but if I were buying another toothbrush, it would be the Oral B.

I believe the base is a the same (Oral B 5000). The difference is in which brush head you will get. So with the Professional care 5000, you get the professional care brush tip. With the 5000 deep sweep, you get the deep sweep brush head. Any of the brush heads will work on a Oral B 5000, so whichever one you get, if you wished you had gotten the other, just buy the other brush head.

From what I can see the Nanolonic Mineral has been locked into the bristles whereas the other one doesn't have that. I have the one with the blue handle, but I think I might try the silver classic to see how it works. It sounds a little more efficient, but have not used it. Good Luck!!

As far as I know there are no other differences. I love my brushless version though, would highly recommend it over the brushed version.
